CUSTERS® Foldy 18SX Pro Series Aluminum Folding Scaffold Tower

Guardrails + Outriggers Package
Safe Working Height: 18 ft | Platform Height: 12 ft | Heavy Duty Rating

The CUSTERS® Foldy 18SX Pro Series is the higher-reach Foldy configuration built for professional crews that need a compact, mobile scaffold solution with a complete guardrail-ready structure and added stabilization. This package is designed for real jobsite access where ladders become inefficient and lifts aren’t practical due to footprint, access restrictions, or repeated repositioning.

If your crew is working overhead for longer durations—commercial maintenance, restoration, MEP installs, or facility work—the Foldy 18SX delivers the reach and jobsite-ready configuration serious pros want.

✅ Guardrails & Fall Protection Guidance

Guardrail and fall-protection requirements vary by jurisdiction, jobsite policy, and application.

That said, for safety and best practice, we strongly recommend using guardrails whenever feasible—especially for repetitive work, longer duration tasks, or when working near edges, openings, or uneven surfaces.

Recommendation for buyers:

• If you are routinely working at elevated heights or performing longer duration overhead work, the 18SX package is the smarter long-term choice.

• Outriggers help increase stability and support professional setup in real jobsite conditions.

⚠️ Fall Arrest Anchorage Warning (Important)

This scaffold tower is not an approved anchorage point for a personal fall arrest system (PFAS). Do not attach lanyards, lifelines, SRLs, or anchors to the tower. If fall arrest is required, use an independent, approved anchorage that is properly rated and installed in accordance with the applicable regulations and jobsite safety plan.
