Frequently Asked Questions about Bunk bed safety check in Tiverton
How often should bunk beds be checked?
Every few months at minimum, or whenever you notice wobbling. Children's constant climbing, bouncing, and general use works bolts loose faster than you'd think.
What age is safe for the top bunk?
Generally 6 years and over for the top bunk. Younger children can roll out or not have the coordination to use the ladder safely at night.
What if you find something seriously wrong?
We'll tell you immediately and advise on repair options. If it's unsafe, we'll recommend not using the top bunk until it's fixed. Safety comes first.
We bought a second-hand bunk bed - should we get it checked?
Definitely. You don't know its history, how it was assembled, or what stress it's been under. A safety check before first use is sensible.
