Metaltech CISGRJP Guardrail

Recently bought the Metaltech 6-ft Baker scaffold, and was very pleased with the construction and ease of assembly. However, if one gets involved in their work, it would be possible to turn around and walk right off the scaffold (remembering on the way down that you were on a scaffold). Even if you're not using multiple scaffolds, or aren't at the highest 6-foot setting, falling onto a concrete driveway or floor could be pretty serious. This set of rails is way cheaper than even the resulting doctor/hospital visit, let alone the pain involved.Since my first purpose for this scaffold was to work above the hood on my motor home for running light replacement and some painting, I was concerned that the rails would make getting on/off the scaffold difficult (since the bottom door is not usable due to being over the hood). No problem, the gap under the rails is big enough to easily get through using a ladder (climb to 3rd step, grab the rail and slip right in, see photo).I decided to do this review after seeing all the bad reviews that weren't due to the product, but the shipping. Damaged packages resulting in missing hardware, etc. Mine arrived fully intact, with all hardware, and was easy to assemble and install in just a few minutes. It also adds some stability to the scaffold, so definitely a worthwhile addition!

You will feel more comfortable 12 feet in the air , and safer working.

Product construction feels well built. All the welds are good, easy to assemble. 1 Long rail and 1 Door will be 1 assembly when finished, making it a little bit of a pain to get up to the 2nd tier if your working alone. You could leave the doors off then tighten the bolt after its placed to ease assembly on the rack.

We bought this to paint a 12’ ceiling in the garage of our new house. Since I was doing the cut in, I wanted a scaffold that made me feel secure that high. It was still a little wobbly, but we had the scaffold at the very top, so a little wobble is expected. Got the job done. Success!

I have 2 sets of Harbor Freight Baker's scaffolding that I hadn't used in years. I need to stack them to reach my ceilings, but HF does not offer a guardrail kit. I had rented scaffolding before with the guardrail so I knew the sizes were nearly identical. After painting all my ceilings without a guardrail and actually surviving... I bought this when I had to go back up... I'm several years older with a kid now, so I didn't want to orphan her! This was the best investment I could have made. This guardrail system is very well built, thick metal, finish is great, fit perfectly, and completely changed how it felt to be on top of 2 sets of scaffolding.. I may even try 3 (with the outriggers that I will buy next). You can substitute bolts and nuts for the pins if you want to make it more stable - there is always some movement in all the pinned joints, but not bad at all. The guardrail feels firmly mounted with just the provided latch pins. This should fit any brand of bakers scaffolding of the same size. Seller got it to me much faster than the estimated date. When it arrived, the box was destroyed... but much to my surprise the guardrail didn't even have a scratch on it. This is the best price I have found anywhere, after a significant online search.

These metal tech products are very helpful. I do like that they are not heavy and easy to put together and take apart. It make it easier to get the job done safely.

This guardrail was exactly what I need to make my wife feel better about my working 6' off the ground. I can't say enough about the quality of the construction.

The guard rails arrived on time actually early. Parts were missing. I contacted the manufacturer and emailed them proof of purchase. Within couple of hours I was notified of parts being shipped and I received them in 5 work days. The quality is very good and customer service has to rate a 10 , I am very pleased with the purchase!
