A scaffold support system having an adjustable-width hanger. A vertical leg may support a foot upon which rests a deck, providing a working surface during building construction or modification. A lateral beam rests on a support structure forming part of the wall of a building with the vertical leg securing to the lateral beam at a plurality of points. A stop secured to the lateral beam to capture a support structure between itself and the vertical leg. The stop may be adjustable along the lateral beam to accommodate support structures of varying widths. An operator may insert the hanger from inside a building and pass the coupler through a gap between a frieze block and a top plate, presenting the coupler for securement to the vertical leg. A catch may slide along the foot into and out of engagement with an edge of the deck to prevent rotation of the deck.

1. An apparatus for supporting a working deck for personnel, the apparatus comprising:a hanging scaffold support comprising: a foot extending substantially horizontally in a lateral direction between a heel portion and a toe portion, and a leg having an upper end and a lower end, the leg extending transversely in a substantially vertical direction from the upper end thereof toward the lower end to support the foot; a hanger selectively securable proximate the upper end of the leg to extend therefrom substantially horizontally; and the hanger further comprising: a lateral beam selectively securable to be laterally adjustable with respect to the leg to extend laterally away therefrom; and a stop selectively securable to be laterally adjustable with respect to the lateral beam. 2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the lateral beam further comprises a plurality of registration surfaces formed thereon, and the hanger further comprises a first lock and a second lock, the first lock selectively engaging the leg and at least one registration surface to fix the position of the leg relative to the lateral beam, the second lock selectively engaging the stop and the lateral beam to fix the position of the stop relative to the beam.3. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein the registration surfaces comprise a portion of the lateral beam having adjustment apertures spaced apart therein, and the first and second locks comprise first and second pins, respectively, selectively inserted into the adjustment apertures.4. The apparatus of claim 3, wherein the stop is a beam extending transversely and having a stop slide aperture to adjustably receive the lateral beam therethrough, the stop further provided with a locking aperture to selectively receive the second pin to fix the position of the stop relative to the lateral beam.5. The apparatus of claim 4, wherein the leg is provided with a leg slide aperture extending laterally therethrough proximate the upper end thereof to selectively and adjustably receive the lateral beam, the leg further having a locking aperture to selectively receive the first pin therethrough to fix the lateral beam relative to the leg.6. The apparatus of claim 5, further comprising:a deck, a bracket secured to the foot proximate the toe portion, a catch positioned along the foot and having a receptacle for engaging an edge of the deck, a lock selectively fixing the position of the catch relative to the foot, and the deck positioned between the bracket and the catch to substantially limit rotation of the deck. 7. An apparatus for supporting a person on a working deck defining mutually orthogonal longitudinal, lateral, and transverse directions, the apparatus comprising:a deck sized to support vertically a person standing thereon during movement longitudinally therealong; a hanging scaffold support comprising: a foot extending substantially laterally to support the deck, and a leg having an upper end and a lower end, and extending substantially transversely from the upper end toward the lower end to support the foot; a hanger selectively securable proximate the upper end of the leg to extend therefrom substantially laterally; the hanger further comprising: a lateral beam selectively securable proximate a first end thereof to the leg to be laterally adjustable with respect thereto and to extend laterally away therefrom, and a stand selectively securable to the lateral beam proximate a second end thereof opposite the leg to extend substantially transversely from the lateral beam toward the lower end of the leg to support a vertical load. 8. The apparatus of claim 7, wherein the stand further comprises a static portion, an extension portion, and a lock selectively fixing the position of the extension portion relative to the static portion.9. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein the extension portion includes a plurality of adjustment apertures, the static portion defines a locking aperture, and the lock comprises a pin selectively engaging the locking aperture and at least one of the plurality of adjustment apertures.10. An apparatus for supporting a person on a working deck, the apparatus comprising:a deck sized to support movement of a person horizontally therealong and to support vertically a person standing thereon; a hanging scaffold support having a foot, extending substantially horizontally to support the deck, and a leg, having an upper end and a lower end, the leg extending substantially vertically from the upper end thereof toward the lower end to support the foot; a hanger selectively securable proximate the upper end of the leg to extend therefrom substantially horizontally; the hanger further comprising: a lateral beam securing the leg to extend laterally away therefrom, a loading structure extending parallel to the lateral beam; and a spacer connecting the loading structure to the lateral beam in a spaced relation.
