My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Electrical outlets in bunk area

11 years ago
Are there any special safety features on these outlets? I would like to have outlets in them but am concerned about safety
We are using this picture as inspiration to help us build bunks in our beach house.

    Hi crowinghen,

    Glad you were able to use this image as inspiration !

    These fixtures were mounted using standard junction boxes.

    Hope your project was a success !

    Thank you!

    We are nearly done with the room- the bunks are looking fantastic, if I do say so myself. We re-purposed a used captains bed for the drawers underneath and a guard rail for the upper bunk. We found some great lights at the Habitat for Humanity store too. I had my Hubby put in outlets ( standard also) I will post pics soon!
