A bed is always an object that takes up quite a lot of space in the interior. The organization of the space of a child's room becomes especially relevant, especially in a small apartment. Children are more active by nature than adults, they need space for active games.

If the room is partitioned by sleeping places, it is inconvenient and dangerous.

Thoughtful assembly and selection of additional parts will ensure comfort in using the pull-out bed for two. It will simultaneously save useful space and add area to the play area.

The design solution depends on the overall style of the room, the tastes and needs of its inhabitants, the gender and age difference of the children.

A regular bunk bed is not suitable for preschoolers. The second tier is quite high, which is uncomfortable for a three- to six-year-old. In the case of a roll-out bed, both levels are at a safe distance from the floor.

Types of pull-out beds for two children

Any design is simple, but at the same time it can combine comfortable sleeping places, drawers for linen, various accessories, and toys.

The bed can be additionally equipped with a table or drawers and cabinets.

There are several main modifications of such furniture.

The tiers are fastened together. The retractable lower tier moves independently. Pull-out bed equipped with drawers. Low budget model.
The lower tier is the same size as the upper one, they are connected to each other. The lower bed can be pulled out to its full width, but it is statically fixed, it cannot be moved to another place. The child sleeping on top will be forced to step over the one sleeping below. It is not attached to the upper one in any way. At night, a separate sleeping place can be placed in any corner of the room. As a rule, drawers are located in the lower tier. This is especially convenient if it is movable. In a child's room, additional storage space will never hurt. There are no drawers, which reduces the cost of the product. The lower tier is located near the floor. In this version, it is assumed that the structure is equipped with a thicker mattress so that the cold from below does not reach the sleeping child.

Dimensions of products

For a bed, not only the length and width are important, you need to pay attention to the height of the bottom, the presence of various devices that prevent you from falling while sleeping.

Correct dimensions guarantee long-term operation.

The size of the bed is dictated by the age of the children. Furniture is not appropriate for their height, too small or too big — equally unhelpful. But in order not to change the furniture in the nursery every few years, it would be rational to immediately install a full-size bed.

The dimensions should be from one and a half to two meters in length and up to a meter in width.

The lower tier is usually 10 centimeters shorter. The distance from the floor to the lower mattress depends on the model. If it is equipped with drawers, the sleeping area will be located slightly higher.

It can be inconvenient to get down from the upper level when the furniture is unfolded, so models are often equipped with a ladder.

With long-term use, traces from the rollers may appear on the floor surface if there is no carpet. From this point of view, it is better to choose wider rollers from the very beginning, with a larger contact area with the floor surface.

What to look for when choosing pull-out beds

  1. The bed should not be too heavy, and the child should be able to move it. A bulky structure will be troublesome for parents too. The wheels should have strong fastenings, be resistant to shock absorption, and you should also pay attention to the fittings.

Therefore, organizing the storage of all this is very important. The most common option is drawers in the lower tier of the bed. They can be of different sizes. In a pull-out box along the entire length, it is convenient to place things that cannot be rolled up or bent. Drawers of different lengths and widths can be equipped not only on the lower tier, but also on the side, steps to the upper one, if there are any. The drawers themselves can be pull-out or on rollers.
