BUILD A LOFT BED WITH NO SUPPORT BEAMS!!
HI EVERYONE! WELCOME BACK! THIS VIDEO CONTAINS HOW I BUILT A LOFT BED WITH NO SUPPORT BEAMS STEP BY STEP! EVERYONE LOVES A GOOD OL' LOFT BED FOR THEIR KIDS OR A LOFT BED FOR THEIR OWN! THIS PLAN WILL WORK FOR ANY SIZE LOFT BED BUT I MADE IT FOR A TWIN BED BASED ON THE SIZE OF THE PLAYHOUSE. I ALSO ADDED SOME EXTRA FEATURES INCLUDING LAMINATE FLOORING ON TOP, A RAIL AND INSTALLATION OF A LADDER! THANKS FOR CHECKING OUT THIS LOFT BED VIDEO! TAKE CARE! ALEX Q! Email wcjt31@gmail.com
Seriously who could unlike this video. Dude going out of his way for his kids and providing in my opinion the best loft build video on TH-cam. Great video
Fantastic idea. We've been looking to give the kids more rm in their bedrms. Our daughter plays piano and likes to practice on the keyboard. Underneath is the perfect place. Our son plays drums and needs space for his electronic drums. And we (parents) enjoy the peacefulness and space in our livnrm. I bow to thee!!
Alex I completely enjoyed your detail explanations. For the novice like myself it is very necessary to have a step by step guide. Thid is one of the best how to videos on TH-cam
Great job here sir uve given me alot of ideals as Im making lofts for my 2 lil girls and my boys room...also u seem like a great dad Im a single dad so I love seeing a parent take time to do projects like this for their kids theyre only small for a lil time.....WELL DONE DAD!!!

Thank you so much, I'm planning on building a loft bed soon and your video is the most comprehensive video on building I have ever seen.
This guy is amazing!! Never really see step by step instructions broke down like this GREAT JOB
This video was perfect! To the point, informative, pleasant to watch, very well done. Thank you so much!!! Great work!!
Bravo on the simplicity and explaining the tools and screws. Juuuuust a touch over-built though, you could prob park a car up there lol. That loft is lasting longer than the shed. OH get some torx or squarehead screws and give them a try. You'll never drive another phillips ever.
Thanks you brother, this is exactly what I wanted to do in my my house, one for loft bed and another for a loft area above my entry door. Thank you, I learned a lot.
hi, buck here, i loved your project, however i want to add a suggestion. on your ladder to the upper bunk deck, it needs to be at right angles to the dismount/mount to the upper deck, the kids need to approach the ladder from one side or another so that they are not extending facefirst or backwards to get onto the ladder but from the side so tthat they can see where they are going to land or step onto, if you look at industrial safety ladders you will see that the dismount is to either side than over the top of the ladder, example, if you are dismounting from your roof of your house onto a ladder you need to be able to see where you are placing your feet to going rather than backing blind to a potential fall point, its just the way your brain works, you need a place to one side or the other to place your butt, to be stable or to step from, i spent 60 years as an industrial millwright/machinist and have been up many hundreds of yards of safety ladders and i always felt safer stepping sideways onto a landing, good luck, i added your build onto my bookmarks, thanks buck...
The light is so close to kids and pillows (pillow fights) and horseplay it would worry me. Maybe a different type light or a case type item over that light. You did a fine job making the loft.
wow it's so Amazing.. the video is 4 years ago but now reccomended for me..
Beautiful job ! I like that you give detailed step by step and at good pace. Other videos are so fast I can’t keep up .
You are an excellent carpenter, thank you for sharing your talent to build and teach with us.
This is great, I'm building a platform bed in my small apartment to make space (The living room and bedroom are in the same area) this helped me figure a few things out.
Always take measurements on the exact installation position. Take into consideration that there are no perfectly flat walls or ceilings and no perfect square angles between them.
First off, great video, very detailed that any ordinary person can learn from watching. Keep up the good work and create more videos. Thanks for sharing.
Facts
a joy to watch and has given me an idea for my grandson's bed for when visiting. A Merry Christmas to you all
I love how specific you are and basing on everything you put on there, this is definitely professional work. Kudos
I like what you said at the end. Good video, great project, fabulous Dad.
This is so cool, really well done, you're children have the best dad 😊
Oops your, daft autocorrect haha!😂
Hey Sheila Boughey! Thank you very much!! That is awesome that you say That! Very much appreciated! Those kids are my life and they really enjoyed all the hard work put into it! Thanks again for the awesome comment!!
You can also use structural screws. They are available in different sizes, lengths, and colors and either hex or torx head. They don't require pre-drilling but I would recommend two screws per stud.
Love it. But I would round and sand the top of the ladder. Maybe a hand rail against the wall.
Great idea!
