Create a mezzanine

When you have a platform bed in your room, you may want to add a mezzanine to it. You can do this in several ways. You can raise the height of the platform to create a more realistic space. You can also add a ladder to access the mezzanine. Be sure to create enough height for your head, and be sure to use the right materials.

First, you need to make sure your platform is slightly lower than the height of the bed. You can adjust the depth by holding Alt while you do so. Next, you need to add the posts. You can also move them around freely, but be careful, as the posts may glitch. Then, you need to position them to fit your platform bed. After that, you can add the floor covering and wall covering.

Place a second bed on top of a platform

To place a second bed on top of a standard platform bed, the first thing you need to do is place the bed in line with the platform. To do this, hold down the Alt and LB buttons. You’ll want to stop moving the bed before it snaps down. After placing the bed, press 0 and 9 to raise it again. However, be aware that this method is prone to glitches.

The second way to place a second bed on top of a standard platform bed is by raising the floating posts to the height of the first. Press the nine and 0 keys to add another post. The second post will be the height of the headboard. Then, place the other floating post on top of the first one. When you’re done, you can move the first bed back down.

Add stairs

There are many ways to add stairs to your platform bed in The Sims 4. You can use the tool to build a new tile to place stairs. Using the platform tool, you can also create a custom ladder. The latter option is the easiest, and it eliminates the “moo” cheat. If you have limited space, it’s best to place a platform against a wall. After that, you can place your bed on the platform, and use the 9 key to move it.

The first step to add stairs is to position the platform a few clicks higher than the height of the top bunk. This ensures that the child Sims head cannot clip through the top bunk. You can then add the wall covering and flooring, or wait until you have finished building the platform bed itself. Alternatively, you can place the stairs after completing the platform bed. This way, the stairs will be visible and usable.

Place a half-wall around a platform

A half-wall around a platform bed in the Sims 4 is a great way to decorate the platform with any wall covering you want. If you have no idea how to do this, read on to learn how to do it. The platform bed is extremely versatile, and can be used for several purposes. It can be lowered and raised using small arrow controls, or it can be raised and lowered by adding stairs.

First, note that you can place walls around platform beds but not on them. When you build a platform bed in the Sims 4, the wall base will line up with the bottom of the story level, which is the opposite of the foundation interaction. The best way to create a wall around a platform bed is by placing a half-wall, and this can be easily done with the wall tool. Remember, however, that you must make sure the wall is taller than the platform.

Place a post

The first step to making a platform bed in Sims 4 is to place a single bed on the platform. You can make this bed as long as you have a post on each corner. Once the bed is positioned, you can move the posts to the four corners. To place a post, hold down Alt on PC or LB and RB on Xbox and L1 and R1 on PlayStation. Just be patient; post placement is finicky! If it glitches, you will have to start over.

Next, you need to place a wall. This will be needed to place the platform. You can also place a post in the middle of an existing room. Make sure that the wall is taller than the platform. After placing a post, you need to place another wall on top of it. Depending on which way you place the wall, you can have a bed on top of it or on the ground.

Place a ladder

There are a number of ways to place a ladder in The Sims 4’s Build/Buy Mode. Ladders can be found in the new Stairs & Ladders section. Everybody who owns the base game will have access to the Classic Wooden Ladder, which is a basic design and comes in 16 different colour variants.

The platform must be four clicks higher than the bottom bunk to be usable for a child. For an adult or teen Sim, the head will clip through the top bunk. You can then add wall covering and flooring, or wait until the bed itself is built. However, if you do not want to add these extras, you can always play test it by building a fake room with half walls, and then placing the second bed.
