Most bunk beds offer twin over full or twin over queen configurations so your children can sleep side by side while still having their own space. A three-person bunk bed is an excellent choice, particularly in the event that the lower bunk will be used as an office or playroom during the day.


Most bunks have a ladder built into the frame or a staircase that leads to the top bunk. The ladder's height shouldn't exceed 5-6 feet from the ceiling to ensure safety. This will prevent bumps on heads while ensuring the younger child who is sleeping on the top bunk doesn't get too high.
