A lap plate is a steel panel used in scaffolding systems to fill gaps between scaffold platforms and create a secure walking surface. In Kwikstage scaffolding, lap plates are positioned between scaffold boards to provide stability and ensure the platform remains level, reducing the risk of trips and falls.

Lap plates serve several important purposes:

Gap Filling: They fill gaps between scaffold boards or platforms, providing a level walking surface.

Safety: By creating a continuous surface, lap plates reduce trip hazards, improving worker safety.

Stability: They enhance the structural integrity of the scaffold by connecting platforms securely.

Efficient Installation: Easy to install, lap plates help extend scaffolding platforms, saving time and labor costs.

Lap plates are typically made from high-strength steel, ensuring they can handle heavy loads and rough conditions. The steel is often galvanized or powder-coated for corrosion resistance, making them durable and weather-resistant for use in various environments.

Lap plates are easy to install:

Place the lap plate between the scaffold boards on the Kwikstage transoms.

Secure the lap plate with bolts or clamps.

Ensure the lap plate is flush with the scaffold to maintain a level surface.

Check that the lap plate is firmly fixed and safe for use before allowing workers on the scaffold.

Yes, lap plates are reusable. As long as they are inspected regularly for damage or wear, they can be reused on different scaffolding setups. This makes them a cost-effective solution for contractors needing to maximize their equipment.
