From my research and experience installing steps on fifth wheel campers your 2013 Forest River Rockwood Signature Ultra Lite Fifth Wheel the door opening should be 30" to 36". If I am correct I recommend SolidStep Manual Fold-Down Steps for 30" to 36" Wide RV Door Frames - Quad - Aluminum Item # LC791575. Most fifth wheel campers sit a little higher. Having the fourth step ensures the bottom step is not too far from the ground. The steps have adjustable legs for un-level terrain so you steps will sit level.

I also recommend Lippert Entry Assist Handrail for SolidStep Manual RV Steps Item # LC799640 to give you something to grab onto when walking in and out of the camper and the SolidStep Lift Assist Kit for 30" to 36" RV Doors Item # LC733939 to help assist when raising and lowering the steps.

If you are removing your old folding steps there is a storage box to fill the space and add more storage. I recommend SolidStep Locking RV Storage Box - Powder Coated Steel - 100 lbs Item # LC664640

I have provided links to videos to help walk you through installing each of these items.
