How to Create the Perfect Kids Storage Bed Configuration
Are you looking at our kids' storage bed options and wondering how to select the best setup for your child's room? There are many different ways to configure your Maxtrix kids bed with storage, so we want to make that process a little easier for your family.
Follow these steps, and build the perfect loft bed with storage for your child while saving valuable bedroom floor space!
Create a Maxtrix Kids Storage Bed in Four Simple Steps
1. Choose Your Base Bed.
We have three loft bed heights - low, mid, or high. Consider your child's age and needs to find the best fit.
The low loft is great for rooms with low ceilings or households with young children. The mid loft is probably our most popular storage bed as it provides a bit more space for case goods underneath. Finally, the high loft is great for tweens, teens, or college students who can really sleep high and maximize storage space underneath. 
2. Select Your Style.
Next, consider your finish color, bed end style, and type of entrance.
Let's start with color. We offer all of our beds in three finishes - natural, chestnut, and white. Pick the one that best fits the kiddos' unique style and decor. Or, for a more modern look, choose a two-tone finish with white and natural wood.
Then, consider your entrance preference. We provide staircases, angled ladders, and straight ladders for our loft beds. Staircases are great for younger kids, while ladders save valuable floor space.
Quick tip: staircase loft beds give you even more storage! Each step features a built-in drawer, perfect for storing pajamas, bedding, and any other bedroom essentials.

Once you know the bed height, finish color, bed end style, and entrance type, you pretty much have your base bed! Now, let's talk case goods.
3. Determine the Amount of Storage Needed.
Do you have a school-aged child? Whether he or she is in K-12 or college, you can create lots of study space with loft bed with desk. Think low lofts for elementary and middle and mid or high loft for high school and college.
Do you have an avid reader or a young one who enjoys story time? Try a bookcase with open shelves for all the books! Our library lofts offer pre-packaged setups with the ultimate amount of bookcases. Try low, mid, or high heights!
Need lots of room for bedroom items or everyday clothes? Dresser drawers are available in many arrangements like 3-drawer (low loft), 4-drawer (mid loft) or 5-drawer (high loft) depending on the bed height. 
The Maxtrix® System is designed so all of our case goods fit exactly underneath the beds for an easy, fully customizable setup. Just choose the type of storage your child needs, and watch clutter disappear!
Tip: All of our storage units can be pulled out from underneath the bed, and you can add a crown and base to create free-standing units out of them!
4. Consider Accessories.
This is the fun part! Any storage bed can also become a play bed... just add a slide, top tent, or under-bed curtains. This is a popular favorite for our low loft configuration for younger children. Parents love our functionality, and kids love the fun!
If you're not in the market for a play bed, you can also search through our bedside storage. This is especially ideal for the high loft, so your child can set books, drinks, snacks, and more right beside them without climbing down.
We have large bedside trays, magazine racks, beverage holders, and our unique Maxpack available.
Build Your Kids Storage Bed!
Now, it's time to build your storage loft bed configuration. Use our filtering options with your selections to find a great set of options to choose from or create your own custom look!
And, remember, all of our lofts are built with the same core Maxtrix bed, so they can easily be converted into another combination by simply taking elements away and adding new Maxtrix components.
As your child gets older, you can easily change the configuration! That's the beauty of the Maxtrix System! Need help customizing your setup? Our complementary Design Team is always here to help.
