Height-adjustable pine trestles, sold in pairs

How to choose your trestles
These trestles are suitable for use with a desk or for light workshop tasks. Their adjustable height lets you tailor the table to the person and the activity, while their understated wood appearance fits into a living space.
For building-site work, heavy loads or cutting, a sturdier carpenter’s trestle is more suitable. Consider the tabletop too: its depth should cover the 70 cm width of the trestles, and it should be thick enough not to bend between the two supports.
Installation tips
Assembly: assemble each trestle on a flat surface, following the instructions. Tighten the fixings without forcing them into the pine, then check stability before placing the tabletop on top.
Adjustment: set both trestles to the same height before placing the tabletop on them so it stays level. Space them to suit the length of the tabletop, keeping overhang at the ends to a minimum.
Use: spread the load across the tabletop and do not exceed 120 kg in total, including the weight of the tabletop.
Care and protection
Dust the trestles with a dry cloth. The pine is supplied unfinished: you can leave it as it is or apply wax, oil or clear varnish suitable for indoor wood to help prevent paint, ink or glue stains. Retighten the fixings from time to time, especially if the table is moved often.
Frequently asked questions
What height should I set a trestle at for a worktable?
For seated work, a tabletop height of around 72 to 75 cm suits most people; for standing work, raise it towards the maximum height. These trestles adjust from 65 to 89 cm: add the thickness of the tabletop to calculate the table’s final height.
How much weight can these trestles support?
The maximum load is 120 kg for the pair of trestles, including the tabletop. Spread the weight across the tabletop and avoid placing a heavy load on an overhanging edge beyond the trestles.
What size tabletop should I put on two 70 cm trestles?
Each trestle is 70 cm wide: a tabletop 70 to 80 cm deep rests securely across its full width. For the length, space the trestles so the tabletop does not overhang too far at either end, particularly if it is thin and could bend.
Can these trestles be used for a drawing table or desk?
Yes, that is their most common use: as a desk, drawing or architect’s table, sewing or embroidery table, or occasional table for a craft workshop. Paired with the WoodUp architect’s tabletop, they form a complete table that is easy to take apart.
Can these pine trestles be used outdoors?
No, they are designed for indoor use. Pine is not durable outdoors: exposure to rain and moisture causes staining and warping. For occasional use in the garden, bring them indoors afterwards.
Are the trestles delivered assembled?
No, they are delivered for assembly, with instructions included. If a part is missing, WoodUp customer service can supply it.
