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.
