Bed Rails & Guards

Bed rails and guards are a child safety essential for small children who sleep in a twin bed or regular size bed. When your baby grows out of his crib and is ready for a big-kid bed, save money and buy a bed he can grow into and continue to use for years to come. In the meantime, while he's growing, pick up a bed rail to guard him from accidentally rolling out of his big-boy bed during his sleep. Overstock.com has low prices on quality child safety gear like bed rails and guards to protect your baby from common preventable injuries.

Manufacturer installation instructions should be followed when installing your bed rail or guard. The general rule for bed rail installation is that the bed rail should be placed firmly against the mattress. You don't want any space between the bed rail and the mattress where your child could get stuck and possibly suffocate. You should not use a portable guard rail with bunk beds, water beds, youth beds or any other bed that doesn't use a box spring. A bed rail can be used as long as you judge necessary, but typically, use through age 5 is common.

You may want to get a portable bed rail even if your child does use a bunk bed, youth bed or other bed incompatible with a bed rail. A portable bed rail is good to have for times when your child spends the night away from home. For child safety supplies, kids' beds and much, much more, shop smart -- shop Overstock.com.
