Wooden bed rails are a fixed bed rail. Once installed beneath the mattress the bed rail cannot fold down. These bed rails provide a cot-like appearance and provide the safety of a cot, yet allow your child to climb in and out of bed independently. Due to the uniquely designed base frame, all mesh bed guards and wooden bed guards are suitable and safe for slatted beds frames and solid bed frames" Will you be needing to take the bed rail to the grandparents? If YES you may want to consider a mesh bed rail as apose to a wooden bed rail as they are easier to transport. Mesh bed rails are more versatile and can rotate 90 degrees thanks to their unique fold down mechanism. This enables easy access so you can get your child in and out of bed safely. For the protection of young infants, bed rails and bed guards do not fully fold down, therefore any pressure from an infant will not result in the bed guard collapsing" If possible, put one side of your toddler's bed against the wall. This prevents the need to buy multiple bed guards, and offers a natural guard instead.

Why bed guards are important?

Although moving from a cot to a toddler bed is an exciting milestone, there is no reason to rush the transition unless your child is endangering themselves by trying to climb out of their cot. It's often better to keep them in their cot for as long as possible.

Is the bed rail compatible with your style of bed? Not all bed rails are compatible with sunken beds for example. Place the bed guard half-way down the bed so that it sits in the middle. This guarantees the safest place, as it prevents your toddler from rolling out whilst sleeping at either end of the bed. Bed guards and bed rails are not designed specifically for double beds although some bed guards are suitable. If your double bed has an extra deep mattress you may wish to consider investing in an extra tall and extra wide bed rail. This is considered the most suitable and safest bed guard for double beds. An extra tall bed rail will provide you with additional height and therefore greater safety for your child. Mesh bed rails are light weight and suitable for home or travel and some come complete with their own travel bag. Mesh bed rails are made from a metal, outer frame encased with a strong, breathable mesh. When choosing these toddler bed guards, we considered and compared protection, comfort, ease of assembly, convenience and portability.

How do you attach bed rails?

Although the recommended age for use of a bed rail is 18 months to 5 years, as a parent you may instinctively know when your child is ready to progress from a cot to a bed (with a bed rail fitted) and they may be slightly younger or older than the recommended age. You may also choose to remove your childs bed guard before the age of 5 years or beyond the age of 5 years.
