A work platform system having a first work platform. The system having a first bracket attached to the first scaffold and extending below and outward beyond the first scaffold between the first rail and the second rail of the first leg assembly. The system having a second bracket attached to the first scaffold and extending below and outward beyond the first scaffold between the first rail and the second rail of the first leg assembly. The system having a second work platform. The first end of the second scaffold is disposed on the first bracket and the second bracket with the first bracket and the second bracket extending between the first rung of the third leg assembly and the second scaffold. A method for using a work platform system.

An adjustable platform extension bracket for work platform systems comprises a post member having two posts joined by a plurality of positional structures. A first connection portion forms a first channel such that the first connection portion is symmetrical along an axis parallel with and passing through the channel. The post member is slidingly engaged in the first channel such that at least one of the positional structures is positionable in the channel. The bracket does not require any diagonal support. The dimensions of work platforms, particularly suspended work platform systems, may be extended using the adjustable platform extension bracket.

A scaffold upon which a person stands includes a platform with a first leg assembly rotatably attached to the platform. The scaffold includes a latch assembly having a latch pivot axis coupled to the platform. The scaffold includes a stud attached to a first leg of the first leg assembly to which the latch assembly engages when the first leg assembly is moved into the extended position to automatically lock the first leg assembly in the extended position where the latch assembly is in a set position. When the latch assembly is moved out of the set position, the stud on the first leg disengages from the latch assembly and the first leg assembly is able to rotate about the first leg assembly pivot axis to a folded position. A method for using a scaffold.
