Pros and Cons of Suspension Structures

Like any other furniture attributes, these hanging models have their own advantages and disadvantages.

Types of Hanging Beds

There are several options for fixing structures on the suspension:

• Wall. Due to the fact that this model hovering has a hidden mount, it turns out to create a certain levitation effect in the air, which looks really bewitching.
• Ceiling. The most commonly used type of mount, reminiscent of a garden swing. Anchor loops are mounted directly in the ceiling or in beams, if placement is expected in the attic.
• Combined. It is the most reliable and safe type of fixation, which, thanks to both ceiling and wall fixing, provides maximum structural strength.

When choosing fastenings, the static and dynamic load of the suspended product is taken into account, for example, for the installation of baby beds, the combined type of fixation will be the most suitable option, when one side of the bed frame is adjacent to the wall and the other is attached with holders to the ceiling.

Options for fixing the bed to the ceiling

The fastening of a sleeping place on suspensions, first of all, depends on the type of ceiling.

On chains

It is considered a fairly strong mount related to the floating bundle. Due to the slightly rough appearance of the chains, they are most often used only in certain style decisions.

On the ropes

Ropes or ropes are attached to the ceiling using powerful anchors. Also, sometimes for even greater strength, the nodes under the base are varnished.
