It should be inspected by an independent laboratory for testing. Make sure the bed has guard rails on all sides, and with gaps that are not more than 3.5 inches wide to avoid strangulation. Make sure the mattress foundation is not too deep and rigid. A mattress that is too deep could cause the guardrails' to collapse. Also avoid bunk beds that have ladders that extend beyond the frame.

Children should not climb or play on the side of a bunk bed and they shouldn't play with toys or other things close to or on the ladder. The best spot for bunk beds is in the corner of the room so that both beds are hugged by walls on both sides. It is important to keep bunk beds away from ceiling fans and hanging lights because they can be dangerous for those who bump their heads on them when lying in a bed upright. Stairs or ladders must be securely attached to the bunk bed and have anti-entrapment features to prevent accidents when climbing up and down. It's important to have a solid surface for kids to climb and fall down with a carpet or a stair runner. It is essential to teach children the rules of using bunk beds, for example, not jumping on or playing with them and only using them to sleep. Teach them to only use the ladder to climb up and down. Do not use it as a step stool. Children should be taught not to hang objects such as scarves or belts from bunk beds. Jump ropes and other decorations can cause strangulation.

Staircases are more secure than ladders as they are built directly into the bed frame. Ladders can be dangerous for young children, because they are easy to climb and could cause falls if they are not secured properly.
