Top Bed Frame Idea Trends 2026

The 2024 update to BS EN 747 tightened three of those dimensions. This is what changed and why. A triple sleeper bunk bed — Dream Home Store. The guardrail height, ladder spacing, and mattress depth limit on this unit each correspond to a specific figure in BS EN 747-1:2024.
