10 Questions to Ask Before Buying Dormitory Bunk Beds | Zehao Furniture

Buying bunk beds for a school, staff accommodation or hostel is a capital decision with safety implications. Use these ten questions to pressure-test any supplier's quote.

Questions 1-4: safety and certification

1) Which standard (EN 747/EN 1725) do you certify to? 2) What is the per-berth dynamic load? 3) Are guardrails and ladder certified with the frame? 4) Do you hold CE and ISO 9001? Our dormitory bunk beds answer all four on paper.

Questions 5-7: commercial terms

5) What is the MOQ? 6) What is realistic lead time at my quantity? 7) What are the spare-part and warranty terms? Share your plan via our contact page to get firm numbers.

Questions 8-10: logistics and fit

8) How many sets fit a 40HQ? 9) Is the bed compatible with standard dorm mattresses? 10) Can you customize RAL colour and ladder side? Beds with stairs and storage solve 8-10 out of the box.

Frequently Asked Questions

What MOQ should I expect?

Most factories start at 50 sets per configuration; larger projects get better pricing and priority slots.

How do I compare two quotes fairly?

Normalize on certified load rating, included certifications, per-container quantity and warranty — never price per set alone.

Should I buy assembled or flat-pack?

Flat-pack (KD) saves 50-70%% on shipping and is standard for export; assembled costs more to freight but installs faster.
