The Ultimate Guide to Kids' Bunk Beds
Take sleeping to new heights.
Bunk beds are a great way to save space in bedrooms where every inch matters. Since bunk bed sizes vary and there are a lot of options, use this guide to help you choose the best bunk bed dimensions for your space.
Tip: Before purchasing, place painters’ tape on the floor to mark out the bunk bed dimensions. This will help you understand how much space the bed will take up and where it will fit the best.
Small Single & Single Bunk Beds
Small single or single bunk beds typically measure up to 3ft. These bunk beds are a great space-saving option when trying to fit two beds into one room. These bunk bed sizes are the most narrow bunk bed size, making them great for smaller spaces.
Single-over-double bunk beds (aka triple sleeper bunk beds) are perfect for the mismatched duo. If your children have an age gap and share a room, save space and give them each the appropriate sized bed by opting for this bunk bed size.
A small double or double-sized bunk bed is a great option for those looking for a little more room. Full beds are typically range between 4ft and 4ft 6in, so this option offers more space to roll over than single bunk bed sizes. Be aware that double bunk beds are likely to take up quite a bit of space in your room, so be sure to measure to ensure the bed fits. Small double and double bunk beds provide the perfect setup for older children and young adults. They can also be a really great addition to a guest room for when older kids have sleepovers.
