Loftable Beds
RESIDENCE HALL AMENITIES
For better space utilization, some students like to loft their beds. For this reason, the beds in all of our residence halls and the Gardens 2 apartments are loftable. Therefore it is not necessary to build or rent a loft.
We have several different styles of loftable beds. Please refer to the information below regarding specific styles of beds in specific halls and for links to view pictures and download instructions and adjusting your loft.
All beds are initially set up as lofts with twin size beds with the exception of Davis-Gary. Beds in Davis-Gary are full-size loftable beds.

Jr. Loftable/Bunkable Beds
|
|
All beds
Aston,
Dunn,
Krueger, and
Mosher
are Junior Loftable/ Bunkable Beds which may be configured into a number of positions in order to provide flexibility as you arrange your room. If you choose to, you and your roommate may bunk your beds together, or you may create a "Junior"---"short loft" or a "tall loft" bed. If you choose to bunk or "tall loft" your beds, it is very important to always use the steel pins and the loft clips which are provided and to always use the metal stabilizer bar (locate it about 12" from the ground). Use of the stabilizer bar for "short loft" (lower height bed, not using the two additional headboards) is not necessary. Although not required, we highly recommend the use of the provided guard rails, to prevent possible falling out of the bed. Note: All bed parts must remain inside the room. You will be responsible for any missing parts (including the steel pins and loft clips).
