GENEX SCAFFOLDS GIVE YOU OPTIONS FOR YOUR FOUNDATION With Genex Fiberglass Scaffolds, you have several options for how you can outfit your base. If you will be rolling your scaffold, you will want casters. Genex offers both 5” and 8” diameter casters. Both have a foot activated brake. 5” casters are great for indoors and when you need to be able to roll the base through a standard height doorway. 8” casters are better if you are using the scaffold outside or on rough surfaces. If the scaffold is going to be stationary, base plates are the way to go. Base plates are used in place of casters and they have a flat disk that sits flush on the ground. The scaffold can’t roll with base plates, and the plates even have holes in them so they can be nailed or screwed down.
