Instead, allow a clear space of at minimum 3.5 inches between the bottom edge of the guard rail and the top of the mattress foundation.

When positioning the bunk bed ensure that it is away from things like blinds, curtains windows, and ceiling fans which could block the view of a child, or cause her to fall off the side of the bunk. The bunk should not be close to anything that could hang from the rails, like cords or toys.
