Choosing A Used Scaffolding Supplier

Baker Scaffold

Baker Scaffold is another large scaffolding company that sells complete system scaffold components or subsystem scaffold components - both new and used scaffolding.

Features Of Baker Scaffolding

  • Baker scaffold frames are 6 ft in height and 26.5 inches wide.
  • A Baker system scaffold narrow frame has 6 rungs each, spaced 12 inches apart.
  • The frames are powder coated yellow.
  • The frame is 1.58 inches outside diameter and has an interlock spacing of 27.75 inches from center of stud to center of stud.

This allows the fitting of a 7 ft walk plank. Narrow scaffolding is used in tight places like an alley in a city or in a hallway with high ceilings.

For special Scaffold jobs in tight places, props and outriggers are available. This increases the base width by 30 inches. If using one on each corner of the base, the width can be increased to a total of 60 inches. This increases total width to over 7 ft, which allows freestanding of up to 21 feet. You may stack three sets high and still be stable and within OSHA's rules and regulation requirements.

This kind of system scaffold versatility is not available in the 5 x 5 scaffold sets. These scaffold sets are also meant to be used in very tight places, but shorter outriggers are used and also for stability and safety when freestanding as a tower. The rungs on the 5 X 5 sets are also spaced 12 inches apart so that walk-way planks can be adjusted in very small 12-inch increments.
