Bunk bed plans and hardware kit to build an extra-tall triple bunk bed that holds three twin size mattresses for 9 foot plus ceilings. This 20+ page comprehensive plan explains how to select lumber, cut, sand, drill, apply finish and assemble a beautiful wooden bunk bed that is as solid and sturdy as those built by Bunk Beds Unlimited. It comes with a store-ready quick shopping list so that you can head right out and purchase the materials. This plan makes use of widely available of-the-shelf lumber and materials. You can build it even if you have little or no woodworking experience using a circular saw, an electric drill, a power sander and a few hand tools. It is a great first woodworking project or family project. This plan covers construction of the triple bunk bed alone, or with storage drawers or a trundle underneath. This triple bunk bed measures 84 inches tall, by 42 1/2" wide, by 81" long and sleeps three in a room with 9 foot or higher ceilings. This bunk holds three standard twin mattresses. The trundle measures 74” in length and holds a twin mattress that is 68” in length. The headroom space in each bunk is approximately as follows: upper bunk mattress to ceiling 28 - 29", middle bunk mattress to bunkie board on top bunk 20 - 21", lower bunk 18 - 19" (*note: use of very thick or pillow top mattresses is not recommended with any bunk beds). The finished bed will stand up to daily use for many years. Many of the beds we have manufactured have been in daily use in hotels, camps, shelters and other institutions for 15 years or more, supporting adult weight and still look great. The hardware kit has all hardware needed to complete the triple bunk bed, including all screws and black plated furniture lags that give the bed a professional appearance. Our hardware kits are higher quality and a better price than comparable hardware from hardware stores and home centers. (*Please note that lumber is not included in the hardware kit.*)

Excellent pattern for a triple bunkbed.
Really great design and pattern. WE also ordered the bronze screws that are also available to make the bed. Finished bed looks very good and the bronze screws look very nice. Used knotty pine rubbed with boiled linseed oil before construction. Grandkids love the bed. Great for a small room with a high 10 feet ceiling.

Space Saver Tripple Bunk Plans
This plan for a tripple bunk is exactly what I need for building my grand children's beds. The simplicity allows for standard off-the-shelf sized lumber with minimal milling (provided care is taken to sellect quality kiln dried lumber.) I own most hand tools but don't own a table saw. If I decide to make trundle drawers I will allow 3 inches of clearance for the movement of casters. The $15 price for the plans is reasonable but the hardware they offer is naturally additional. Before I begin to size my lumber I will confirm the exact dimensions of the matresses I'll use so that I can have a correct loose fit. I suggest when ordering plans that all the dimensions be confirmed for accuracy before cutting materials.
