Scaffolding assembly is a challenging task, but it doesn’t have to be complicated. With the right materials and some simple instructions from this guide, you can easily put together your own scaffolding. And just like the handyman in this video, you can get someone to assist you while assembling your scaffold.
The first step is to gather all your materials and lay them out in order. Group the pieces of your scaffold together by similar values like size, color, texture, shape, or length.
Make sure you have all your tools at the ready before beginning. When you’ve done this, assemble the bottom portion of the frame by lining up the support feet with the ladder feet and bolting them together.
Attach the three rails in a T shape on top of the ladder feet. The rails should be parallel to each other and lined up with their respective feet. Ensure you don’t over-tighten or you could put undue stress on your scaffolding and cause it to collapse.
If you’re working on a scaffold or other elevated platform that has roof support brackets, be sure to check each one before bolting it into place—some may require more than just a few screws to secure them securely in place (especially if they’re loose). You can also get local scaffolding solutions to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of your equipment and set-up.
