Frequently asked questions about bed rails
Creating a safe and comfortable sleeping environment for the smallest members of the family is a priority for all parents, and in this regard a bed partner can play an important role. But what exactly is a bed edge and when is it time to put it to use? We will answer these and other questions in this guide, so read along and learn more about one of the most important products for the child's sleep.
Please also note that we have launched our own unique bed rail - and it is packed with good features and benefits.
How long will my child need a bed rail?
You can put the bed edge into use as soon as your child starts using a cot or bedside crib.
There is no fixed rule for how long you can use the bed edge. However, you may want to reconsider whether it still makes sense to use the edge of the bed if your child increasingly starts to play with it or climb on it. It is very typical that the edge of the bed is replaced with a bed hose when the child moves from a baby bed or cot to a larger bed.
What do you use a bed rail for?
A bed rail is really a smart thing to have in your child's bed. It acts as a soft protection that helps to ensure that your little nugget does not hit the bars or get his arms and legs between them. In other words, the edge of the bed helps to create a more comfortable and safe place to sleep for your child.
How much does a bed rail cost?
Bed rails are available in many different price ranges, and often there is a clear correlation between price and quality. The vast majority are filled with either foam or polyester (plastic).
Our bedspread, which offers a filling of organic kapok , costs DKK 799. and delivers great 'value for money'. You also get free shipping on purchases over DKK 600. and therefore do not have to pay for anything other than the product itself when you shop with us.
How to install a bed rail?
Installing our bed rail is super easy, but please take the time to get the bed rail to sit perfectly when you install it the first time. You will be happy about it, and once it is in place, you can enjoy the sight of your child's beautiful sleeping area for a long time to come. Start by removing the mattress from the child's bed. Tie the edge of the bed to the bars so that it is stretched out well and does not flap. Now put the mattress back in the bed so that the extra textile panel is folded down under the mattress. This ensures that small arms and legs cannot get between the bars. Now check that everything is in order, and voila – your little son or daughter can now sleep safely in a cozy and perfectly protected bed.
Tip : Our multinest can also be used in the cot
Which bed rail is suitable for my child's cot?
Our bed rail measures 360 cm in length and 27 cm in height. In addition, there is an extra panel of textile folded under the mattress for extra safety. These dimensions make the bed edge suitable for all common cots. The bed edge fits e.g. perfect for the classic cots in the dimensions 120 x 60 cm. If the edge of the bed is too long, it can overlap nicely. It is a good idea to check the measurements of your child's cot before ordering the bed frame, so that you are sure that there is a match.
How do you wash a bed rail?
The bed skirt from LALATOTO cannot be machine washed, but it is of course possible to remove stains and dirt when the accident is over. Just use mild soap and water for the purpose. Then the bed edge will soon be as good as new again.
