What could scare your child more than the Boogieman? A fall from his bed! Child bed safety rails may not assure your little one that the Boogieman is a myth, but it can assure both of you that he won’t fall off his bed.

Before buying a particular one, it is imperative that you go over the product description to make sure that the child bed safety rails you intend to buy fit the bed that you are going to attach it to. The purpose for this is to avoid the incidence of your child being caught between the bed and the child bed safety rails.

The other type of child bed safety rails would require you to attach them at the sides of the bed. Some products from this type are admittedly unsafe for use because it offers the chance for children to become entrapped between the mattress and the child bed safety rails.

There are also child bed safety rails that guard both sides of the bed. This particular mechanism eliminates the chance of the child to roll between the bed and the child bed safety rails.

Why Bunk Beds Need Safety Rails

Executive Summary on Bed Rails By Debbie Gretsch

Using rails on your bunk bed is very important. First off, guard rails are required for children. Guard rails by law have to be less than 3.5 inches from the bed frame.

Guard rails also by law must be placed on both sides of the top bunk. You can also put bunk bed guard rails on the bottom bunk if your children aren’t very calm sleepers or are smaller. A nightlight is always a great idea for bunk beds.

Guard rails are so important to use. Use them on all your bunk beds. Don’t allow playing around the bunk bed either. As a precaution, check the guard rails every night.
