5.5m Scaffold with Outriggers & Trapdoor – Medium
Our 5.5m scaffold with outriggers medium is a more complete configuration for renovation, property maintenance and general trade work where additional stability and convenient platform access are required.
This model includes outriggers to provide additional stability when correctly installed, together with a trapdoor platform for convenient access between scaffold levels.
With a 1.8m × 0.97m footprint, the medium-width scaffold provides useful working space while remaining narrower than our large scaffold range.
Made from pre-galvanised steel, the scaffold has a 225kg Safe Working Load (SWL) and is fitted with lockable swivel wheels.

Outriggers for Additional Stability
The included outriggers extend the scaffold support area and provide additional stability when correctly installed.
Correct positioning and installation of outriggers is particularly important on taller mobile scaffold configurations. Always follow the supplied assembly and safety instructions.
Trapdoor Platform for Easier Access
The trapdoor platform provides a convenient opening for access between scaffold levels, making it easier to move through the scaffold structure when accessing the working platform.
Combined with the included outriggers, this configuration is a practical option for customers who require both improved access and additional scaffold stability.
Medium Width for Versatile Access
The approximately 0.97m-wide frame gives this scaffold a useful balance between working space and overall scaffold size.
The 5.5m scaffold with outriggers medium is suitable for:
- Exterior painting
- Gutter and fascia work
- Building and renovation projects
- Property maintenance
- Wall and ceiling maintenance
- General trade applications
Safety & Setup
Lockable swivel wheels allow the scaffold to be repositioned when required. The scaffold must not be moved while occupied, and all wheels should be securely locked before use.
For a scaffold of this height, correct stabilising and safety components are particularly important. Always assemble and use the scaffold according to the supplied instructions.
Workplace use and work at height may require additional safety components, specific setup requirements or a qualified scaffolder depending on the application and platform height.
