i own a quadbunk tt and i want to put some sort of bumper on the bunks so the kids wont roll out. any ideas would be great. the duck tape idea isnt going to work to good.

 

It's a silly answer, how about a fabric covered cargo bar? Or you could cover it with pipe insulation.

 

Try a shower rod or closet clothes rod. Should be able to mount to walls at the desired height.

 

4 eye bolts in each bunk, with 2 bungee cord per bunk.

Actually you could make a stake pocket type ladder that you can put in place after they climb into bed.

Be careful with any of the rod or fence ideas. Just make sure the little buggers can't get their heads trapped.

i use spring loaded shower rods.they spin out to your desired length.we thought it was strange that the manufacters dont supply them and also a bunk ladder.my dealer said it was because of liability.

 

I've got a bunk room...but my girls are older...

There are some nights though when I come in from the campfire I could use a device to keep ME from falling out of bed!

But I digress...I remember when our kids first started sleeping out of the crip...you could buy these bed sides that slipped under the mattress...perhaps you could get a couple of those under the mattress and since the bunk mattresses are not very heavy...you may need to use pipe brackets (the 1/2 circle flat stock that goes around the pipe and screws to a wall?) to fasten them to the bed frame with a few small screws?

Something like this...Amazon.com: bed rail

Just a thought...

joe thats a good idea but i have a quad bunk set up.the t.v. is right in the middle so the access to the matress is not the full length of the matress.those restraints are too long for me.but it might work for a regular bunk set up.

 

thanks for the ideas guys! i like the shower rod idea because its should be fairly strong and is not permenant.

joe: we have that bed side that your talking about but its a pain to get set up i'm just kind of tired dealing with it. plus my two boys (age 2 and 4 ) are like little monkeys they would have that ruined in minutes.

also my bottom bunks fold up so i cant have anything blocking my storage door, but i think i will try the shower rod first.

spinella:i also thought it was strange not having something there to keep anyone from falling out of the beds and no ladders, i see the point about the liability.

well thanks for the ideas guys, and any more ideas would be great.
thanks, chris

 

Okay, I got it. Came to me in a vision - Velcro Pajamas!

Alternatively, you can buy bed rails at Wally World. We have one on the top bunk in out TT.

 

I need bed rails myself now for our bunks. My 5 year old fell out of the lower bunk Sat night and broke her collar bone. I am going to go to WallyWorld today and look for them.
