Will Brophy Camper Scissor Steps Work for You?

Scissor steps are typically installed on truck campers, but can be attached to your truck's tailgate using a special mounting bracket (TSSB - sold separately). After the initial installation, they're easy to attach when needed and detach for compact storage. To ensure you choose the correct size for your application, there are a few measurements you will need to take.


Brophy Mounting Bracket

The Brophy scissor steps have a single mounting bracket that attaches to either the camper wall or the truck bumper beneath the doorway. To decide which size you'll need, locate the space available for the mounting bracket on your application that lines up with the doorframe, and measure the width and height. You will need a mounting space at least 18-1/4" wide and 1" tall.


If it turns out you have more space beneath your doorway, there are larger step assemblies available with 24" wide brackets. A full list of the available steps is below.


Once you have an approximation of where the mounting bracket will go and what size mounting bracket you need, the spot you chose will be used as the "mounting point" to determine how many steps you will need.


How Many Steps Do You Need?

Brophy Entry Height

To decide on how many steps you'll need, measure from the "mounting point" to the ground. This is called the entry height. The entry height should roughly match the height of the steps when they're fully extended, and it will also tell you how many steps you need.


The chart below displays entry height measurement ranges in the first column. If you determined you need an 18-1/4" mounting bracket, the step part numbers with that width are in the second column. If you determined you need a 24" mounting bracket width, the step part numbers with that width are in the third column. Choose the bracket size that is closest to your measurements without going over.


This page's step assembly is in bold text.

24" - 30"AS03, SS03AS23
31" - 40"AS04, SS04AS24
40" - 48"AS05AS25


How Do You Install the Steps?

To install the steps:

  1. Find the mounting spot for the bracket on your vehicle
  2. Unfold the steps and attach to the mounting bracket "V" clamps
  3. Place step assembly against camper or bumper

    -Make sure assembly is centered beneath the doorway

  4. Mark the mounting holes on the camper and drill
  5. Remove steps from bracket and set aside
  6. Attach the mounting bracket to the camper

    -Secure in place with included lag screws

  7. Hook stairs into mounting bracket "V" clamps and extend

  • Can Brophy Camper Scissor Steps # SS03 be Mounted to Toyota Tacoma and Slide-In Camper
    The Brophy Camper Scissor Steps # SS03 referenced in your question features mounting bracket dimensions of 18-1/4 inches wide, 1 inch tall, and 1 inch deep. The mounting bracket can be attached to any flat surface that can support the weight of the steps and a person on them, so as long as you have the space available there is no particular reason that you couldn't mount it to your Tacoma to allow for easier access to the camper. We have had customers attach the bracket to the bottom...

  • How Much Do the Brophy Steel 3-Step Camper Scissor Steps SS03 Weigh

If you are looking for the Brophy Camper Scissor Steps but made of aluminum instead of steel you can use part # AS03 which weighs around 15 lbs.

  • Camper Steps for 24 Inch Doorway and 24 Inch Height
    There are steps that can work for your Northwind camper and I recommend checking out the Brophy Camper Scissor Steps # SS03 which is a triple step that will work with your 24" height. These are not permanently mounted; instead you install a mounting bracket to your camper and then attach the stairs after reaching your destination. I have added a photo from a customer who has these steps installed as well as a link to a video review.

  • Recommended Camper Step for 20 Inch Door and 24 Inch Threshold
    The SolidStep Manual Fold-Down Steps for 24" Wide RV Door Frames - Double - Aluminum # LC713662 is the closest option to the MorRyde you referenced. This fits the threshold height but does not fit you door frame width. The Brophy Camper Scissor Steps - 3 Steps - Steel - Diamond Tread # SS03 will work well for you and will be removable and able to be stored inside if desired. The bracket will be on the outside but will give you a great option. If you want a more stable option than that...

  • Brophy Camper Scissor Steps Compatible With Bumper Height Of 24 to 28 Inches
    The Brophy Camper Scissor Steps - 3 Steps - Steel - Diamond Tread - 18" Wide - 300 lbs # SS03 will mount to your truck bumper. They use a mounting bracket with a "V" clamp to secure the steps. The steps will expand from 24" - 30" high. The bracket allows the steps to be mounted when the vehicle is stationary and require removal prior to travel. You may be interested in the Aluminum Hand Rail for 3 Step Scissor Stair # AHR3 which secures to the steps and gives you that extra stability.