A minor point and 7 years late, but relocate the light or change it as it's a pending accident
Looks awesome bro, just a thought, get yourself a bevel, cheap ones are about $7, that way you could of used it to make the angle top and bottom without needing ply or some the right thickness and marking top and bottom can be done without the ladder in place. But anyway great job
Kept it simple the whole way through!
Great job...full detailed on materials plus how to construct the project..great job
thank you for your video!!! I am going to attempt to do this for my son in his closet, making a reading area hideout and the closet portion underneath!
Super cool! Craftsmanship and video were very nicely done. Thanks😀
Great job,lucky kids.
IT'S REALY NICE AND SPACE SAVERS, IT GIVES ME AN IDEA TO INSTALL ONE ON MY TINY HOUSE.THANKS ALEX AND QUITE HANDSOME AND TALENTED BOY THINKING YOU'RE A FILIPINO AS YOUR NAME IS.
Parábens! Ficou lindo! Faltou apenas o escorregador!
Thank you for the good presentation.
My dad did this I was side ways against the wall...above my head but he worked in the sun 117 degrees all day kinda worked out for us
Excellent work! Commentary very detailed.
if you ever wanna putt some storge in ther play u could cut out between the studds from the bottom of the loft and add hinged boxs to be used as hide away storge for toys or what u wanna store or hide ...
now i have no clue if that might weken it or not being as u look like u do this line of work u might know more than me i just thought it might be a kool idea for extra storge for u and your family to us...
Cool i am on the process of designing my dream home...and i like this
Alex, thanks for sharing this amazing video. Can you please tell me how much weight this can hold ? thank you!
Like the brand use. I'ma DeWalt person myself, good instructions well explained keep up the good work
Is it bad that I'm 20 and considering doing this? I think there's a stigma around loft beds being only for kids, but I think it's great for space and I can have my desk computer set up underneath. Amazing video, kudos.
Jordan Aaron Smith I think it's a great idea for small rooms ..i don't really think it matters how old you are loft beds are pretty cool
Hahaha Jordan Aaron Smith that's funny Man! To be honest aren't we all kids at heart?! I wish I had this when I was young and to be honest I get a kick out of climbing up there all the time! I can see myself being 70 and still wanting a loft bed and a swing in my bedroom! Thanks for checking the video out and for the comment!
You are perfectly right Jazmin Arguello! Thanks for checking it out!!
There's probably a stigma I mean nothing quite screams 'you're not getting any' like a high up single bed with a ladder attached but they can be done for adults. I've seen doubles with stairs.
If I buy a studio flat I'd definitely considering having one and I'm 36. I think I'd probably have support beams though for my peace of mind.
Jordan Aaron Smith lol no
Great job!!! I will be making my daughters the same way. Thanks for keeping it simple.
I know this is late...but I just came across this. This is massive overkill. I've built beds like this and beds with supports using 1x4. He build this strong enough to put a waterbed on. While I agree with 2x6 along the sidewalls, The rest can be made using 1x4 fro cross supports with 1x6 along back wall and front face.
Excellent video. Very good at explaining stuff.
That's a really pretty color of pale blue.
beautiful and sturdy loft bed. But its too close to the ceiling. Wouldn't be better if installed lower so that kids wld not feel suffocated while sleeping. cool idea for small bedroom creating an additional sleeping area for visitors as well.
Wow! This is such an amazing project that came out amazing. I’ll be building one in the near future. Thanks again for the detailed video. Your a great dad! God bless!
Good job boss men GOD blessing you more
This is a great project. I really like your design considerations regarding safety features. I was wondering if you think it is possible your boys could contact the light tubes and break them? Good job dad.
Grandfather of five.
I would change the position of the light. It's not in a good place.
Yes!
I’d change it out to an LED strip light so it hugs the ceiling and don’t hit their heads on it
Great build Alex wish I'd have thought more about pre fixing before I boarded our spare room for the grandchildren
All the best Phil UK
Thanks Phil Hawks! There's always a chance to make something special for them! I'm sure if not a loft bed, some other great project will come to mind! Thanks for the comment Phil!
Great project, like others have mentioned the light is a little scary. If you don't have a ladder to brace you can make a T brace from 2 2x4s we use them for installing ceilings
Great job and amazing work, congratulations from Mexico and a woman hardworking.
really nice thank you , i'll be able to do one for my daughters now!!
Congrats!
I liked it. Puerto Rico & USA
very supportive dog,
Right on Luke Veraperez! Thanks for checking it out bro and for the comment!
Congrats, man. It was quite pleasing to watch. A suggestion: what if you change the lights for some LED, comfortable yellowish, not hanging from above? It will get the space still cozier than already is.
Thanks for this video.. I enjoyed the measuring tape trick as well 👍.... Lots of attention to detail and great finishing...
Génial 👍 super 👍 idée 💡
Very thorough explanation. Learned a lot. Thank you.
