6" Deep x 20" wide aluminum camper steps are lightweight and fold up for storage. Non-slip tread ensures solid footing. The included glow tape illuminates in the dark to give you a lighted step surface with no need for wiring or batteries.
Features:
Specs:
Made of durable, rustproof aluminum, the GlowSteps are built to last. The heavy-duty stainless steel hinges provide strength and stability, and they can be easily taken apart in case you need to remove steps or add a step onto the existing stairs. SureGrip tread on each step surface helps to ensure proper footing as you climb into or out of your camper or RV. And best of all, the GlowSteps come with premium glow-in-the-dark tape for excellent visibility at night. Each strip of tape requires only 5 minutes of light exposure for it to illuminate up to 10 hours.
Will Torklift GlowStep Camper Scissor Steps Work for You?
Scissor steps are typically installed on truck campers. The GlowStep scissor steps from Torklift are simple to install. After the initial installation, they're also 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.
The Torklift GlowStep 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 and measure the width and height. You will need a mounting space of at least 20" wide x 1" tall.
Once you have an approximation of where the mounting bracket will go, 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?
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 tell you how many steps you need.
The chart below displays entry height measurements in the first column. The step part numbers with the 21-1/2" mounting bracket width are in the second column.
This page's step assembly is in bold text.
| Entry Height | 21-1/2" Mounting Bracket Width |
|---|---|
| 16" - 23" | TLA7802 |
| 16" - 27" | TLA7802-8000 |
| 23-1/2" - 30-1/2" | TLA7503, TLA7803 |

| 31" - 42" | TLA7804-8000, TLA7504-8000 |
| 38-1/2" - 46" | TLA7505, TLA7805 |
| 38-1/2" - 50" | TLA7505-8000, TLA7805-8000 |
| 46-1/2" - 54" | TLA7506, TLA7806 |
| 46-1/2" - 58" | TLA7806-8000, TLA7506-8000 |
How Do You Install the Steps?
To install the steps:
-Make sure the assembly is centered beneath the doorway
-Secure in place with included lag screws
Add any of these accessories to your GlowSteps for stability, eliminating gaps, and keeping your steps and RV interior clean. The GlowGuide handrail (TLA7621 - sold separately) attaches to the outside of your RV and a bracket on the bottom of the steps. This helps to steady the assembly and adds 25 lbs to the weight capacity of the stairs. The SafeStep vinyl barrier (TLA7602 - sold separately) easily fastens with Velcro strips in between any 2 steps. This prevents you or your pets from accidentally slipping between steps. The DirtDestroyer boot brush (TLA7603 - sold separately) affixes to the bottom of the steps so you can scrape your shoes before climbing into your RV.

This product fit my 2017 Northstar Arrow-U truck camper perfectly!
Shipping was fast and the etrailer.com price was great too!
They fit perfectly. They are really stiff but should get a little better with time.
Even though my camper already had a mount for a previous ladder (which after 20+ years-broke) I was able to alter this units mount to mesh with just a little drilling. The unit appears very sturdy-even heavier than my old ladder. Shipping was fast.
Excellent product
Our Palomino truck camper came with rear step bumper and a single flip down step.
The original bumper step was not very comfortable to use.
The TorkLift scissor steps are much better, safer and more comfortable!
These steps mount directly to the existing bumper brackets that the single step used. Perfect fit up!
Shipping and communication was great as well.
Thanks etrailer!
We are so glad we invested in these. I have bad knees and use a cane, so having these wide and sturdy steps makes it easy for me to enter and exit using my cane! Our setup is a little unusual, a built up canopy on a dually flatbed. The steps are so quick and easy to put up and down. We bought the six step model but found we only needed five. With some online instructions wow were able to tackle that too. We also bought the small keyed lock that is available.
This step has been perfect for our self-built campulance! It shows perfectly on the existing bumper/step and has been a game changer for us and our dogs. We did a 12,000 mile trip last fall and this step held up great! It's pricey, but absolutely worth it.
Great product. Light weight, sturdy, well worth the safety. Easy to install on camper, hook up and take down a snap. Pleasure to deal with etrailer, fast shipping and pleasant employees. Knowledgeable and helpful. Steps work in Canada!
These are very high quality steps! I mounted them to a large aluminum storage box that I have on a receiver style hitch plate The box and step combo make it really nice for getting up and into my camper. The nice thing about these steps is that you can purchase addition mounts and place them at other locations and use the same steps. They also fold and stow very neatly. I purchased the pin lock assy.... but if you have the room they are easy to remove and store elsewhere.
I give this product 4 stars.
Adding a side man door to my truck to rv conversion required a set of special folding steps.
After a year I am still impressed.
These stairs are strong and durable.
I weigh 250 lbs.
All through the construction phase of my project, I
have gone up and down, in and out hundreds of times carrying various construction related loads.
With all of the use to date, my TorkLift Scissor Steps are tight and right with many more years of service to enjoy in the future.

