Im looking for a guardrail or similar for a bunkbed ladder, to prevent
a 3 year old from climbing up the ladder to the top bed and falling
off the edge.
Bunkbed does not have a detechable ladder.
So need something to prevent the kid from climbing up the ladder to the top bed.
Searched but cant find anything.
Thanks. |

Would you like the guard at the top of the ladder, at the bottom of
the ladder or in the middle.
Do you have a picture of the bed you could post with the ladder
measurements (Width, Height, space between rungs)
Lastly, would you consider a custom one if there is not one out there?
Please let me know so I and my fellow researchers can find out more
information and attempt to help you with this.

Hello Gerth,
Please take a look at the following image.
http://68.15.21.151/uploads/researchers/ladder_enclosure.jpg
Description:
The enclosure is made from vinyl and is designed to fit conventional
A-frame ladders. It is a three-sided enclosure with a spring-loaded,
self-closing, self-latching, lockable gate that meets all of the code
requirements for ladder enclosures. Attractive lattice work makes this
enclosure a welcome addition to any A-frame ladder. Pre-assembled, it
easily installs in just five minutes.
Would something like this meet your needs?
Thanks,

Here is a ladder cover
Gerth,
Here's another one.

6? high panel guards the first five rungs to help prevent unauthorized access.
Heavy-duty butt hinges allow the cover to be easily swung to the side
for ladder access.
Can be customized to meet your needs.
Thanks,

Gerth,
I also found a patent for a ladder guard.
It includes details and measurements. Perhaps you could get one custom made.
Here is a brief description.
?The invention is a ladder guard which prevents unauthorized access to
a ladder. Preventing injury to children is a primary goal of the
invention. The ladder guard has a top and a bottom hook extending from
two metal sheets. The hooks can be adjusted to go between two to four
ladder rungs, thus preventing use of the covered rungs. The top and
bottom hooks are adjustable to fit any size rungs. The metal sheets
may be locked to prevent removal. A tool tray is also mountable when
the ladder is in use. The invention works with all known ladders. It
is, therefore, a removable universal fitting ladder guard.?
Would a link to the full text and images of this patent meet your needs?
Thanks,
Bobbie7
