Loft & Bunk Beds for Kids Rooms with Low Ceilings

Are you furnishing a kid's room with low ceilings? Small spaces? Strange angles or corners? Who said you can't have a loft with a low ceiling? Check out our low ceiling bunk bed & loft selection. We have the perfect bed for you. Maxtrix offers low to mid lofts and bunk beds, twin to queen size kids beds, and toddler beds - all perfect for short ceilings. Start by measuring your space using our fit & measurement guide - check for depth, width and height - and then consult this handy guide for small or awkward spaces.
Stuck with Low Ceilings? Small Rooms?
If you are considering an elevated bed, take into account extra space on the top bed for your child to comfortably move around with enough head room. Our low loft beds for low ceilings, low bunk beds for low ceilings, and medium bunk beds are perfect options to maximize space even in rooms that may seem too small to accommodate elevated beds.
Low Lofts
Low lofts are 50.75” tall (about 4.2 feet), leaving plenty of headroom even if the room has 8’ ceilings.
Low Bunks & Mid Lofts
Mid lofts and low bunks are the same height (61.5”/5.1 feet), and can comfortably sleep whomever is in the top bunk; even if you have a low ceiling. We recommend calculating at least a 2 foot/24” headroom over and above the height of your bed – so if your home has 8 foot ceilings, these beds would more than fit!
Even medium high bunk beds and corner beds work really well with 8' ceilings!
Small Rooms with Strange Angles and Corners?
All of our beds are 80” wide (head to foot), and come in a choice of standard twin (42.5”) or full (57.5”) depth - we even have XL & Queen sizes now. If the size of the room is a concern, consider going with a straight ladder as the most space saving option to enter your bed.
With Maxtrix, You can also add either a ladder or a staircase to the side of any bed – effectively entering through the footboard. This option is very popular with people who have space constraints of want to maximize difficult to maneuver corners and angles. Here's a helpful guide to help you select the right entry - staircases or ladders. Or shop our beds with ladders on end collection.
Small Room with Limited Storage?
Is your son or daughter's room small and without a built-in closet? Or, is the closet super small and likely already full? Consider a loft bed with storage, which you can customize with your choice of shelves, dressers or play curtains. The best part of a Maxtrix bed is that you can easily reconfigure it later; ex: slide the dresser out as a standalone and add something different like a desk underneath the loft.
Tall Ceilings but Narrow Room?
If you have a room with tall ceilings but a narrow footprint, consider our high loft bed. They create lots of space by lifting the bed off the floor, allowing you to either leave the space open, or utilize it as you see fit; add storage, seating, a study area, or make space for a hobby (it’s a great spot for that drum-set!)
Or, go for a stacked bunk bed - even make it a triple - and sleep them all in one tall room!
Need to Sleep Many in a Small Kids Room?
Our triple and quad bunk beds can even fit in what may seem like the smallest spaces. With the ability to choose low or mid heights for our bunk beds, shorter ceilings aren't a problem. Depending on your room dimensions, you might try a low or mid height corner bunk or a longer quadruple bunk bed.
Room with Strange Angle?
We have lots of options for beds to sleep 1,2,3, or more in small rooms with strange angles! Contact us to determine the best fit for you.
Remember all Maxtrix ladders and staircases are fully reversible, so you can assemble them to suit your needs.
And, add bedside or under-bed storage for pure space-saving maximization.
