An all in one loft bed takes all of the storage problems out of a small space and makes organization a breeze. Writing desks, drawers, and shelves keep everything within reach and out of sight.
- Wood - Walnut, oak or white pine create a contemporary or rustic look. Solid wood is used in shelving, desks and storage areas for durability. Wood can be left natural or painted in today's popular wood tones. Different styles of guardrails are made to match the overall style of the unit.
- Metal - Steel frames that are industry approved hold beds firmly in place. Metal guardrails surround the upper bunk to prevent falls. Ladders are attached with commercial bolts. Metal is painted in various colors for matching a room's decor. White, silver, black, pink and blue are a few examples of the color schemes.
The choices of extras are many with an all in one loft bed. An open area underneath can be fitted with a desk and bookshelves. If storage is more of a concern, the entire bottom can hold drawers and closets. The sides are also utilized for study or storage. Open spaces can also be kept empty so that conversation areas or an extra bed can be tucked in nicely. Steps or ladders are an individual choice.
Attractive styles make an all in one loft bed both practical and decorative. Personal touches will create a place of relaxing retreat.
- Mission - Classic Mission style suits both boys and girls for a flair for design. Straight and even close set rails can be stained to create a dark wood or left natural with solid oak or walnut. Easily transitional, other styles, such as modern or country can be used with Mission styles.
- Contemporary/Modern - The metal look is a favorite of teens. With the sturdy steel frame and choices in colors, a bedroom looks modern and sophisticated. Solid wood delivers a contemporary style with straight lines and attractive hardware. Contemporary loft beds also work well in a room with transitional designs.
- Country/Rustic - For the outdoorsman, a rustic style is perfect. There is storage for heavy clothing, sports paraphernalia and vertical areas for hanging those great pictures. Sewn wood of distressed gray or pine with natural knotty holes keeps the outdoors spirit alive. Country styles with ornate rails and knobs add a warm and pleasing adventure to relaxation or sleep time.
Maintaining a loft bed takes little time. Dusting with polish or a treated cloth on a regular basis will keep the dust and dirt from building up. Mild detergent and water can remove almost any dirt without harming the finish. Make a routine check for bolts that may work loose and tighten accordingly. Check the owner's manual for additional information on your particular purchase.
