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. The one-of-a-kind landing gear legs take the wobble out of the stirs, adjusting to the perfect height to make the steps even. 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.

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.
Product arrived just as advertised and in a very timely manner. Its very sturdy and is everything we wanted. Thanks for all your help with the measuring and deciding the number of steps I needed. A perfect fit thanks.
Very sturdy for my truck is 54 " of the ground
Easy to use I had to use nuts and bolts to help stairs reach the 350 lb. The lag bolts pulled out under heavy weight.
These are quality steps and we love them! We made the mistake of purchasing a cheaper style and they ended up bowing in the middle due to poor design and construction. That will not happen with these! Better made, better design, and glowing in the dark is a huge plus!
Worth every penny! Easy to use, very solid, adapts to different terrain. Should have been my first purchase for the camper.
Worked perfectly on my truck camper
Great product!
These steps were a life saver. I knew when I bought my Camper that the steps is came with were and accident waiting to happen. The Glow Steps give me peace, they are very durable and they glow at night. They fold up when traveling and are easy to pull out for use.
I would recommend these to anyone.
I bought these steps for my slide in truck camper and they are the bomb. They are easy to install, super stable and very adjustable for uneven or sloped ground. Also, I didn't think it was a big deal to have the glow strips but they sure are a big help at night. I thought these steps were so great that I bought the scissor steps designed for my toy hauler camper as well and no more bouncy bouncy entering and exiting with the cheap factory steps.
These steps look and work great!!!
Nice upgrade for my Alaskan.
Great product super service. Would like to see an easier way to adjust the leg height. The buttons are very secure but hard to push.
Rapid delivery, very well-packed, and complete hardware complement.
As always, well done by eTrailer.
Very nice and great quality product. We are preparing to install, but so far we are very pleased, and will come in handy with our upcoming trip where camper will not come off the truck. GREAT QUALITY!!!
Great customer service and speedy delivery! We clamped the steps into place and theylook great. Can't wait to get them mounted on our rig.
Really appreciate Cammi’s help on this and how quickly I received this product!! 5 stars!!!
Great service by etrailer.com, fast delivery. Paperwork/manual for the stairs in the box. The "Landing Gear" came in a sperate box with a manual for the stairs (second copy), but none for the "Landing Gear. Got on their website to look at pictures see how they fit to install them. Worked out.
The 5 step Torklift steps work very well for our setup. We have a Ram pickup that is lifted and running 37" tires. Bought the steps for a Four Wheel Camper Hawk popup camper. The mount point for the stairs is 42" off the ground, so we needed a good solution for entry/exit, it's way too tall for us to use step stools or short ladders.
The steps were easy to install (took about 30 minutes total) and are very solid in use. The landing gear option for the base was a very good addition as we are almost always camped on uneven terrain. The landing gear is very adjustable with enough steps/stops so I can always get the steps level and solid.
Attaching and removing the steps is pretty quick. They weigh 31.5 lbs, so there's a bit of heft to them, but to be expected for something as heavy duty as these are.
Overall, my wife and I really like the steps after our first year of use. They are solid, the treads provide a good grip even when wet, snowy, muddy, or all of the above. The glow strips are nice too in the late evening or middle of the night and provide a good step guide.
