Bunk Beds
Bunk beds can be dangerous!
Make sure that the top bunk has guard rails on all sides of the bed.
- Ensure that the ladder is in good repair and securely attached to the bed.
- Check to make sure that the frame of the bed is solid.
- Check the welds on metal bunk beds where the bed frame is fixed to the structure. Metal bunk beds with weld cracks should not be sold.
- Health Canada recommends that bunk beds meet the requirements of American standards (ASTM F-1427-96, and 16 CFR, Parts 1213, 1500 and 1513).
