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.

The end of the work platform can be blocked off using the access gate but this gate can only be used for loading materials and not as an access point for personnel.
