Will Lippert SolidSteps Work for You?
Fold-down steps are typically installed on travel trailers and some RVs. The fold-down steps from Lippert lift up to latch into your camper's doorway for storage. To ensure you choose the correct size for your application, there are a few measurements you will need to take.
The Lippert SolidSteps install inside your camper's doorframe. Measuring for this may seem tricky, but once you know what to look for, figuring out the right fit for your RV doorway is easy.
Measure between the door frame flanges - the doorway width - to determine the step size that will fit into your camper's doorway. You will need a doorway that is at least 29" wide to 36" wide for these steps to work.
If it turns out you have a wider or narrower doorway, there are other step assemblies that fit doorways ranging from 24" wide to 36" wide. A full list of the available steps is below.
The doorway threshold 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 doorway width measurements in the first column. If you determined you have an entry height between 22" and 28", the step part numbers that fit that height are in the second column. If you determined your entry height is between 27" and 36", the step part numbers that fit that height are in the third column. If you determined your entry height is between 35" and 44", the step part numbers that fit that height are in the fourth column. Choose the doorway width that is closest to your measurements without going over.

Aluminum fold-down steps with 13" deep top step attach to the threshold of your RV. Designed to fit 29" to 36" wide doorways. Industry standard 8" drop/rise between steps. Adjustable legs keep the steps level on uneven ground.Well step showed up with a little damage due to ruff shipping handling. box was tore up, feet hanging out. turned out missing hardware also. I think these should be packaged better! etrailer. was great and gave some credit back for dents and hardware. The The main door closes fine with step out ,but I had trim quite a bit off the bottom of the screen door to get it to work as others have posted. So make bottom of door clearances part of your consideration when buying. The install of step is easy and very basic other than screen door bottom clearance. The top step is huge and the steps are rock solid. I am very happy with steps just plan on maybe some door modifications before you order them
I am currently converting a 20' box truck into an RV. I have found the Lippert products are great fit for this endeavor. These steps are a no brainer for the 36" wide side entry which I am currently using a ladder to get in and out.
Purchased the manual fold down steps for my 5th wheel. Original fold out steps are weak and feel unsafe. Ordering steps through Etrailer was very easy and they arrived earlier than the posted date. Lippert box was very unsuitable and legs were sticking out through the end. They really need to beef up the packaging. Installation was easy following the instructions provided. I also purchased the handrail accessory and installed it on the steps that works in conjunction with the existing handrail on the camper. The steps are just what I had hoped for and are very sturdy for a 300 lb 6’4” man.
Long story short this was the 4th attempt at getting these steps but first 3 were via Amazon. First set were too long. The 4 step model for my camper were too long. Measurements really need to be questioned. I was "inbetween" and it was recommended to go with the 4 step model. Wrong recommendation. 3 step was needed for a perfect fit. Sent those back and then Amazon proceeded to ship me the 26" wide vs the 30" TWICE. In fact the second time it was the SAME BOX I sent back a few days earlier. So, I found the model needed on etrailer for same price. Everything installed as expected HOWEVER, I had to loosen up the bolts for the foot pad and the right leg extension because they just wouldn't move. ALSO, the box did not contain the underfloor mounting bracket needed(if you didn't have a solid wood floor). So that tells me I received a "sent back" unit from another customer. This was also evident by the way the box was taped up and the condition of the box. However, overall the steps are now installed and look great. Slight modification needed on screen door to get it to close but otherwise a great upgrade for the rv. 4 stars because of prompt delivery. Not 5 stars because of "assumption" that it was a returned from another customer item.
The best Rv steps. Easy to install. All Rvs should have this type of entry steps. The ones that came with my Rv were junk. It was a blessing that when my tire blew out and took my factory stairsout as well, that i found "The solid step" Good improvement and a reasonable price.
Fast shipping. Box was damaged when it arrived, but that was the fault of UPS. Looks like everything is ok inside. We won't be able to install these until the weather clears up, but we can hardly wait. We first saw these steps at a boat show and then some friends put some on their trailer. That first step coming out of the trailer is extra wide and that is so nice. We're also installing the lift assist kit. Will get back with you and let you know how the installation went.
The product was great but what was really great was any who I felt with all during my delivery when I called saying that I had not received my package yet she immediately took action and tracked down the status where it was and approximately when it would be in my hands. Amy your service was excellent . Thank u very stratified with the product and it’s installed.
Huge Upgrade on our 2017 Jayco Whitehawk 27DSRL Only Took 15 Min to Install
Review from a similar SolidStep in RV and Camper Steps
I whish l had bought these steps a year ago. Closing inside trailer is the best way to protect them from the elements. My new steel steps rusted out in less than a year. These steps are well built and very stable when you enter. My wife really likes the extra dept in top step.
