Triple Bunk Beds

Triple & Trio Bunk Bed FAQs

A bunk bed is special enough; the triple or trio variety is an even greater adventure, giving children the awe of nestling down in a structure that’s incapable of a boring bedtime. A triple bunk bed is an ideal purchase for families bursting joyously at the seams and children who have more friends than they can count.

See our handy guide to triple beds for plenty of advice on implementing these sleeper beds into your interior. However, there are a couple of factors to think about if you’re shopping for one of these sleepers, so take stock of our FAQs if you’re unsure about what to do with a bed so brilliant!

Are triple bunk beds very high?

This is the most common concern; it’s understandable that you don’t want any kiddie on top to have their nose squished to the ceiling. However, manufacturers generally don’t want to limit their products to bedrooms with grand proportions, which is why most designers keep their bottom bunks low to the ground to maximise utility. Triple bunks sometimes feature a double mattress and base on the bottom bunk to reduce the overall height of the bed.

Will it take up the whole wall?

Not necessarily. Although most of our triple bunks are in a typical tower build, some, like our L shaped triple bunk beds, leave room for customisation with quirky dimensions for rooms of every shape and size.

What if I don’t always need three beds?

That’s fine – it’s an issue that many designers recognise, so we have plenty of bunk beds with an additional pull-out bed and mattress (called a trundle bed) tucked underneath. The beauty of a Triple Bed (or a trundle for that matter) is that sleepovers can grow in size pretty quickly (as do families!), so you'll be able to accommodate all types of surprises.
