What Makes the BORA Speedhorse Line So Different?

Not all sawhorses are built the same. The BORA Speedhorse PM-4500 and Adjustable Speedhorse XT are award-winning tools designed to make your job easier, faster, and more efficient.

Unlike traditional folding sawhorses that take time to set up and break down, these models deploy 30 times faster and deliver best-in-class weight capacity through heavy-duty, professional-grade construction.

Key Benefits

• Instant set up in 1.6 seconds
• 1,800lbs weight capacity per sawhorse
• Non-sequential leg folding (folds in any order)
• 45” pre-drilled top to attach sacrificial 2×4
• Built for tough construction, carpentry, and workshop use
• Pro Tool Innovation Award winner (2019)

These aren’t just faster sawhorses. They’re full job site upgrades engineered for serious work.

How Fast is the Setup and Takedown?

Speed is at the core of the BORA Speedhorse design. Traditional models require multiple steps to unfold or collapse, which only slows you down on busy days. The BORA Speedhorse lineup solves this problem with spring-loaded, quick deploy legs.

Simply place your sawhorse on the ground and press the release. In under 2 seconds, it’s ready to support your work. When you’re finished, the legs fold up smoothly (in any order) for fast takedown with no fumbling or frustration.

Why It Matters:

• Save time at every job site
• Reduce physical strain and awkward bending
• Start cutting, clamping, or assembling faster
• Get off-site quicker at the end of the day

The BORA Speedhorse gives you more time on-task and less time setting up shop.

How Much Weight Can a BORA Speedhorse Hold?

Each BORA Speedhorse unit supports up to 1,800 lbs. That’s 200 lbs more than leading competitors. When paired with a second Speedhorse, that’s a combined capacity of 3, 600 lbs which is enough to support:

• Full of sheets of plywood or MDF
• Heavy lumber stacks
• Benchtop tools and saws
• Furniture or cabinet builds

Whether you’re a carpenter, contractor, or serious DIY enthusiast, this level of strength means you can trust your sawhorses to handle whatever you throw at them.

Load Ratings

• BORA Speedhorse PM-4500: 1, 600 lbs capacity
• BORA Speedhorse XT: 1, 800 lbs capacity + adjustable legs

You get industry-leading strength in a frame that’s still lightweight and portable.

The BORA Speedhorse PM-4500 and the BORA Speedhorse XT share the same core features but the XT adds height adjustability, giving you more control and flexibility over your workspace.
