Some beds have a guard rail integrated into the frame. This can provide an extra layer of protection for children. This is particularly beneficial in small bedrooms, where bunk beds can be tricky to navigate without risking falling over furniture or other objects in the room.

If the bed is placed too close to the wall, it could lead to entrapment and serious injury. A mid-sleeper or cabin bed should be at minimum 3.5" away from the wall to minimize the risk.
Another vital safety point is to keep everything from the railings of the guard on the top bunk. If a child is caught in scarves, belts or similar items, they could strangle them.
