Used along with the pump jack system, I have found this workbench to be indispensible for jobs such as siding and window installation. Not only does it provide a more secure working environment, but it also holds tools such as your compound saw, thus keeping you from having to climb down for every cut. I wouldn't trade it for anything!

After many years of nailing 2x4's on the pump jack poles, I finally bought several of the workbench/guard rails. The make pump jack work so much easier,safer & faster when you're 30 ft in the air.

If you are setting up scaffolding, you MUST use this item as it has provisions for a back and toe-board. I do not know why this isn't integral to the pump jack that is sold separately...it would be insanity not use this item...

Homeowner - not a professional who would use these all of the time.

These work, but aren't he best design in the world. When you jack up your system, make sure any shelving you rigged to these is attached somehow to keep it from sliding off.

Make sure you pull the "wings" over the jack system when you attach it, else the corners will dig into your columns when you lower.

The 2x4 safety bracing isn't the best design in the world either. I had one refuse to move and snapped two screws holding the 2x4 until I "assisted it" with a ballpeen hammer. They must have ran a lot of paint between the brace piece and the unit itself that held like epoxy (until the ballpeen unepoxied it).

Very pleased with the height the shelving is when it's attached to the jacks.

If I were in a business where I needed a system like this a lot, I'd keep looking. But, for occasional homeowner use, they are acceptable.

Note: the blue Warner system you can get at the box stores looks exactly like these and is cheaper to purchase. I would have saved several hundred on my system had I researched a little more.
