Custom Loft Bed Loft Bed with Desk


All Solid Wood Construction. Our Ready-To-Assemble Beds include all the pre-cut and pre-drilled wood and hardware needed to construct your complete bed. We custom build each bed to your exact specifications so our beds can use any mattress thickness and fit to any ceiling height. Mattress not included. For college students in a dorm room our beds can use your existing dorm room bed spring frame and mattress to raise your bed off the floor. All beds have a Lifetime Warranty.

Shown above is our basic Loft Bed for dorm or adult use with a single safety rail on the front.

Shown below is our most popular loft bed, the All-In-One Sleep & Study Loft Bed with the Youth Safety Rails and the Short Desk. The Youth Safety Rails meet the Consumer Products Safety Commission Loft and Bunk Bed Guidelines

The beds come Unassembled & Unfinished, hand sanded and ready to be painted or stained to match any decor, or may be left unfinished. If you purchased the desktop, we do require finishing it to preserve the writing surface to prevent minor surface cracks. Assembly takes about two hours for the basic loft bed. Photos on our website of painted or stained beds were provided by our customers.

Weight Capacity of all of our beds is 1,000 lbs. of evenly distributed weight and bunk beds have 1,000 lbs. per level. With our heavy duty design, it makes our beds one of the sturdiest on the market and will hold up to the toughest youth, teen, college student or adult usage.

If you are comparing us to other websites, please note that most loft and bunk beds on the market today are designed for very young children with a typical weight capacity of 150 - 200 lbs., which includes the weight of the person and the mattress, they were just not designed for teen, college student or adult use. If you are the type of parent who likes to read to your child in bed, you are going to need more than the typical 150 lbs. of weight capacity. If the competitor's website doesn't clearly state the weight capacity then it probably was designed for very young children only and parents should not be on top making the bed.

With our beds having 1,000 lbs. of Weight Capacity the whole family can get into bed for bedtime stories.

Accessories

Ladders, Desks & Shelves may be Installed at Either End


For terminology purposes when describing the bed, we refer to the Front / Back / Left / Right / Head / Foot locations. The Front of the bed is the long side, most pictures on our website shows the view from the front of the bed. The Back is the long side opposite the Front. In many cases the Back of the Loft Bed is against a wall. The ends are referred to as Left / Right or Head / Foot ends. During assembly the customer decides at what end to place the accessory item.


Ladders: Vertical - Angled - Front - End


Angled Ladder Angled Ladder Angled Ladder Angled Ladder

The Ladder may be installed on either side on the front or eith side of either end.

We offer multiple ladders, Vertical and Angled. The Vertical Ladder is a straight up/down ladder. The Angled Ladder is slightly angled making it easier climbing up and down. During assembly the customer decides where to place the ladder. We provide you with a small drill bit to drill pilot holes to install the ladder.


Desks: Short - Long - L-Shaped - U-Shaped

Custom Loft Bed Custom Loft Bed Custom Loft Bed

The Short and L-Shaped Desks may be installed at either end.

We offer multiple desks: Short, Long, L-Shaped & U-Shaped. They are placed at 30" high and are 20" deep. Weight capacity 40 lbs. Due to FedEx package size limitations, the desks (except the Short Desk) come in multiple pieces and needs to be attached together during assembly. Please contact us if you need a custom size desk built.

The Short Desk goes the narrow width of the bed and may be installed at either end and either inside underneath the bed or on the outside end of the bed. We also offer a Desk Shelf which is attached to the short desk and goes the length of the bed across the back of the bed (see detail photo above).

The Long Desk goes the full length of the bed across the back. It comes in two pieces.

The L-Shaped Desk is a combination of the Long and Short Desk. It may be installed either as a Left or Right L. It comes in two pieces.

The U-Shaped Desk is a combination of the Long and (2) Short Desks. It provides the largest desktop area and is perfect for storing books, computers, toys, games and makes a very nice large arts & crafts table for active children. It comes in three pieces.




Bed Slats & Solid Platform Bunkie Board

 

Custom Loft Bed

All beds include Bed Slats (with a 3” gap between them) to support the mattress. We also have a Solid Platform Bunkie Board available that attaches to the top of the bed slats.