Rodney C - 08/09/2021Review from a similar SolidStep in RV and Camper Steps
The packages came on the date anticapated and in good condition. Although both packages had been opened and poorly retaped shut. The installation instruction were clear and well written. Installation was easy. I did need to make minor alterations to the exiting threshold to make it fit. The steps are solid, work on a variety of grades and makes it much safer to get in and out of our 5th wheel.
Review from a similar SolidStep in RV and Camper Steps
Product arrived earlier than expected and was in perfect condition with all parts included. It was very easy to install myself thanks to the video from etrailer! I am very happy with my purchase!
Review from a similar SolidStep in RV and Camper Steps
Love this product. The 13 inch top step is excellent for my wife who has knee and hip issues and I like it too. Good price and delivered on time. The first order from etrailer was for boat trailer spring kit and again good product, good price, delivered as scheduled. I will order again from etrailer when needed.

Perfect for my cargo trailer conversion to camping/travel. After a few modifications to the door and threshold all works well. Being we are up there ln age, the step are very safe and sold with no worries of falling when used.Very good product and received in very good order!!!!
Review from a similar SolidStep in RV and Camper Steps
Excellent products, easy to install, they look great. The steps are very solid and will work much better then the steps that came with my RV.
Review from a similar SolidStep in RV and Camper Steps
Installed in my 2009 Heartland Landmark. Easy peezy to install. Only complaint is the box was so tore up in shipping that none of the bag of hardware was included so had to run to Lowe's for the 8 #10 1.5" screws (bought stainless steel to prevent rust). Also.....the threshold of the stairs stuck up too high for the door to shut so I had to do some sledge hammer adjusting (put a towel over the threshold while pounding as not to scratch the pretty flat black paint)
Review from a similar SolidStep in RV and Camper Steps
I purchased these steps to allow my wife who has had both hips replaced an easier time getting in and out of our RV. I modified the steps to create a 5 inch rise on each step. It has worked out great for her. (and me too). It would be great of you could offer a product that already had 5 inch rise steps. There are a lot of folks like us that would like them
Review from a similar SolidStep in RV and Camper Steps
The box was destroyed and parts missing. The steps are ok. This is not etrailer fault just poor packing from lci. etrailer is going to send the missing parts.
Review from a similar SolidStep in RV and Camper Steps
We like the solid feel of the Lippert steps. We no longer have the bounce or spring feel of the steps that were installed by the manufacturer. The only difficulty I had was at a camp ground where the concrete patio was too high and I couldn't adjust the steps so the door would close. I put 2 X 10s under the tires and it raised the 5th wheel high enough for the steps to work properly.
Review from a similar SolidStep in RV and Camper Steps
Steps are excellent. I'm an older guy so sure footing is important for me. You get no bounce when you step on the Solidstep unit. The installation was a breeze. We keep a welcome mat just inside the door so when the Solidstep is folded up leaves or water drops on the mat. Also the stop step is wider giving me added protection against falling or missing the step when coming out of the trailer. The stair skid proof treads gives sure footing even in the rain. We Love this upgrade as mush as anything we have done to our travel trailer. Thank you Solidstep and etrailer.com
Review from a similar SolidStep in RV and Camper Steps
The Lippert steps installed on my trailer made getting in and out much easier. The steps are more rigid have more weight handling capacity than the original fold out steps. Very good addition to the trailer.
Review from a similar SolidStep in RV and Camper Steps
I have a 2012 keystone cougar 327RES. 36’ 5th wheel, I love the step, but think I should have gotten the 4 step. I went back and forth between 3&4 steps and it’s a little much for the first step although the instructions say it would work.
Review from a similar SolidStep in RV and Camper Steps
We are so happy that we purchased these steps. The fold down steps that came with the trailer were just dangerous. the Solid Step system is just that, Solid. the steps are sturdy and wide and the system sits solidly on the ground. Well worth the money.
Review from a similar SolidStep in RV and Camper Steps
This is by far the BEST upgrade to our RV I have done. The steps are more sturdy, they are wider and the angle is not as steep as the original flimsy folding steps that came on the RV. It makes entering and exiting much easier for both my wife with mobility issues and me with 50+ year old knees. Installation was very easy. I did it myself in less than a half hour. In fact, it took longer to remove the old steps (which did not have to be done) than it did to install these new Solid Step. One you install the new Lippert Solid Step, I recommend removing the old folding steps and installing a box there for extra storage.
