Excellent product. I Have installed this handrail on several other rvs we have owned. Just adds stability coming in and out of the truck camper. I would buy it again.

Glad it's continuing to serve you well, Philip! Looks significantly more useable and substantial than the original one. Hope it "handles" years of use! : P Any more trips planned for the year?

Works great. It is used pnn Disaster response trailers to help with access to the kitchen trailer and shower trailers.

by: Mike T. 10/22/2012

great. I installed the mounting screws into the stud near the door frame. Very sturdy. I put a dab of silicone caulk into the holes per manufacturer's suggest. Directions enclosed were simple and concise. Took about 15 minutes. The handrail shipped right on time and I was able to track my order online.
Hopefully my pics will show up. Great job Etrailer as usual!
Sincerely,

This is my first time ordering from etrailer and won't be the last. The hand rail is even larger than I anticipated! My husband put it on our Coachman travel trailer the same day it arrived! As I am getting older I am having issues from old knee injuries with mobility. This works great to assist me getting in and out of our camper. It has easy instructions to install and It folds away for travel. I wish I would have found it sooner. Big thumbs up!

@D That's great! Thanks for the feedback. What kind of camper do you have?

by: Gene 04/05/2019

It came so promptly. However I thought I got an empty box it was so light! So easy to install! It was delivered and on my camper in less than 45 minutes. We had heard of people being worried that someone from the outside could lock you in by flipping over the handle. Although it holds it well in the folded position, pushing on the door from the inside will easily flip it back open. Although my wife really likes it for entering the camper, I never thought how much it steadies me exiting the camper.
It came yesterday and we take out the trailer for the 1st time this weekend, so this should give us a good use test, but just loading up it was so handy! Thanks for a great product.
If there is any "con", I was a bit surprised that it fits a bit loose when in the extended position. It doesn't really affect using it, but it doesn't give a "rock solid" feel that I was kind of expecting.

This is an excellent handle for my truck camper. It was a replacement for the original handle that had broken. Shipping was very quick. Although the handle and dimensions were an exact size, I did have to redrill for several screws. However it was quick and easy and actually is a stronger mount than the original. Since I found the same handle for a cheaper price elsewhere, etrailer quickly refunded me the difference as well. I have bought many things from them before, and will continue since they offer such quality products and a high level of service. Thank you etrailer!

Great! Holding up well.

by: Davew 10/18/2016

On a previous travel trailer had the Grab Handle and worked good for my wife. This one was purchased for my mother who has 3 steps going up to her garage. She didn't want a full blown hand rail so we compromised with the Grab Handle. She's very happy with something to grab onto to help steady as she goes up and down those couple of steps.

It did work on the right side but if you pull down on the handrail it could come out of the notch because you have to turn it over if you screw it close to the door but think it will still work.

This is a great product. I have two steps leading from my house to my garage. I installed it on the wall of my garage to help my husband, because he has a difficult time getting up and down these steps. I plan to get one for the other side of the steps. It looks great and is a big help for him. Thank you for a great product.

Do you have a question about this RV Handrail?

What Had Rail will Replace Mine on My 2019 Lance TT model 1985?
Hello Mike, It looks like most of the hand rails used to be a 8 screw design, but is now a 4 screw design. I attached an image of the Lend-a-Hand Folding Grab Handle for RVs - Silver Rail with Black Foam Grip - Aluminum # AM-300 of the old design so you can see how it used to use 8 screws. The Lend-a-Hand Folding Grab Handle for RVs - Silver Rail with Black Foam Grip - Aluminum # AM-300 you were looking at would be a great option, or we also have it in white # AM-200. When I look at...

Recommended Handrail for Fleetwood Bounder Motorhome
The hand rail with the largest handle would be the Stromberg Carlson # AM-533 you'd looked at. The hand rail also features a padded handle on the lower end of the bar for a comfortable grip when you're climbing that first step. I have no way of knowing what hole spacing was used for the handrail on your motorhome, the manufacturers don't keep track of that information so there's no way to look it up. However, I've provided a photo showing how the mounting holes are spaced for you. Each...

Could Lend-a-Hand Folding Grab Handle Lock You in RV
Your concern about being potentially trapped inside your RV is certainly a valid one, and also a common one with the Stromberg Carlson Lend-a-Hand. While there isn't a way to easily stop it from pivoting across the front of the door, there truly is nothing to worry about here as it will not trap you inside your RV. If some mean individual did try and do that to you for some reason, all you would need to do is push your door open and the handle will flip back into place without issue. I...

Troubleshooting Stromberg Lend a Hand That is Loose in the Mounts
If the spring loaded handle of the Lend-a-Hand part # AM-200 is loose in the mounts there really isn't a way to tighten or fix that since it's a spring setup that's not replaceable. What you'd need to do is replace the entire handle.

