With the Maxtrix Children's Furniture System, You Can Put Safety First

Posted on 03/07/2022

When it comes to purchasing things for your children's everyday use, safety is a crucial factor to take into consideration. When it comes to significant purchases and items that your child will use alone during unsupervised hours, such as after going to bed, the importance of this is magnified.

Purchasing well-designed furniture for your child's room is an excellent option in addition to "baby proofing" the room by covering electrical outlets and anchoring furniture to avoid tipping. The Maxtrix children's furniture system has been meticulously developed with the child's well-being in mind.

Toddler Safety Is Very Important

While a typical toddler or youth-sized bed may appear to be the most practical solution for keeping your toddler safe, Maxtrix offers a fantastic Basic Bed that meets the safety needs of your toddler. This Basic Bed simultaneously serves as the foundation for your Maxtrix collection as you will be able to build on it in order to meet your child's needs as he grows up.

When you add either Guard Rails or Back and Front Safety Rails to our Basic Bed, you instantly transform it into a toddler-safe sleeping option. Consider adding on one of our Top Tents to add a little extra fun to your child's bedroom.

As your child develops, you can convert this Basic Bed into a Low Loft, which provides additional play area, storage, or a combination of the two. After that, you can think about adding a curtain, a top tent, a tower, or other decorations. Unlike many other beds, the MaxTrix Leg Extensions have a durable, rock-solid Rock-Lock that allows your child to relax and play in complete safety while in bed.

Bunk Bed Safety Is a Concern

You might, instead of constructing a Loft Bed, convert your Basic Bed into a Bunk Bed to accommodate additional children or to accommodate guests. 

Maxtrix Bunk Beds are available in a variety of forms and sizes, including low bunks, L-shaped bunks, twin-over-full bunks, triple bunks, and even quad bunks with a staircase. 

Entry points are designed to be as safe as possible. Apart from straight ladders, we also provide angle ladders with handrails and storage staircase choices in our product line. In addition, we have Slide accessories that allow your child to begin the day exiting their bunk in a safe and enjoyable manner.

Precautions in General

Whether you choose a Basic Bed, a Loft Bed, or a Bunk Bed, the Maxtrix System provides a well-supported, slatted bed frame that provides a safe and healthy environment in which your child can sleep and play. To ensure quality, we use solid natural wood for our bed slats rather than cheaply manufactured plywood or press board. 

Unlike traditional children's furniture, which is built to merely support a child's resting weight, our beds are meant to support your child as he or she develops into a teenager or young adult. Each of the fourteen slats measures 3.5 inches in width. These barriers, which have been tested to withstand loads of up to 800 pounds, will not be easily breached by a child who engages in regular physical activity.

While some people believe that solid bunky boards are preferable over slats, having a firm foundation might result in moisture being trapped beneath the mattress, harming the health and longevity of the mattress. We have instead chosen sturdy wooden slats to support the mattress in order to ensure the mattress properly breathes.

When it comes to children's bedroom furniture, we feel that "safety is our number one priority!"
