A 59-in folding bed rail swings down so a child 2 years or older can get in and out of bed more easily when it is unlocked. When raised, it creates a barrier along the mattress edge to help keep the child in place during sleep. A metal frame wrapped in oxford cloth and mesh fabric forms a breathable side that improves ventilation and visibility. The removable, washable cover lets caregivers handle spills or dirt quickly. T-shaped legs, an extra metal crossbar and an elastic safety belt help secure the rail to beds with 4.72-11.81-in thick mattresses.
