Staging Boards

Using staging boards to work at height couldn't be simpler. All you need is a set of trestles that are the appropriate height for the job at hand. Once they're in place, lay your staging boards across the gap and make sure they're secure before you start working. Staging boards can also be used to bridge an existing gap as long as they're supported properly. If you'd like extra security, we'd recommend using a staging board with built-in handrail(s). This can make it easier to tackle precarious tasks and should help to prevent accidental slips and falls.

Staging boards can be used to create a safe, sturdy work platform. Commonly called Youngman boards, they are frequently used by builders and other tradespeople.

When working at height, you might be faced with a task that requires more space than a traditional step ladder can provide. Staging boards provide plenty of space for you to store equipment and move around at height. They have a slip-resistant surface to reduce the chances of an accidental fall.

Ladders UK Direct's staging boards come in a variety of lengths and widths, so you should be able to find a staging board that will safely fit in your desired workspace. We provide staging boards with handrails to help keep you safe while traversing wide gaps.

This depends on the type of staging board you choose. Most of our staging boards can support up to 270kg, which means you should be able to use heavy pieces of equipment with no problems. Be sure to check the max load of your chosen staging board before placing your order.
