Side Brackets for Scaffolding - Southwest Scaffolding

Side Brackets for Scaffolding Frames

Side brackets are used to allow a mason or other trade to work right up against the wall of a building, they allow for free walking access along the length of the wall and allow the worker to have access to building materials behind them at waist height. These side brackets attach to the sides of scaffolding frames and are planked to provide an additional working platform, enlarge an existing working platform or to get closer to the wall.

Side brackets can also be used to increase the size of the main work platform. These are different than our outriggers, which are used to enlarge the base of a scaffolding platform, allowing it to be built higher without having to tie off to the wall.
