Children’s single bed using IKEA's KALLAX 1x4 units
I purchased 3 KALLAX 1x4 units and built 2 of them, the 3rd unit I built up until putting the end piece of wood in place.
I then cut the 3rd unit down so that it was only 3 cubes.
I positioned the 2 complete units running lengthways and placed the 3rd cut down unit at the foot end of the bed base running width ways. I placed the edge that was cut at the wall end as although it seems structurally sound it isn't appealing on the eye.
I then placed a length of 4mm plywood on top of the units which is 30cm by 190cm, this prevents any possible sagging of the mattress since there is a void between the two units.
