Transitional housing, or bridge housing, provides a place to live for individuals or families who have experienced homelessness. These facilities give people structure and supervision while helping them get support for addiction or mental health.
Individuals living in transitional housing may stay from three months to three years. Housing owners and managers must create a welcoming environment to make the transition easier and safer.
ESS Universal manufactures various transitional housing beds and mattresses to help fill these spaces with comfortable, durable, and safe furnishings.
What to Look For in Transitional Housing Beds
When your facility is looking for beds to upgrade or complete your transitional housing, it’s essential to look for high-quality furniture. After all, these beds and mattresses will be used daily for years. They must be durable enough to withstand heavy usage.
You’ll also need variety. Residents come from varying backgrounds and may have a companion or children with them. When your facility can offer various sleeping options, you can ensure they will feel more comfortable throughout their stay.
Transitional Housing Beds From ESS Universal Will Meet Your Needs
If you are a transitional housing manager or owner, ESS Universal transitional housing mattresses and beds should be at the top of your list. We have a variety of options that will provide your residents with a plethora of sleeping accommodations.
The variety of bed types you can choose from include:
Many of these beds have platforms rated at 500 pounds, helping you provide accommodations for sleepers of any size. However, those aren’t the only distinctive features of ESS Universal transitional housing beds.
Durability
Because transitional housing is temporary, your residents continually change. Having a durable bed and mattress is important. At ESS Universal, we design our beds with long-lasting steel frames. The guard rails connect to the headboard and footboard to provide additional support.
Each bed is supported by six box-section cross members made with industrial-strength metal mesh panels. Our beds have no springs, meaning no squeaks if your residents toss and turn. Additionally, ESS Universal beds always meet the strict entrapment standards of the U.S. and U.K.
Resistant to Moisture and Insects
Transitional housing beds are susceptible to wear and tear, like water damage and bed bug infestations.
Beds from ESS Universal are created to withstand damage from external elements. They have sturdy steel tubing that is welded on every side, adding to the durability of the bed but also preventing bed bugs and moisture from entering the metal frame.
These beds will provide functional sleeping accommodations for your residents for years. Whether you choose a single bed or the incredible triple bunk bed, you’ll have heavy-duty furniture your guests will appreciate.
Allow You to Maximize Space
Many transitional housing facilities are bombarded with clients trying to get an available bed and the help they need. Bunk beds from ESS Universal can help you maximize your space and accommodate more individuals.
Children often love the idea of having a bunk bed. It helps them feel closer to their family than if they were to sleep in a single bed.
Complement Your ESS Universal Bed With Transitional Housing Mattresses
ESS Universal doesn’t just produce high-quality beds. We also have affordable mattresses to complete your sleeping accommodations. Our mattresses are hypoallergenic, sturdy, and stain-resistant and fit the wide variety of bed styles we offer.
We make these mattresses from foam that conforms to the shape of the sleeper’s body, providing more support for the head and neck. Polyurethane covers are quiet and spill-proof, preventing accidents from soaking into the mattress and inviting mold and other bacteria.
Our transitional housing mattresses can withstand high-volume use. You’ll continue to have a comfortable place for your residents to rest for a long time.