My camper came with the mounting bracket already attached so once I received my collapsible steps, I just inserted the two pins and boom they were ready to go very sturdy. Easy to apply could not be more satisfied. The only thing that these should have are adjustable feet on the end. I was not aware that this unit did not come with adjustable feet Other than that this would score 11 out of 10
Great steps. We got them because I slipped on ice at night on our former sort of janky set up and ended up with a broken arm. Wanted something with more stability. Also wanted something easy to install and that needed little or no maintenance. These steps are it....but see below for the reason I gave them a 4 and not a 5 rating. Installed on a Four Wheel Camper Fleet. Installation was pretty straight forward, but every application will differ at least a little I would think. Really like the glow in the dark tape strip on each step. They are still working and still attached after a year. The one thing I don't like is the process you have to follow to attach them. Our dog rides in the camper so we have to attach the steps multiple times per day. You attach the steps to the mounting bar....sort of a rectangle with one of the long sides missing....using a 1/4 pin on each side. It works...and it doesn't take that long.....but it's alot of fumbling around to get it done. And it's clumsy at best for one person to do it by themselves. Torklift needs to do a better, simpler more elegant design. One other thing....unless you always are on flat level ground....make sure you get the optional leg levelers...one for each side. They will help you avoid that broken arm!!!
I’m extremely satisfied with the TorkLift RV steps I purchased from etrailer. Initially, I received defective parts, but I was able to quickly speak with a real, U.S.-based representative who promptly resolved the issue by sending replacement parts. I own a Wee Roll Nomad 14 camper, a custom DIY build that didn’t come with steps, and these TorkLift steps, paired with the landing gear, provide the perfect lower two-step setup for my rig. They feel incredibly stable and safe for entering and exiting the camper, and they look like a factory-matched fit. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a high-quality, reliable step solution. (Pro-Tip, padlocks work as a great alternative to the removable pins) Thank you etrailer!!!!
The steps came very quickly from trailer. The truck camper I just bought already had a bracket for the glowstep so there really wasn't any instal needed. The 2 pins fit perfect in the bracket holes and the steps pull out very easily. The 4 steps are perfect height for my camper.
Bought the one in sale due to a blemish or damaged box. The blemishes were so minor most people wouldn't even notice.
These steps are rock solid and very well built
Thank you
Great Steps for my FWC Hawk, Fairly user friendly to install once I decided an installation plan.I mounted them below the door entry using the provided Lag Bolts with SikaFlex 221 applied to the bolts and to the mounting bracket. I plan to see how that holds up and might go back and through bolt the bracket if needed! I might also add the Landing Pad Feet after seeing how it does off-road on uneven terrain.
Great service and product.
Excellent product, fast delivery, fair price, good communication/ Thank you!
Very timely delivery, product looks great, we are currently installing it with a different application, using it for a safer way to thread up machinery, operators need access in middle of equipment above their head, this looks like it will work well. After installation and testing of function I will send a picture and feedback and possibly purchase additional units
We bought our camper used, and it came with a different brand 4 step unit. It just wasn't tall enough for our truck. This 6 step unit is just right. Seems pretty sturdy so far. It arrived just in time for our mothers day weekend camping trip. So thankful that etrailer got it shipped out so quickly. It really made this trip easier.
Hard to find a six scissors step , found your site on the web and took a chance as we traveled down the Alcan highway and had a major malfunction with the existing steps that are approaching 20 years old,
Ordered your steps and was impressed with the staff and the updates as they where in route and when I received the package was surprised with all the hardware to handle where ever the steps will be mounted or on what , was really easy on a big foot camper , so as far as ordering and receiving and mounting on camper your 5 star ! But give me a year with your steps before I can review them .
very happy with the stairs, they don't fit the existing rail on the camper, but we are able to replace the rail with the one included with the kit. Thank you

Just fine, more stable than my shorter steps
Work great for my truck camper! Its high off the ground but these stairs fit it perfectly.
As advertised ! Very good quality and, at least for me, easy install. Our camper bought used 10 years ago came with stairs that were never right. 5 steps.
These 6 step stairs were what we needed. Thanks for the prompt delivery also.

After a year of use, the Camper Steps are still an excellent product. They are installed and being used regularly. They are strong, comfortable and very reliable. I am very satisfied. Product and service are highly recommended.
