Work platform made for local shed erectors, made to fit in between 15ft bays or bolt the extentions on and can do 20ft bays. Obviously it had a floor fitted before use!!

We made a few in the past for different people, until your neighbour informed us that there was no "CE plate" on the platforms we were selling. Only sharing our experience ................

There are restrictions on the circumstances in which non-integrated working platforms can be used. Also, non-integrated working platforms do not come under the Machinery Directive and should not be CE marked.

I made one similar many years ago, only I made mine with a hinge in the middle so it would fold up, and make it easier to carry. I need to do a repair on it as someone drove the roller into it in the shed and its got a kink in it now so the lines aren't straight. Its on the long list of things I need to do.......nice welding work tho, very smart.

I seem to remember they cannot be ce marked, the way the wording is on the guidance.
They should be tested, plated, with the swl clearly marked etc etc.

I've hopefully no need to worry about all that rubbish, the customer provided the steel and workshop all I did was glue some bits of steel together and bill him for fabricating gates!!!!!

Today job, it's a cage for delivering logs as all the wooden boxes they had have disintegrated from bouncing down roads, they use it on an old spud box rotator so just turn up on customers drive and tip them out!
