Welcome to the Trestles category at Build4Less, where we offer a variety of trestles designed to meet the needs of both professional tradespeople and DIY enthusiasts. Our selection includes products from renowned vendors like Faithfull and Batavia, each offering unique features to suit different requirements.

Types of Trestles

Steel Trestles

Our range of steel trestles, such as the Faithfull Steel Trestles (Twin Pack), is known for their durability and strength. These trestles are ideal for heavy-duty work, providing a stable and robust platform for tasks such as carpentry, painting, or plastering. The steel construction ensures they can withstand considerable weight and rough usage, making them a reliable choice for construction sites and demanding projects.

Plastic Trestles

For those seeking a lightweight and easily portable option, our Faithfull Plastic Trestles (Twin Pack) is an excellent choice. These trestles are perfect for lighter tasks and are particularly useful for indoor jobs or situations where ease of movement and setup are crucial. Although they are made of plastic, these trestles are designed to be sturdy and reliable, offering a practical solution for home DIY projects or less intensive professional uses.

Work Trestles with Telescopic Legs

The Batavia Work Trestle with Telescopic Legs represents versatility and adaptability. These trestles come with adjustable telescopic legs, making them suitable for use on uneven surfaces or in areas where a custom height is required. They are ideal for tasks that require a range of heights, such as painting or decorating in stairwells or on sloped grounds.

Practical Uses

  • Heavy-Duty Tasks: Our steel trestles are particularly suited for supporting heavy materials like timber or metal beams, making them ideal for construction and renovation work.
  • Lightweight and Indoor Uses: The plastic trestles are great for painting, decorating, or any other light-duty task, especially in residential settings.
  • Adjustable and Uneven Surfaces: The Batavia trestles with telescopic legs are perfect for tasks that require height adjustments or need to be performed on uneven ground.
     

Choosing the Right Trestle

When selecting a trestle, consider the following:

  1. Weight Capacity: Ensure the trestle can support the weight of your materials and tools. Steel trestles typically have a higher weight capacity than plastic ones.
  2. Portability: If you need to move the trestles frequently, lighter plastic models might be more suitable.
  3. Work Environment: For uneven surfaces or jobs requiring varying heights, opt for trestles with adjustable legs.
  4. Durability: For rigorous and heavy-duty work, steel trestles are preferable due to their robustness and longevity.
