I'll show you how to remove the side panel on the IKEA Sundvik Crib so your toddler can use it as a climb-in child's bed. The steps are similar for most IKEA baby cots that include the sideboard when you purchase it.

ikea has a way to order replacement parts, but that may just be for hardware, not sure about this plank specifically. it wouldn't be that hard to make a new one out of a plank of wood (size the board doesn't matter too much as long as the length is correct)

@CluelessDad4 жыл бұрын
sorry for my late follow up. Yes, there's definitely an issue w/ the kid rolling out of the bed in the middle of the night. but not just rolling out, their legs hanging out off the side as they sleep. I recommend putting a thick cushion next to the bed so they don't fall if they roll out. Also we ended up putting the lid of a plastic ikea bin against the side, so there's a barrier for him to just rolling out. if he tried to kick it would move out of the way, but having it just be there kept him in place.

Our kid is 3.5 now and could still use it, but we're moving him to a "KRITTER" bed frame from IKEA so our baby can use the Sundvik in the full crib configuration. I think probably around 4 or 4.5 you can get away w/ still using this. I recommend getting a safety bar though to make sure your kid doesn't roll out....
