When working at height with Builders Trestles, there is always a danger of falling. To prevent dangerous falls and to comply with Work At Height Regulations 2005 , a Trestle scaffold should be equipped with a handrail system. A handrail system provides a safe working platform with safe ladder access. The system consists of handrail posts, Handrails, side or end gate, ladder bracket and outriggers / stabilisers. The builder’s trestle system is a flexible work platform that is ideal for simple tasks in construction or maintenance projects. Setting it up is easy. This is a system with minimal components and ease setting up, dismantling, storage, and maintenance are all aspects of this scaffold.
