Silverline Heavy Duty Trestle 150kg 810-1300mm

The Silverline Heavy Duty Trestle is a steel box section work support built to take serious load on site. Rated to 150kg per trestle, it handles everything from scaffold boards and door blanks to heavy sheet material. Whether you are setting up a temporary work platform, supporting timber for cutting, or creating a staging area in a workshop, this is the kind of heavy duty trestle that earns its keep without being fussed over.

Height adjusts between 810mm and 1300mm, which gives you a useful range across different tasks and different-height workers. The adjusting locking bars secure your chosen height firmly, and the dual-locking safety arms hold the trestle open and stable once deployed. Folding support braces add rigidity at the base, which matters when you are carrying weight up top or working on uneven ground.

How the Silverline Heavy Duty Trestle Performs on Site

Steel box section construction keeps this trestle solid without making it unnecessarily heavy to move around. The dual-locking mechanism is worth noting — a single-lock trestle can feel hesitant under load, especially if it has been knocked about in a van. The double-lock arrangement here gives you two independent points of engagement, so the trestle stays open and stays safe even when it is taking a full working load.

At 685mm wide, the top rail is a sensible working width. Pair two of these up and you have a stable base for a scaffold board or work surface. They fold flat when you are done, so storing or transporting them is straightforward.

Adjustability and Stability

The 810mm to 1300mm height range covers most working positions from a low support bench up to a comfortable standing work height. The locking bars engage at fixed intervals across this range, so you dial in the height you need and lock it off. On a rough concrete floor or an uneven yard, the folding support braces help absorb the slight variation that would otherwise make a rigid-leg trestle rock. It is not a substitute for a level surface on heavy structural work, but for general site and workshop use it does the job reliably.

The Silverline Heavy Duty Trestle comes as a single unit. Most site work calls for two, so it is worth ordering a pair if you are setting up a working platform or a consistent-height surface. Assembly is required on first use, though it is straightforward and takes only a few minutes.

At this price point and capacity, this trestle sits comfortably in the working end of the market. It is not a decorative display stand and it does not pretend to be. It is a practical, load-bearing site tool that stores flat, adjusts quickly, and holds firm when you need it to.
