Heavy Duty Pine Bunk Beds and Bed Frames in Stock, Made in the UK
Let’s face it—bunk beds are brilliant. They save space, spark joy (and a few sibling squabbles), and make sleepovers feel like an adventure. But here’s the not-so-fun part: not all bunk beds are created equal. When you’re buying a pine bunk bed, especially for children, safety should be your top priority. At Strictly Beds and Bunks, we believe a good night’s sleep should come with peace of mind. So before you let the kids pick their favourite duvet cover, let’s talk safety.
If you take away one thing from this blog, make it this: always check that your bunk bed complies with British Standard BS EN 747:2015A.
This safety regulation covers everything from the strength of the frame to the height of the guard rails. It’s not just bureaucratic red tape—it’s there to make sure your child doesn’t roll out of bed or get stuck in awkward gaps. All of our pine bunk beds fully comply with this standard because your family’s safety is non-negotiable.
According to the experts—and common sense—the top bunk is a no-go for kids under six. Why? Little ones are still developing coordination and balance, and a tumble from the top can mean more than just a bump on the head.
Even if your child is older, it’s wise to install a night light or clip-on lamp near the ladder for those midnight toilet trips. No one wants a stealthy ninja descent to end in a crash.
Speaking of mattresses, don’t be tempted by that chunky deluxe model if it doesn’t fit the frame properly. A mattress that’s too thick can make the guard rails ineffective. Ours are specially designed to work with thicker mattresses while keeping everything within the safety envelope.
Even the safest bed won’t help if it’s poorly assembled. Follow the instructions carefully, check the parts, and don’t skip the wall brackets. If you need help, we’ve got videos and a customer support team ready to jump in: Assembly Help
Bunk beds are naturally top-heavy, especially on wooden floors. That’s why we provide brackets to secure your bed to the wall or skirting board. Think of it like anchoring a tall bookcase—it's all about stability. A wobbly bunk bed isn’t just annoying, it’s potentially dangerous
Investing in a pine bunk bed should be exciting, not nerve-racking. With the right construction, smart features, and a few house rules, a bunk bed can be both a fun and safe addition to your child’s room.
