Weisshorn Manual Pull Out Caravan Step Folding RV Entry Stair 200KG Capacity Non-Slip Aluminium

The doorway of a caravan or motorhome usually sits somewhere between knee and thigh height off the ground, which is fine at twenty-five and less so after a long day's drive. A step you pull out and lock is the difference between climbing in and simply stepping in.

Pull it out and the spring does the locking

There is no crank, no motor and no wiring. The step slides out by hand and a spring lock drops it into position; folding it away is the same movement in reverse. An electric step is one more thing to fail at a remote campsite and one more draw on the battery. The supplier calls the extend-and-fold action smooth, which decides whether a step gets used or left folded.

Rated to 200 kg, with an anti-slip tread

Weisshorn rates the step at 200 kg, and gives that as the capacity of the step itself rather than a combined or per-person figure. Construction is heavy-duty aluminium with solid steel, which stops the platform flexing underfoot the way a thin rung does. The tread carries an anti-slip surface, which earns its keep on the wet mornings when a bare foot lands on it first.
