Metal bunk beds

Large families often face the problem of lack of space for furniture in children's rooms, so the choice of parents in such cases becomes a two-story bed. There are similar options for adults. The use of metal for the manufacture of such beds not only allows you to make them more reliable, but also opens up a wide scope for designer fantasies.

Special features

Wrought iron bunk beds differ in a number of advantages over analogs from other materials.

  • The furniture has reliability and durability, which not only provide a much longer period of expected operation, but also make it possible not to worry because of the possibility of the collapse of the upper tier under the weight of a person sleeping on it.
  • The presence of environmentally friendly materials used favorably distinguishes metal products from furniture, which used plastic and other artificial materials.
  • The beds have a stylish look, which, depending on the model chosen, can both remind you of the elegant times of knights and castles, and perfectly fit into the futuristic design.
  • The furniture is resistant to external influences, because breaking such a bed at arbitrarily active games is much more difficult than a wooden one. In addition, metal furniture does not absorb moisture and other undesirable substances.

There are such beds and some disadvantages:

  • in contrast to tactilely warm wooden models, the double-deck wrought-iron beds are rather cold when touched, which somewhat reduces their comfort;
  • some models of metal beds may creak strongly over time;
  • due to the high labor intensity of manufacturing, the price of wrought iron beds is much higher.

In addition, any bunk furniture is characterized by such danger as the probability of a sleeping person falling from the second tier, so when choosing, you should pay attention to the presence of high sides.

Species

The most common type of forged bunk beds is the so-called bed-attic format,when the second berth is vertically above the first one and completely repeats it in size, design and shape. For access to the second bed, a staircase is usually used, which is most often placed vertically in the middle of the bed or closer to one of its edges. However, there are also models with an inclined ladder, and also without it. Another nuance that must be considered when choosing is the presence of boxes.

Metal models with drawers are less common than without them, but their presence allows you to save even more space on the furniture, as it allows you to abandon the bedside tables or even cabinets for things or toys.

Models

The largest suppliers of forged double-decker beds to the Russian market are Sweden (represented by Ikea), as well as Malaysia. There are Russian manufacturers of such furniture.

The most popular models manufactured by Ikea are:

  • "Svart" - a model designer for children and adolescents, which can supply both in two-and three-tier form.
  • "Tuffing" - comfortable, practical and safe model for adults, equipped with wide sides and a sloping staircase.Often found in hostels and hostels.

Among Malaysian products, the most popular are the following models:

  • Domini miranda - an elegant model with openwork headboards, massive racks and minimalist side stairs;
  • DD 3005 - simple and convenient option with a minimalist design;
  • Lara - A combination of a double bottom and a single upper bed;
  • Minima 300D06 - The easiest of children's options with high sides.

Russian art forging studios often offer custom-made bunk metal beds, which allows you to embody any ideas and make a bed that is ideal for any room.

However, some of them, for example, such as Metal-Resource and Metaldekor, operate in the format of an online store and deliver their products to all regions.

Reviews

In most cases, owners of wrought iron lofts mark their reliability and aesthetic qualities in their reviews. Among the complaints about the goods Ikea most often called the emergence of the squeak. Some parents also mention cases of falling children from beds that are not equipped with bumpers.