👍! Awesome dad; mine can not bake an egg. Helas this is not for a heavyweight like me, ergo 90 kilos. And then the weight of the flooring, and the bed and the bedding. Easily 200 kilos. Btw: lovely dog!
i build my son one of these and he loved it!
May I ask a question? Would it have been any stronger if the joists would have gone from wall to wall rather than from the back wall out to the front piece which is only secured with two lag bolts on each end?
Thanks for sharing! What I didn't find out was the hight from the top of the bed to the lowest part of the ceiling? I'm going to make exact the samen loft but under a flat roof and only got 30" inch. Thanks in advanced
This is a great vid and great job. I’ve been thinking of doing this for my kids and after watching your video I’m definitely going for it great job bro 👍🏼
Take a shot every time he says JOIST. You will have a good time
So this whole place is a playhouse for the kids? Nice job.
Great production. Thank you.
Damn nice job man ...great dad to his kids....you should put a slide for em
Ilove this project i will be doing this at home thanks!!
Great job. Any plans on relocating the lighting to prevent the kids from accidentally hitting it?
That's what I was thinking about the lights...or at least he could have made it about 3 inches lower or so
What a great simple video , well done
Nails and screws are designed to be changed interchangeably. One is for shear strength, the other for withdrawal.
Awesome job brother!!! Thanks for you knowledge!!!! 👍
Great work, thanks for sharing! Bet the kids loved it!
Hey Icaro Matos! Thanks for checking it out! They absolutely do love it and there's so much more to do such as a tv... ac... and small little things to make it their get away! Even thinking a small fridge Lol! Thanks again bro!
Great explanations. I love it. You did a great job and I enjoyed your video.
Very good job man!! thnxs!!
Insfiration your vidio 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I’m starting my project based off of this. Thanks.
Thank you so much for this tutorial! We have used this although had to adapt it to our brick walls. It has come out amazing! Although the base is the same we have done the safety rail slightly different and decorated it in line with my little girls love for pink and all things girly. Wish i could post a picture! My husband is not a 'diy'er but this gave him hope that he could make something great. Thank you 😊
Wow... As a dad, your so AWESOME.
I hate that I should be the one doing all this for my small room the isn't even entirely mine. I'm even planning where to put all the wood. I'll start saving money to buy these for my own. Please do a "How to remove dark spots in your room" video. I hope the wood I hammer myself doesnt break down.
This was very well explained. Do you have a cut list?
Thank you so much. This helped so much. Great job. Thanks again. 👏👏🙋♀️🤗
Awesome! Thanks for sharing.
amazing craftsmansip.. keep in touch
This is beautiful ty for showing how to make this loft bed... #inspired
Hi Alex, Thank you for the video it's exactly what I'm looking for, for the space and bed size I have to use. Maybe I'm missing it but do you have any "plans" I can use or supplies list and measurements for the wood that I can use to make this?
+ mattress = no space ! lolz ... I would have pined a 1" bead inside the frame and sunk a 3/4 inch ply board for the whole base, the mattress then sits inside the frame for space efficiency ...
ฟฟ
Only one additional parts of the wooden ladder at the top should be ADD one curve wood on it the same level to the floor level to look nice and beautiful.
Great video!!! Great project too. How do you keep the kids from breaking the ceiling light??
My thought's precisely.
Then when you installing the bottom plywood just set up your steal scaffolding with 4' cross bracers and remember to count the 22" for the aluminum I beam and 4x6 on edge to give it that strength to hold it up! And if you are un sure you can throw a few steal shoring up in between the I beams jus to beef it up!
And please don't for get to clip it!! We don't want some random shoring dropping and hitting some one in the head. Buy this point it should be safe enough to start screwing in the plywood, remember to use your hard hats and eye protection and ear plugs!
😂😂😂😂
Great job.! But I think it's too high.once the matress is on...watch the head.
Brazil, I Love It
Sweet video. Thanks! Chill a bit on the monetization. It was like 30 commercials. 🙏
this is fine, but isn't it too close to the ceiling?
I think you should make the top end of the ladder a bit rounded for added safety of your children.
Awesome video Alex!
You inspired me to tackle on a similar project!
If I missed it I apologize but, could you tell us the length and diameter of the Lag Bolts/Screws that you used?
Judging from when you were screwing in the 2nd Lag Bolt they are at least 4" in length but not sure on the thickness. Thank you!
Im just curious but the platform be much stronger if the support beams ran length wise instead of width wise like how you have it?
Can you set the blocking all aligned and screw (or nail) them diagonally from the inside? Like what you did in the end portion near the wall?
i have a room with a pretty high ceiling and i think i wanna make an extra room, for bed and work space, by using this technique, it is possible to support all the weights?
Nice job. 😀
This is amazing , I’m showing my dad lol put the mattress up I want to see
Amazing work. it really good
