It is crucial to take the time to carefully examine the bed from every angle and ensure that there aren't any protruding boards or sharp corners or other components which could cause injuries. Wooden elements must be smooth sanded and metal parts must be free of burrs that could cut or cut clothing. The mattress foundation of the bottom and top bunks should also be firmly supported without gaps that might cause the mattress to slide or fall off the frame over time.

It is crucial to keep in mind that many injuries caused by loft beds can be traced to improper use and excessive play, but they can also be caused by unsafe design. The good news is that most of these accidents can be avoided through careful planning.

Children should be taught how to use the stairs or ladder correctly and should avoid sleeping on the top bunk until they are old enough that they can sleep there at their own pace without supervision. It is also recommended to put a chest of drawers or a wardrobe under the loft bed for storage to ensure that the items don't require a place on the floor, where they could pose an accident.
