The Metal Store is one of the leading online suppliers of scaffold boards in the UK
What are scaffold boards and what are they used for?
Scaffold boards (often referred to as scaffolding boards, planks, platforms and walk boards) are made of heavy-duty structural timber.
When used as part of a scaffold structure, timber scaffold boards provide a safe, temporary platform for workers when working on the development and construction of buildings.
Scaffold boards can also be used for raising heavy objects, external cladding and insulation walls.
Beyond development and construction, wooden scaffold boards have recently become a popular choice for indoor and outdoor furniture making too. Examples of outdoor projects include benches, flower beds, long lasting decking/decked seating and pergolas. Countless indoor projects can be achieved, such as shelving, work benches and tables.
These boards can be easily transformed from a blank slate into a sleek and modern look for your desired project. You can treat, stain and varnish your scaffolding planks to your liking. The possibilities are endless.
A range of scaffold boards that meet industry standards
We stock untreated scaffolding boards in 7 standard lengths which include the end bands. You can personally cut and modify these for your specific project.
Our standard lengths of our scaffold board include: 3ft, 4ft, 5ft, 6ft, 8ft, 10ft and 13ft. We also sell 13ft lengths that customers can buy in packs of 50.

Get made to measure scaffold boards with our free cutting
If you need your scaffold boards cut to size, we can help. We offer unlimited free cutting across a large range of products, including our scaffolding boards. You will be able to order whatever length you need – so you’ll only need to pay for the exact size you buy.
Scaffold boards can vary by +/-5mm when cut due to the width of the saw blade, so please be aware of this when providing any cutting instructions.
(Please note the wooden scaffold boards we supply are purchased from a supplier which stores the boards outside so these can occasionally arrive wet).
