41. Built-in Bunk beds
For parents who want the bunk bed of their kids to be more sturdy, this is a great option for you.
For this kind of bunk bed, the maker needs to have a huge frame where the bunks are installed. In this plan, it’s as if the bunk bed is installed in a huge cabinet.
Since the bunks are “built as a whole”, there is a remote chance that the whole bed will tumble due to rough play. After all, the whole bed is heavy and wouldn’t budge easily.
Climbing to the top bunk is also not a problem, as the ladder is similar to what you can find in houses. This will give you the assurance that even if that bunk will be occupied by a younger child, there is a lower risk that the kid will miss a step and fall.
42. Built-in Bunk Beds with Unique Ladder Concept
In this bunk bed plan, the maker wants to have a built-in bunk bed for the room. But instead of placing the typical ladder, he installed the ladder steps in a rope instead.
This bunk bed style will surely appeal to kids regardless of their gender. They want something exciting and thrilling, and being able to climb and even hang in the air for a while because the ropes is an experience that they like.
For parents, there’s no need to worry though. The rope is securely attached to the ceiling and the body of the top and bottom bunks, so your kids will not swing too far that it can cause them to hit other objects or even fall.
For those who are not familiar with built-in bunk beds, the maker provided the whole process and his experience of making it in his website, enabling even beginners to follow.
