The logistics of operating a multi-bed facility can be complex, to say the least. There are several concerns to contend with when it comes to housing a rotating guest list.
Those who manage homeless, emergency, or other types of shelters not only have to focus on health and safety issues, but also the prospect of fitting as many people as possible into limited square footage.
This is where shelter bunk beds can make a huge difference.
When you run out of floor space, utilizing overhead space to increase capacity can double or even triple the number of guests you’re able to accommodate and make it a lot easier to keep families together.
With strong, durable, and safe bunk beds from ESS Universal, your shelter can increase accommodations for guests and enjoy a long list of additional benefits in the process.
Added Accommodations
The main benefit of bunk beds for shelter facilities is obviously the added sleeping accommodations they provide.
There are several options to explore when choosing commercial bunk beds from ESS Universal, including single over single bunks to accommodate two adults, single over double bunks to accommodate three adults or a family with children, and even triple bunk beds (with three levels of single bunks).
Depending on the square footage and vertical space available, you have all kinds of options to increase the number and variety of sleeping arrangements available, allowing you greater opportunity to cater to groups of guests at your facility.
When offering shelter to individuals, families, or groups, having different bedding configurations available increases both convenience and efficiency.
