Bunk Beds With Ladders and Slides
Whether you're outfitting siblings' rooms, maxing out your floor space or accommodating a full brood, bunk beds can make fantastic use of tiny spaces. Just keep an eye out for items like stairs that protrude out or angled ladders, slides and angled ones.
It's also an excellent idea to eliminate hanging objects from the top bunk, since they can be a strangulation risk.
Ladders
It isn't easy for adults and children to climb up into the top bunk. Although some might be enticed to simply climb up, this can create a fall risk and can be dangerous for children, people suffering from joint problems or who are older. Ladders can be a great solution to this problem and provide an easy and safe entry point for children.
There are many ladder options for kids bunk beds including straight and inclined ladders. Straight ladders connect directly to the bunk bed frame and angled ladders stand out slightly from either side. Angled ladders are an excellent option for small spaces and are a breeze to use for anyone of all ages since they allow more space when climbing up the bunk. Ladders come in different colors and styles, so you can select one that is in keeping with the color scheme of your bunk or matches your room.
Another option is to opt for bunk beds that have stairs on the side of the bunk. Stairs take up more floor space than a ladder, but they do not extend from the side of the bunk so they are a good option for rooms that have plenty of floor space. Many bunk beds for kids that have stairs also have cubbies that double as bed storage, ideal to store books, toys and pajamas.
If you are on an extremely tight budget straight ladders are a more affordable option for a bunk bed. Straight ladders may not be as durable as a stairset, however it is still sturdy and safe for children of all different ages. Stairs are more expensive however, they are versatile and can be used by kids of all ages.
The ladder can be moved to the side of the bunk bed. This minimalist design is targeted at teens, tweens and young adults. This design is available in all Maxtrix bunk sizes and heights including twin over twin full over full, and queen over queen.
Slides

When you are choosing a bunk that has a slide, take into account the size of the room and any furniture in it. Certain beds, such as the Casey Chestnut Kids' Bunk Bed with Ladder and Slide, are perpendicular and need some extra space than other types of. However, this bed also comes with the added benefit of a built-in ladder and slide for easy access to the top bunk.
Another option for adding slides to bunk beds is the Billi-Bolli Slide Tower. The Tower can be positioned on the shorter side of the bunk bed to reduce the space depth needed for a bed that has a slide. It can be reduced by 70 centimeters depending on the assembly height. This allows you install a kids bed that has slide in rooms that wouldn't normally be suitable.

They can be used as a decorative feature in the children's bedroom to increase the aesthetic appeal. Some bunk beds with stairs are also adjustable which means you can adjust the space according to your family's needs.
Some loft bed and bunk bed models are equipped with curtains that allow kids to feel as if they have their own space, even if they're sharing a room. This feature is great for kids who love to read or just dream in the peace. You can buy loft and bunk sets with curtains or create the look yourself by using curtain rods and simple drapes.
If you're struggling to find area for flooring and your children are begging for bunks, but you can't accommodate two beds, think about a corner loft. This design puts two elevated beds in a corner of the room. It allows the floor space to accommodate other furniture, such as a desk, a toy chest, or a desk.
Bunk beds with desks transform sleeping areas into cozy study areas. These bunk beds are perfect for children who need a quiet area to study or play games.

Style
The ideal bunk bed design for children will depend on the dimensions of your room as well as your child's sleeping habits. If you're working with a limited space the twin-overtwin design can save the floor space, but still allow both children to sleep together in the loft. If your ceilings are higher than average, you can choose a staggered layout. The ladder is kept at the end and leaves the top bunk bed unlocked. This allows children to climb up and back down without hitting their heads.
For rooms with larger spaces A full-over-full configuration is also a good option. It provides more storage in the form of an extensive drawer on the bottom and allows older children to sleep on the upper level without feeling like they're being left out by their younger siblings. These bunk beds are usually equipped with a staircase or ladder to the side that offers hidden storage for books and toys as well a sturdy safety rail.
If you want to keep your bunk beds basic, go with a solid color, such as white or gray. These finishes can be incorporated into any child's room whether it's a coastal or cottage theme, or a colorful palette. If you want something more appealing, then a wood finish such as cherry or walnut would be a good option. It provides warmth to an old-fashioned or farmhouse-style room and still provides plenty of visual contrast with bright colors.
Kids love decorating their rooms, and bunk beds provide a chance to show their creativity. Bunks with a slide could be the centerpiece of a fun and functional kids' bedroom. The slide will give hours of fun to your children as they slide down with their friends or send their favorite plush animal on rides.
