Standard size teenage beds

The child in the process of growing up becomes almost an independent person. He needs a separate room, and also needs a comfortable and cozy place to sleep. It is necessary to choose a bed according to the size of your offspring so that during the rest his body is correctly formed.

Children of any age spend in bed about 10 hours a day, so when choosing a place to sleep, you must take into account the size. Basically, the standard of a teenage bed is considered 180x90 cm. Since your child has already grown up and has an opinion, you should listen to his preferences.

Standard beds, which produce in the size of 170x80 cm, parents usually do not consider it necessary to buy, because the teenager is growing rapidly. Most often, products of 200x90 cm are purchased, such models are enough for a long time, and even an adult can sleep on them.

When choosing a place to sleep for a child who is older than 11 years, you should consider several requirements. The material from which the furniture is made must be environmentally friendly and free of harmful substances. We recommend also to pay attention to the fact that there were no sharp corners. Even at the age of 14, a child may be injured, getting out of bed at night in a drowsy state.

You can purchase a bed that is also suitable for an adult. Standard sizes in length are 190 cm. There is a wide choice of universal sofas on the market that will look good in the interior of a children's room.

When you buy this option, you can significantly save on space in the nursery, while increasing space for practice and games. Such models are absolutely safe for children.

To climb to the second floor, the child will need to climb on a specially attached ladder. Similar ladders can be in the form of drawers or usual, hinged. The beds themselves come in different sizes, it all depends on the shape, the number of shelves and built-in drawers. There are also models with built-in tables, desks, at which children can do homework.

The height of the upper bed is determined by the height above the child’s head, which will be at the bottom. Everyone should be comfortable. The standard height is up to 1.8 m. However, one should not forget about the size of the ceilings in the nursery so that this bed fits. Most often such beds are with a size of 200x90 cm.

There are also separate cases when bunk beds are made of one berth. On the first floor there is an opportunity to place a table, cabinets or a "Swedish" wall.

There are also sliding bed models. This option is ideal for parents who do not want to buy new furniture for children every 3 years. There are products in the shape of a circle, their design allows you to increase the length to 210 cm.The width does not change, and is 70 cm.

If you want the furniture to serve you for many years, you should take into account not only the size of the bed, but also choose the right mattress and type of base. Healthy sleep of your child depends on the base of the bed (mount at the frame, which is the support for the mattress).

There are several types of bases:

• solid;
• rack;
• orthopedic (made of lamellae).

A solid base is called such that it is made of solid wood or plywood.

The design of the rack base includes the presence of a frame and rails that form a grid. For manufacturing use plastic, wood or metal.

The most suitable type of base is orthopedic. The design is made of birch or beech wood. Special slats (lamellae) are made so that they evenly bend and at the same time completely follow the curve of the spine.

The choice of mattress for a teenage bed is no less important than other criteria. The correct position of the spine during sleep is a guarantee of health and emotional stability. Starting from the age of 11, the spine is almost formed, so it is important not to bend it.
