Types of Construction Benches

Construction benches provide a safe, sturdy work surface ideal for managing various tasks, from measuring large-scale materials to cutting, applying adhesives, or supporting a work table for more detailed work.

Heavy-Duty Work Benches

Sturdy support for up to a 300-pound capacity makes it easy to tackle a wide range of tasks, even when working with exceptionally heavy materials.

Folding Benches

Folding benches make it easy to maintain a safer job site where workers can find a clear path. They can be folded and tucked away when not in use or transported between job sites, quickly folding to load into a vehicle.

Types of Scaffolds for Construction

Scaffolds for construction come in a wide range of options, including stackable tower scaffolding, mobile rolling scaffolding, and easy-to-transport foldable scaffolding.

Standard Scaffolding

Standard scaffolding is ideal for indoor use and is easy to move around in for painting, drywalling, or repairs.

Tower Scaffolding

Tower scaffolding makes it easy to adjust your scaffold to different heights by adding up to three units to create a stable, elevated working platform. Held together securely and featuring lockable wheels, the tower can be safely moved while providing a safer alternative to ladders, reducing the risk of falls. The platform is also adjustable within each unit.

Rolling Scaffolding

Also known as mobile scaffolding, rolling scaffolding features wheels that make it easy to conduct various jobs throughout the site and move the scaffolding from room to room. The lockable wheels ensure stability when in use, while making it easy to complete tasks such as painting, where frequent repositioning is required. 

They are also available with fold-away tool shelves to keep paint cans, tools, and materials handy for improved efficiency.

Folding Scaffolding

Ideal for home and smaller projects, this lightweight folding scaffolding is easy to store for transportation or storage. The planks for the platform are removable, making it quick to fold the scaffold so it is flat and ready to store or transport.

How to Choose the Right Construction Bench or Scaffold

Choosing the right construction bench or scaffold depends on several factors, including the project, safety, material size/type, and work environment. Use this guide to assist in your decision-making process.

Project Type and Requirements

Scaffolding is essential for elevated work and awkward access that makes using a ladder too dangerous. You require proper balance and height so you can easily reach the areas you’re working on. 

Consider how often you’ll need to move the scaffold while working and whether you’ll need a shelf to access tools and materials. For work benches, height and weight capacity are essential to ensure the bench will safely support the materials placed on it and provide a comfortable height to reduce back strain while you work.

Safety Considerations

Even when completing DIY renovation projects at home, selecting equipment that meets safety standards and regulations is essential. This reduces the risk of injury or accidents that can damage costly materials and your job site. 

We offer construction benches that meet or exceed OSHA and CSA Standards, ensuring your job site is safe. Important considerations for scaffolds and work benches include the right weight capacity, locking wheels, and non-slip footpads. You also want a workbench that is at a comfortable height to reduce back strain.

Durability and Material Quality

Both construction benches and scaffolds must provide stability for safe use. Choosing high-quality, durable options that meet the standards required for your specific project will ensure the equipment is up to the job.

Portability and Storage Needs

If transportation or storage is a concern, you’ll want a portable, foldable option that allows you to easily fold and store it when not in use.
