As you'll quickly see from the pictures below, when you compare our design and features side-by-side with the competition...
Our 6' heavy-duty Scaffolding is rated to hold up to 750 lbs.*
Their 6' light-weight Scaffolding is rated to hold only 500 lbs
* In our factory tests, our trusses and ladders (without the plywood platform) have successfully held 3,000 lbs. This is just one of many indicators of our product line’s strength, durability, and longevity. It’s no wonder so many of our customers still have their Gentex scaffolding working on the job 20 to 30 years after their original purchase! As you scroll down these photos, you’ll see exactly why our scaffolds last so long. Can the same claim be made by “THEM?”
