Trestles hold the work at working height: the folding steel and adjustable supports that carry timber, doors, panels and fabrications for cutting, finishing and assembly, in pairs, which is how they're bought and used. PartsForMachines supplies trestles to the trade as an Authorised Distributor and Seller for Sealey and Draper, alongside the ladders, steps and handling equipment in the same Storage & Handling section.
The buying numbers are capacity and height: rated load per trestle, with the pair's combined rating needing honest margin over the workpiece and the leaning weight of whoever's working on it, fixed or adjustable height, with adjustable legs earning their cost wherever floors are uneven or tasks vary, and folded dimensions, since trestles live in vans. Formats run from light folding trestles for boards and decorating duties through builder's steel trestles for site carpentry to heavy adjustable supports for fabrication and machinery work, with non-marring top options where finished surfaces sit on them. Each product page lists capacity, height range, top length and weight, with Compare lining up pairs side by side and Ask Simon answering capacity questions.
The use disciplines are short: load centred and within rating, both trestles of a pair matched in height, feet on firm ground, and the workpiece supported where it won't tip when the cut releases, the moment that catches people out. Trestles supporting work platforms move into regulated territory, where the platform system's own rules apply.
