Werner 79023 Adjustable PRO Work Platform
The professional-grade aluminium work platform built for any surface — including stairs.
Product Overview
The Werner 79023 Adjustable PRO Work Platform is a versatile, lightweight aluminium hop-up designed to meet the demands of both trade professionals and enthusiastic DIYers. Whether you're painting ceilings, fitting spotlights, or working on a staircase, the 79023 delivers a stable, non-slip platform at the right height for the job — every time.
With 10 independent height positions between 0.51m and 0.76m, each leg can be adjusted separately, making this the ideal solution for uneven floors and stairwells where a standard platform simply won't work. At just 9.75kg, it can be carried in one hand, and folds completely flat to just 11cm depth for effortless storage in a van, car boot, or workshop.
Backed by a 5-year Werner warranty, the 79023 is built to the standard that serious tradespeople expect.
