Choosing Triple Bunk Beds

Bunk bed manufacturers had to come up with a new angle on triple bunk beds to make them both attractive and appealing, thereby satisfying the needs of a larger market. Bunk beds offering three bunks are usually L-shaped featuring two upper bunks and one bunk on the ground. If you choose to buy one of the L-shaped triple bunk beds remember to ascertain whether the manufacturer allows you the option of either left or right facing orientation.
The options available for people looking to buy triple bunks beds can be overwhelming.

Triple bunk beds are available in various combinations of three twin bunks, two twins and one full bed, two full size and one twin, two extra long twins and a full and then there are some that offer the option of adding a trundle bed to provide a fourth sleeping area.

The large majority of people looking to purchase triple bunk beds require beds for two children and the third bunk is used occasionally as sleeping options for the odd sleep-over. The double bunk beds with a trundle provide ample sleeping space for people with these requirements.

There are triple bunk beds that provide the option of separating the beds and using them as stand-alone units. This is a useful option if you have the required space to use the beds separately. It is not recommended that children under six years of age sleep on the top bunk. If you need the bottom bunk for a very young child you may want to look for children's bunk beds that provide the option of adding guard rails to the bottom bunk. This makes these bottom beds ideal when transitioning from a crib to a bed.