If you are using a traditional innerspring mattress you may place your mattress directly on top of the bed slats without a Box Spring, Solid Platform or Bunkie Board.

The Solid Platform Bunkie Board may be needed if you are using a foam mattress, thin mattress, older uncomfortable mattress, futon mattress, air mattress, a mattress that requires a solid base or you just want a solid platform underneath the mattress to get a firmer mattress feel. This may also be used if you don't want to see the bottom of the upper mattress when sitting or sleeping underneath or if you want a solid separator between the top and bottom mattresses.

It is also much easier making the bed with the Solid Platform as the bed sheets will not fall in-between the bed slats.

Check with your mattress manufacturer to see if they require you to have a box spring, bunkie board or a totally flat Solid Platform surface to keep the mattress warranty active.

The Solid Platforms are multiple pieces of 1/8" MDF Sheets that covers the entire mattress area.




View from the End of the Bed

This diagram shows the view looking at the end of the bed. The bed slats are recessed into the rails and the mattress rests on top of the rails and bed slats.



 

 

Bed Construction - Solid Spruce

Custom Loft Bed

Our tongue & groove construction techniques gives our beds extreme support and stability. End ladders built into both ends of the bed are notched, glued, screwed and bolted to the bed rails. The bed is assembled with screws and 3/8" carriage bolts, no nails or staples that will come loose over time. This makes for an extremely sturdy and heavy duty bed that will hold up to the toughest youth, teen, college or adult usage.

Our beds are made from the highest grade kiln-dried heat-treated solid Spruce grown in the Pacific Northwest. It is a special grade that is specifically selected for us. Since it grows in a cooler climate, it has fewer knots and the boards stay nice and straight better than other wood species. The bed frame is all natural wood that is unfinished and has no chemicals, no flame retardants and no formaldehyde. The legs and rails are 2x6's and the ladder rungs are 2x4's with rounded edges. Our wood is selected from sustainable forests and our suppliers are FSC certified.

The beds are Ready-To-Assemble, unfinished, hand sanded and ready to be painted or stained by the customer. Throughout the website you will see photos of painted and stained beds which were provided by our customers and are shown for illustration purposes only.

 

 

Standard & Flush Rung Caps

Custom Loft Bed Custom Loft Bed

In some cases, depending on your configuration, we will provide you with Rung Caps to fill in a notch in the leg.

Standard Rung Caps are the same thickness as a standard rung and extends out about 1/4" beyond the edge of the leg.

Flush Rung Caps are used when the notch being filled is used with a Solid Headboard. It is flush with the edge of the leg to allow the Solid Headboard to lay flat against the leg.

They are installed with glue and 2-1/2" screws.

 

 

Custom L-Shaped Legs for Open-Ends Beds

Custom Loft Bed Custom Loft Bed

We also make custom L-Shaped Legs for some of our loft and bunk beds. This allows the bed to be designed with no horizontal rungs between the legs at the ends of the bed. This gives you a more open feel and a more modern look.

 

 

Optional 10" Wide Legs

Custom Loft Bed

We offer 10" wide legs for any of our beds and the Workstation Bed. We make them from two 2x6's and glue a 1x4 between them. This design takes us much more time but gives you nice straight legs. Boards wider than 2x6's typically warp very quickly and most other manufacturers use either particle board or plywood for wider legs.

 

 

Shelving & Desks - Solid Wood

Custom Loft Bed

All Shelving, Desks and Safety Rails are all made from solid clear (knot-free) Spruce. For the wider shelves and desks individual boards are glued together to make a wider board. This process helps prevent warping and cupping which is typical with wide boards. The Spruce has a very nice grain and looks good with paint, stain, clear coat or left unfinished.

 

 

Assembled Within 30 Days

We require that the bed be assembled within 30 days of delivery. If left unassembled for a longer period of time, under some climate conditions unfinished wood may shrink or warp and some of the pieces may not fit properly. For example, our beds are manufactured in the Northeastern US, a cool and humid usage. If it is shipped to the Southwestern US, a hot and dry usage it will quickly dry out. If it is not assembled, this rapid drying could warp the wood. The warranty is void if the loft is not assembled within 30 days of arrival.
