What is the advantage of a fold down mechanism on a bed guard?

W) x 40cm(H) (Typically used on cot bed mattresses with measurements of approximately 70cm x 140cm) I HAVE A LIGHT WEIGHT, THIN MATTRESS:if you have a slim, light weight mattress which is often the case with cot beds and toddler beds, make sure that the mattress is substantial enough to hold a bed rail in place. Consider a smaller bed rail such as a Standard Mesh Bed Guard. Safetots also recommend against using bedguards on the lower bunk bed level. Many children find bunk beds the indoor equivalent of a climbing frame and a serious accident may occur should a child use the rail as a foothold or spring board when climbing on and off the top bunk. Play of this nature may also compromise the stability of the fixings or fatigue the components making it unsafe for its purpose. As tempting as it may be to tie teddies and similar to the bedrail to create a sleepy environment, these pose strangulation and entrapment dangers, and nothing should ever be attached to the bedguard that is not part of the fittings. Safetots wooden bed rails are a standard height of 38cm from the base to the top, and are considered suitable for most beds including cots, single beds, and double beds. text": "Bed guards can be used on double beds, although some bed guards are more compatible and suitable than others. When choosing a bed guard or rail for your double bed, firstly measure the depth of your mattress. If your mattress is extra deep, then an extra tall bed guard will be more suitable. These bed rails will achieve a greater height above a deep mattress. Secondly, an extra wide bed rail will cover a greater length of the bed and will work well on double and king size beds.
