How to Create More Space Without Moving House
If you’re a parent of three or more children, you know only too well the struggle of trying to fit everyone comfortably into a limited space. Bedrooms become battlegrounds, clothes end up everywhere, and finding a moment of peace can be near impossible.
Moving to a larger home isn’t always financially possible, and even then, you might be sacrificing other important things like location or a preferred school catchment area. There has to be another way to make the most of your space!
A Potential Solution From Strictly Beds & Bunks
Triple sleeper bunk beds could be the perfect solution! These cleverly designed bunk beds maximise vertical space, providing three individual sleeping areas within the footprint of a single bed. But before you rush out and buy one, there are some critical factors to consider – safety, age recommendations, and realistic expectations.
At Strictly Beds and Bunks, we understand the challenges parents face when trying to accommodate multiple children in limited space. That’s why we’ve carefully designed our two triple sleeper bunk bed models to address the most common concerns and requirements parents have.
Our focus is on providing safe, practical, and space-saving solutions that work for real families.
Putting Children’s Safety First
It’s natural to feel a little apprehensive about triple sleeper bunk beds. Will the bed topple over with kids climbing up and down the ladders? Is it strong enough to hold three growing children? These worries are understandable, and that’s why safety should be your number one concern when making your decision.
Rest assured, Strictly Beds and Bunks takes the safety of your children very seriously. Our triple sleeper bunk beds are constructed from solid pine, designed to withstand the test of time, and are even suitable for adults – supporting up to 20 stone (127kg) on each base! Every bunk bed we manufacture adheres to the BS EN747:2019 Part 1&2 Standards, ensuring the highest levels of safety and quality in all our products.
Age Recommendations For Triple Sleeper Bunk Beds
Triple sleeper bunk beds aren’t suitable for all ages. Generally, the top bunk is only recommended for children six years and older. Younger children may lack the coordination and spatial awareness necessary for safely climbing and sleeping on a high bunk.
The middle bunk often doesn’t have specific age regulations. It’s important for parents to use their judgment here. Consider your child’s maturity, agility, and ability to safely navigate the ladder. If you have any concerns, it’s always better to err on the side of caution.
Realistic Expectations
While triple sleeper bunk beds are fantastic space-savers, they don’t magically create a massive bedroom. Be realistic about the amount of floor space you’ll gain and be prepared to think creatively about storage solutions. However, with careful planning and the right triple sleeper bunk bed, you can transform a cramped shared room into a functional and comfortable space for your children.
Strictly Beds and Bunks’ triple sleeper bunk beds offer several features to maximise both space and comfort:
- • Triple Tier Comfort. Offers ample sleeping space with a solid pine slatted base on each level, featuring additional supports for durability and comfort.
- • Adaptable Ladder Design. The ladder is universally designed to fit either end of the bed, providing flexibility to suit various room layouts.
- • Generous Spacing. Features a clearance of 1cm under the bed and 75cm between bunks, optimising space usage. The overall height is 198cm, and head clearance will need to be factored in on top of that.
- • Mattress Compatibility. Accepts mattresses up to 20cm thick, ensuring a snug and secure fit.
Bunk Bed Rules - Teaching Your Kids Safe Habits
While bunk beds are tons of fun, it’s important to help your children understand the difference between safe play and potential hazards. Setting a few simple rules can go a long way in keeping everyone happy and injury-free:
- • Beds are for Sleeping. Emphasise that the bunk bed is for sleeping, not a jungle gym. Discourage messing about on the ladders or top bunk.
- • One at a Time. Only one person should be on the ladder or top bunk at any given time. This helps prevent bumps and falls.
- • Slow and Steady Wins the Race. Reassure your children that it’s OK to take their time on the ladder, using both hands and feet for secure climbing.
