The Kwikstage Two Board Hopup Bracket is a practical solution for creating extended work platforms on scaffolding systems, designed to support two standard scaffold boards. Constructed from hot-rolled mild steel with a black painted finish, this bracket offers reliable performance at a cost-effective price point. The simple L-shaped design features open slots for board insertion and welded tabs for secure attachment to ledgers, ensuring quick installation in high-paced construction environments.
Economical Design: Uncoated steel with protective paint (50μm thickness) balances affordability with moderate corrosion resistance for short-term projects.
Dual Board Capacity: Holds two 38x225mm timber or composite boards, with 250mm platform projection from the main frame.
Tool-Free Assembly: Boards slot into place and are secured by gravity, ideal for temporary setups where speed is prioritized.
Basic Load Rating: Supports 200kg distributed load, suitable for light-duty tasks like painting and inspections.
Ideal for budget-conscious projects requiring temporary platform extensions, this bracket is used in:
1. Residential exterior renovations, such as siding replacement and window painting
2. Small-scale industrial maintenance, accessing machinery at height
3. Event staging for temporary lighting and sound platforms
4. Warehouse shelf installation, providing safe access for stock placement.
Q: How long does the paint finish last outdoors?
A: Approximately 12-18 months in moderate climates. Reapply paint annually for extended use.
Q: Can it be modified for single-board use?
A: Yes, though load capacity reduces to 100kg. Always use both slots for optimal stability.
Q: What is the weight of the bracket?
A: 1.8kg per unit, lightweight enough for one-handed handling during installation.
Q: Does it require additional bracing for the extended platform?
A: Yes, install diagonal braces every 3m to prevent ledger deflection under load.
