broken image

Dallas Ladder is a southern distributor for Little Giant Ladders. The Rowlett, Texas, company carries additional products, from aluminum pump-jack equipment to tilt wall braces. Dallas Ladder is one of the largest stocking distributors of stage boards and pick boards in the South.

Also known as scaffold boards and wallboards, stage boards are planks that function as stable walking surfaces for workers and level ground for equipment when working at an elevated position. Consumers will find them in various materials, including wood, and feature numerous brackets and fasteners that bind the surface to a scaffold frame.

Stage boards have several uses, including scaffolding projects like pump jack scaffolding, folding trestles, and catwalks. Project leaders can order stage boards in various sizes depending on their scaffolding needs, with lengths from eight to 32 feet and load ratings of up to 500 pounds. Individual planks typically measure about 14 inches and provide enough space for two individuals at a time.
