Triple bunk bed clearance must be assessed from the complete external frame rather than the mattress size alone. Buyers should check the bed footprint, distance between sleeping tiers, mattress thickness, usable headroom, ceiling features, ladder access and circulation around the installed frame. For example, the Military Triple has confirmed external dimensions of 1980 × 960 × 2080 mm and a 1900 × 900 mm mattress frame, so its external footprint is 80 mm longer and 60 mm wider than the mattress platform.
| Planning measurement | What to record | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| External footprint. | Record the complete frame length and width, including posts, ends and fixed projections. | The mattress size is smaller than the installed bed and cannot be used as the room footprint. |
| Mattress platform. | Confirm the internal support-frame length and width for each sleeping tier. | This determines mattress fit but does not represent the bed’s external dimensions. |
| Inter-tier clearance. | Measure from the upper surface of the fitted mattress to the obstruction or structure above. | Usable clearance changes when mattress thickness changes. |
| Top-tier clearance. | Check the highest mattress surface against the finished ceiling and every overhead feature. | Beams, slopes, lights, detectors, sprinklers, ducts and pipes may reduce usable space. |
| Room access and circulation. | Allow for ladder use, walkways, door swings, storage, curtains, cleaning and installation access. | A frame can physically fit while leaving the room impractical or unsuitable to operate. |
Plan the room around the complete frame footprint and its fixed projections.
Calculate usable tier clearance from the top of the fitted mattress surface.
Measure ceilings, services, access routes and circulation at the actual bed position.
| Triple bunk model | Confirmed planning information | Required project check |
|---|---|---|
| Military Triple Bunk Bed. | External dimensions are 1980 × 960 × 2080 mm; mattress frame is 1900 × 900 mm; planned room height is approximately 2400–2500 mm. | Verify the exact side-rail level, fitted mattress thickness, overhead clearance and surrounding access. |
| Morpheus Triple Bunk Bed. | The main frame is approximately 2000 × 933 × 2066 mm with two drawing dimensions of approximately 743 mm between indicated frame levels. | Calculate usable clearance only after adding the selected mattress thickness and confirming the drawing reference points. |
| Repose Triple with Curtains. | The 2066 mm base frame plus 525 mm curtain structure gives a complete installed height of 2591 mm; planned room height is approximately 2900–3000 mm. | Check the highest curtain component, curtain operation, access and ceiling features. |
| Barracks and Community Triple models. | Barracks is approximately 2570 mm high and Community approximately 2800 mm high; planned room heights are around 3000 mm and 3000–3100 mm respectively. | Confirm the selected width, mattress depths, tier spacing and circulation from the current model drawing. |
| Hostel Triple with Curtains. | The complete frame is approximately 2820 mm high with a planned room height of approximately 3200 mm. | Verify the highest installed component, curtain movement, individual access, storage and power requirements. |