  • How To Determine The Correct Height Scissor Steps For Camper
    The best option to make getting on and off your current steps easier is adding a removable step like the Adjustable-Height, Folding Platform Step # S-150 which adjust from 4 inches to 8 inches tall and is 24inches long by 16 inches wide with a weight capacity of 300lbs. Another option is to replace your current steps with steps that are taller to be able to reach the ground.

  • Brophy Camper Scissor Step Compatibility with Bottom of Camper Door Measurement
    With the bottom of the door at 24 inches on level ground, the Brophy Camper Scissor Steps - 3 Steps - Steel - Diamond Tread - 18" Wide - 300 lbs # SS03 will have a very slight lean in the tread toward the RV. Unlevel ground will obviously change this and may make this step even more user friendly. To give you the level steps, you would want to use the Brophy Camper Scissor Steps - 2 Steps - Steel - Diamond Tread - 18" Wide - 300 lbs # SS02 which will reach up to 23 inches. This will...

  • Are the Steel Brophy Camper Scissor Steps # SS03 Available in Aluminum
    We do have the Brophy Camper Scissor Steps # SS03 in aluminum. This is found on our site as part # AS03. Please note that the aluminum version has a weight capacity of 250 lbs as opposed to the 300 lbs of capacity that the steel version has. If you would like to add some more stability to these steps then the handrail # AHR3 can be used. The manufacturer specifically states that these steps should not be mounted permanently. You really should remove them before you start traveling.

  • Are the Brophy Scissor Steps # SS03 Easily Removed
    You are correct. The Scissor Steps # SS03 that you referenced could easily be removed from the mounting bracket that gets attached to the RV or wherever you mount it. Basically you install the mounting bracket and then hook the stairs on the hook and then when you want to remove them you lift them off the hook.

  • Can Brophy Steel Scissor Steps Rust
    The Brophy scissor steps # SS03 are steel with a black powder coat. Steel can rust if it is exposed to the elements. Eventually the powder coat can get chips or scratches in it exposing the steel and then it can start to rust. If you notice scratches or chips you can spray paint over them to help prevent corrosion. Another option is to go with the aluminum version, # AS03. Aluminum is naturally corrosion resistant and will not rust like steel. I have linked a video review of the aluminum...

  • Would the Scissor Steps # SS03 fit a 2012 Nissan NV 2500
    If you would be willing to attach the mounting bracket of the # SS03 somewhere 24-30 inches off of the ground the Scissor Steps # SS03 would fit and work well. These are a fairly universal fit step system that should work just fine as long as you install the mounting bracket.

  • Do the Brophy Camper Scissor Steps # SS03 Self-Adjust
    The Brophy Camper Scissor Steps # SS03 do have a little bit of adjustability. They have an expanded height range of 24" - 30" and self-adjust to the terrain. You can add a handrail # AHR3 for a little more stability. Please note that these are not meant to be mounted permanently. There is a mounting bracket that comes with these steps which allow you to install and uninstall them easily.

  • Can Brophy Scissor Steps be Mounted to the Rear Bumper on a 2003 Dodge Ram 1500
    You can attach the mounting bracket for Brophy scissor steps # SS03 to any flat surface that can support the weight of the steps with a person on them. I haven't heard of anyone attaching them to a vehicle bumper but I am sure it is possible. You might want to consider a step that mounts under the bumper such as # B75304 or tailgate ladder such as # 10-3000. I have included some links to videos for you.

  • Stairs for Getting in and out of a Truck Bed Camper in a 2005 Chevy Silverado 1500
    On the Brophy scissor steps # SS03, they measure just 5-1/2 inches from the mounting surface to the nearest vertical support for the first step so it would not work for you. But you might like hitch step # HE4045 if your truck has a 2 inch trailer hitch receiver. You would use the tailgate as one step then this step as the second step down. Another option is the Truck-Pal, # 10-3000. This ladder installs on the tailgate and folds out when needed. I have linked some videos for you to check out.

  • Recommended Cargo Carrier Step for Truck Bed Camper Access
    We do not have a cargo carrier that has a step, but we do have hitch extenders with a step integrated to allow you to have both. I recommend using the Buyers Products 12" Hitch Receiver Extension with Step # 3371804015. You will want to note that using an adapter like this will reduce the tongue weight of your trailer hitch receiver will be reduced by 50% which means your cargo carrier max will be reduced. This will work with any 2 inch receiver compatible cargo carrier. If you are...
