Our loft beds are designed for mattresses no thicker than 9 1/2" thick; no box spring or other platform is necessary unless your mattress is unusually thin.

With the maximum mattress thickness, the guardrails will extend 5” UP from the mattress surface, which is the minimum to comply with Consumer Product Safety Guidelines. See similar questions...