Installing Lend-a-Hand Folding Grab Handle on Aliner Ranger 10 without Door Studs
The Lend-a-Hand Folding Grab Handle # AM-200 referenced in your question is a really nice solution for your Aliner Ranger 10 as long as there is enough mounting space above (or below) the line where the camper folds down. The rail features an overall height of 24 inches (outside to outside). As you mentioned since you will likely need to drill through the sidewall to install the unit you will need to obtain longer bolts and a backing plate. These components can just be found at a local...

How to Tighten Up a Loose Lend-a-Hand RV Handle # AM-200
If the black base to the Lend-a-Hand Folding Grab Handle for RVs # AM-200 is loose it sounds like you will need to tighten the two screws that attach the handrail to your trailer. The screws will be phillips head screws and with a phillips screwdriver you should have no problem tightening up the # AM-200. Check out the picture I attached to see where the screw holes are.

Installing Stromberg Carlson Lend-a-Hand Folding Grab Handle # AM-200
The Lend-a-Hand Folding Grab Handle # AM-200 referenced in your question does require a solid underlying surface to mount to on your camper. I really can't say what might be behind the exterior surface of your Aero Cub Hybrid Camper or how far the door frame extends. You can try using a stud finder around the area you are wanting to attach the brackets or even pull away an exterior panel to find a suitable spot. In some cases longer bolts or a mounting plate is needed when a door stud...

Replacement RV Handle for a Northstar Truck Camper
The most popular handle we offer that would as closely match the dimensions and mounting holes of your previous handle is the Lend-a-Hand Folding Grab Handle # AM-200. This is 24 inches tall and would do a great job making it easier to get in and out of your camper. Since you said the mounting blocks used to anchor your previous handle are only 4 inches tall I would not recommend a solid handle like the # AH-150 since it is much shorter at 18-1/2 inches.

How to Install the Lend-A-Hand with a Backing Plate
Installing the Lend-A-Hand # AM-200 using a backing plate would disperse the force across a wider area than if simply installed using bolts into the metal/fiberglass panels, so spreading that weight across a larger area is how you avoid damaging the wall. If you can't locate a door stud to install this into, your best bet would be to use a backing plate that was larger than the area that you're installing the handle to; this unit is 24" tall, so I'd recommend using a plate that was at least...

Preventing the Lend a Hand Folding Handle From Folding In and Blocking the Trailer Door
That is a pretty cruel prank someone could pull, and dangerous. You would need to either prevent the handle from being folded towards the door by blocking the path or secure the handle so it sticks out all the time. Since you would need to fold it in while traveling, the first method is the way to go. You would do something as simple as inserting a small screw or something else adjacent to where the handle pivots on the door side so it cannot be put in that location. I have incldued a...

What Size Screws are Used to Mount the Lend-a-Hand Folding Grab Handle for RVs # AM-200
I spoke with my contact at Stromberg Carlson and the Lend-a-Hand Folding Grab Handle for RVs, # AM-200, uses #14 x 2 inch screws. In order to mount the handrail you will want to drill 1/8 inch pilot holes making sure that you are drilling into a solid surface. They also recommend dabbing a small amount of caulk in the pilot holes before mounting the handle. This will help to keep water out.

Hey Emily! Yes, you will need to remove the covers and the vertical bolts and springs in order to put on a new grip to the Lend-a-Hand Folding Grab Handle # AM-200. I recommend using some soapy water instead of just water to get the grip on the hand rail.

Installation of any new handle on a trailer, such as the Stromberg Carlson Lend-a-Hand Folding Grab Handle # AM-200 installed on your Dad's 2012 Keystone Bullet Premier, requires that there be an underlying surface strong enough to secure the mounting hardware and take some of the weight of the person pulling on the handle.

Can the Lend-A-Hand RV Handle be Mounted on the Right Side of a Door
I checked with Stromberg-Carlson about the Lend-A-Hand handle # AM-200. It can be mounted on the right side of a door though it is meant more for the left side. If mounting on the right side of a door they state that "you may need to add support backing for mounting purposes." So worse case scenario the surface that it is mounted to may need additional support where the handle bases attach to the wall.

Clearance Between Surface and Handle of Lend-a-Hand Folding Grab Handle for RVs
I measured the brackets of the Lend-a-Hand Folding Grab Handle for RVs # AM-200 and found from the surface to the edge where the handle locks is approximately 1-5/16". Since you measured your awning support and it is 1-3/8" then you will be fine using a single 1/4" Shim for Stromberg Carlson Lend-a-Hand Folding Grab Handles for RVs # 5991-SM.

Where is the Best Place to Install Lend-a-Hand Folding Grab Handle # AM-200
The answer is wherever works best for you! Generally the Lend-a-Hand Folding Grab Handle # AM-200 is mounted on the exterior wall of an RV or trailer right next to the door opening. If you have a door that opens outward then you will want to place it on the side opposite of the door hinges. Otherwise you will not be able to use the handle when you open the door.
