What kind of wood is used for a FLEXA bed?
All FLEXA wood components are made from pine trees from North European forests located north of the 60th parallel. The trees grow slowly because of the cold climate. This gives the wood a strong fiber structure and greater mass than other types of pine. FLEXA recently purchased a majority stake in ZAO Zapkarelles, a Russian company with licenses covering over 2 million acres of forests in order to better control this precious resource. FLEXA practices sustainable forestry, as approved by the Forest Stewardship Council, a global accreditation body meant to help preserve the earth's forests. The company requires that all suppliers have the same goals and policies toward protecting the forests.
What is the difference between a FLEXA bed and a FLEXA Inspiration Bed?
The FLEXA bed system has rounded corners and is made from solid wood. The FLEXA Inspiration Bed has round metal legs and the rest of the bed is solid wood as well. The Inspiration system has a special plastic glass front, which allows you to add posters, personal pictures and drawings, change the look whenever you like.
Both bed systems are supplied in clear and white-wash finish and you can add supplementary beds, extra legs, ladders, rails and accessories.
Is it possible to make a Low Loft into a High Loft Bed?
Yes. In order to convert a Low Loft into a High Loft bed you need to order the following products: Extension legs (twin size) 71561 (full size) 71571, High Loft ladder (fits both twin and full size) 71490 – straight, 714914 – angled ladder with handrail.
I have a day bed and wish to make a Low loft bed, can this be done?
Yes. If you want to convert a day bed into a Low loft bed you need to order the following: Extension ladder and legs (fits both twin and full size) 71401 – straight ladder, 714114 - angled ladder with handrail.
Does a FLEXA bed fit a standard American sized mattress?
Yes. All FLEXA beds fit standard American sized mattresses, both twin and full size.
What is a suitable age for a Loft bed for my child?
We recommend 6 years of age for any of our loft beds, but this is obviously a personal preference.
Why is there a handle attached to an angled ladder – can I use the angled ladder without handle?
For your child’s safety it is recommend that you use a handle with the angled ladder.
What is more appropriate for a bunk bed: a straight or an angled ladder?
This is a personal preference. An angled ladder needs more space than a straight ladder. And for some kids it is easier to climb into the bed with an angled ladder.
Will I be able to place the ladder on both left and the right side of the bed?
Yes, the flexible system allows you to choose what is most appropriate for you.
Do I need to place a safety rail at the backside of my bed?
It is highly recommended to use a full-length safety rail on the backside of your FLEXA bed to help prevent your children from falling out.
How much space do I need to place a FLEXA bed?
The FLEXA bed has the following dimensions: 43 ¼” (width) x 26 ¼” (height) x 78 ½” (length). All measurements are listed under each product throughout our website in the description section.
How much space do I need to add a slide?
Adding a slide to your FLEXA Low Loft Bed will extend the width an additional 57 ¾”. A slide on a platform needs 41” in the width.
All measurements are listed under each product throughout our website in the description section.
Can I place spare parts of the FLEXA Inspiration bed program into a regular FLEXA bed?
No. Since the standard FLEXA bed system has square legs and the FLEXA Inspiration system has round legs, it is not possible to combine the 2 systems.
How much weight does a FLEXA bed carry?
All FLEXA beds are tested for International and American safety standards. U.S. requirements indicate that the bed has to withhold a constant pressure for 5 minutes of 400 lbs.
How can I preserve the FLEXA furniture?
We suggest that you clean your furniture with a wet cloth. Use a sponge with soap to remove obstinate dirt. Avoid solvents and dilutions. Screws, bolts and tension straps should be re-tightened from time to time.
In which colors are FLEXA beds available?
All FLEXA wood products are available in both clear (natural) and white-wash finishes.
Can I buy a FLEXA bed in natural wood without lacquer, as I want to paint the bed by myself?
No. All FLEXA bed components are treated with a UV lacquer that is very durable and makes the furniture elegant, robust and timeless.
Where is FLEXA furniture manufactured?
At FLEXA, we take care of the entire value chain ourselves. From picking the trees at our own forest in Russia, to preparing the raw timber at our facilities in Estonia and Denmark. In Estonia we have our own sawmills for cutting, drying, planning and rounding of the wood components. From Estonia we then send the semi-completed components to our 3 Lack & Pack units in Hornsyld, Denmark (which supplies Europe), Suffolk, Virginia (which supplies the United States), and Suzhou, China (which supplies Asia). Here, they are lacquered and packed as finished products, which you can then purchase from your local FLEXA Shop or online through shopflexa.com
Does a FLEXA bed fit a standard American sized mattress?
Yes. All FLEXA beds fit standard American sized mattresses, both twin and full size.
Keep in mind that FLEXA mattresses are especially designed to the need of the child, so if you want to be sure you choose the right product for your child – choose a FLEXA mattress.
Why should I buy one of FLEXA’s mattresses?
We always recommend one of FLEXA’S mattresses. They are uniquely designed and tested for children’s weight and body shape. Children require a mattress that can adjust to their height and weight as they grow.
How does the FLEXA slat system work?
All FLEXA mattresses are specially designed to use with our Integrated (European) Slat System - a unique continuous and flexible support which works better for your child than any box spring or conventional bed. Each individual slat is made from 6 layers of strong birch veneer, a total of 15 slats interact with the mattress to provide your child with the perfect sleep. The FLEXA slat system softens pressure points and contours with your child’s back and brings it into the correct sleep position. To ensure the slat system works properly, please weave safety strap between the slats and pull it as tight as possible.
