Rate the pair against the workpiece plus the working forces — leaning, pressing and the weight of tools on the job — with honest margin. Capacity per trestle is listed on each product page; halve nothing and round nothing up. Heavy fabrications and machinery belong on the heavy-duty supports, not stretched builder's trestles.

Adjustable earns its premium wherever floors are uneven — most sites — or tasks vary between board work and assembly heights: matched, level support is what adjustability actually buys. Fixed-height steel trestles win on simplicity and price for the workshop with a flat floor and one working height.

Supported so both pieces stay stable when the cut releases — the moment that tips work and trestles. Keep the load centred, the trestles matched in height on firm feet, and the cut line positioned so neither offcut nor workpiece cantilevers into a fall. Two extra seconds of setup is the whole discipline.

Only within the rules that govern the platform system: staging and platform work has its own requirements for capacity, width and edge protection, and the platform manufacturer's specification — not the trestle's load rating alone — decides what's compliant. For material support, trestles stand on their listed ratings.

Trestles

View as Grid List

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.

Steps, ladders and handling equipment complete the section. For site quantities, contact the team via WhatsApp 07754288583.
