Video Transcript for Feature Review Pin Lock for TorkLift GlowStep Scissor Steps
Shane: Hey everyone, Shane here with etrailer.com. Today, we're going to be taking a look at the GlowStep pin lock. Under normal circumstances, your GlowSteps are just going to come with a safety pin so that while you're traveling your steps don't accidentally come pulling out. The lock is a Pin Lock, and what it's going to do is when you have your camper in storage or something like that, you can lock your steps and that'll keep anybody else from coming up folding them out, or anything else.It is also going to come with a nice dust cap, and it's going to help cover your lock to help protect it, keep any dirt debris or anything like that from getting inside. This can be installed on either side depending on which side you have your pin located. It's also going to come with two keys.
Simply slide the pin through, lock it into place, install your dust cover, and then your steps are secured.The lock itself is going to be a steel construction, it's going to have a nice grip on it so if your hands are wet, you're maybe trying to unlock your steps when it's raining, that makes it easy to grab onto it so you can turn the key. My overall thoughts on this lock, I think it's a nice, durable lock. As small as the pin pinhole is when we're comparing it to some other types of locks that we can get to fit in there. They're going to be pretty small, and they're probably going to be pretty easily breakable or pretty easy to break or get off. With this having a nice thick body, it's going to give you a little bit more security.
It's really going to deter someone from coming up and trying to steal your nice new steps. That's going to do it for a look at Torklift Pin Lock for Torklift GlowStep..

The lock seems to be well made the only issue is the pin diameter of the lock is slightly smaller than the original pin and allows for some play when opening and closing the stairs. All and all it will do its intended purpose, keep your steps on the camper.
The customer service from Lauren from order to receiving the locks was outstanding!!!

At first wasn’t sure how the 4 steps would work when Camper was off the truck. Called Torqlifts support line and Todd explained it would be like a ladder. Works excellent as a ladder off the truck and pulled completely out as steps while on the truck. Very satisfied with our purchase quality you’d expect built in the USA.

Better that the thin cotter pins that these steps came with, they broke after a couple of uses. So, I ordered the Pin locks for the torkLift GlowSteps to give it a more robust stability, these should have come with rubber washers but they did not so I had to go to Home Depot and find something that would fit and fill in the gaps because these were a bit too long.

Good quality. To soon to know the quality of the rubber caps but the lock itself is great. I purchased two. They are nearly identical to the set of 4 I bought for my Happy Jacks so now I have a backup incase I lose one.

I've enjoyed having this lock for our RV's Torklift Glowsteps. It's pricey, but when the lock is in place, no one can extend the expensive steps, and the steps must be extended to install or remove them.

We received these and were disappointed to find out the key for torklift locks is universal. The same key we were sent for these locks fits our torklift fastgun tie down locks.
Advertised as a way to ensure no one takes them off your camper or RV… anyone who has a torklift key can remove them!

I spoke with Torklift today and found that the key numbers are not universal however there are a limited number of keys so it is possible you coincidentally have locks that use the same key number. I can look into it further for you; I would just need the key numbers off the keys for both locks.

Easy installation, good quality product, stable stairs when deployed.
Like the abilty to pull the 2 pins and easily remove the assembly from the bracket and lock it to the bracket with the same pin lock as the Fastgun bed camper tiedowns. Included all stainless steel bracket mounting hardware for mounting to metal bumper or on wood. very nice product overall.

I haven't installed them yet, but the ForkLift Glowstep Revolution step assembly looks great. It arrived from etrailer 3 days after I ordered it. I'm looking forward to installing the steps on our Grand Design Reflection 303FPS so getting in and out will be more secure for my wife who just had surgery for a new hip. The unit feels and looks substantial and I'm sure it will be a great addition to our 5th wheel.

Product works although fit is somewhat sloppy. Not sure of it's long term use (will the lock stop working?), but time will tell. For now it works, but would probably look for alternatives if needed in the future.

- Do the TorkLift GlowStep Camper Scissor Steps Have to be Removed for Travel?Hey Jacqueline, thanks for reaching out! The TorkLift GlowStep Camper Scissor Steps # TLA7804 can be left on permanently, but they also have some simple pins that keep them in place in case you ever wanted to take them off and store them elsewhere or clean them. Since you do plan on leaving them on full-time I recommend checking out the Pin Lock # TLA7509 so you can have some peace of mind that they won't grow a pair of legs and walk off by themselves. What camper are we installing these on?
view full answer... - Solution for Needing Replacement FastGun Locking Pin # TLA7509Hey Monty, yeah the etrailer dust cover part # e98923 would be your best option to replace the lock core cap of the Torklift lock part # TLA7509. It might not be an exact fit so much but it will work.

Find the mounting spot for the bracket on your vehicle and measure from that point. The # TLA7835 part number is for height of 38-1/2" - 50". We also have available the TorkLift GlowGuide Handrail, # TLA7621, note linked product video. And the Pin Lock for TorkLift GlowStep Scissor Steps, # TLA7509. This replaces one of the pins that holds the scissor steps to the mounting...

- Option For Replacement Pins For TorkLift GlowStep TLA7836 Hey Glenn, we do have a potential option for a replacement pin. The pins that come with the TorkLift GlowStep # TLA7836 are not available individually, so I am afraid we cannot offer a direct replacement. What we do have is the Pin Lock for TorkLift GlowStep Scissor Steps # TLA7509, which can be used to replace the pins that hold the step to the bracket (see picture below). The # LP14 that you were looking at appears to be the right size pin. The problem is there is no clip on the other...
view full answer... - Weight of TorkLift GlowStep Revolution Scissor Steps TLA8004The TorkLift GlowStep Revolution Scissor Steps with Landing Gear # TLA8004 weighs 55 lbs. These particular steps fit an entry height of 32-1/2" to 44" and the steps themselves are 22" wide x 8" deep to ensure plenty of footing. They can even be locked with the Pin Lock for TorkLift GlowStep Scissor Steps # TLA7509 and if you'd like, for added stability when traversing the steps you can add a handrail, the TorkLift GlowGuide Handrail # TLA7621. I have added a link below to a video review...
view full answer... - Can the GlowStep Camper Scissor Steps # TLA7805 be Used on an Eagle Cap 1200 Truck Bed CamperYes, since the mounting bracket for the TorkLift GlowStep Camper Scissor Steps # TLA7805 can be mounted under your door this will reduce the distance for that last step into your camper. I went out to the warehouse and found that the mounting bracket for the steps measures 1" tall and 20" long. Just be sure that this can fit under your door and that there is a solid place for the screws to install into for a secure connection (see attached installation instructions). Please note that...

- Recommended Steps for Truck Bed Slide-in Camper with Bolts on Bottom of ThresholdThe bolts you show will work with the TorkLift GlowStep Camper Scissor Steps - 2 Steps - Aluminum - 20" Wide - 375 lbs # TLA7802. The attachment bracket will work for this application. If you want to replace the pins with locks, you can use Pin Lock for TorkLift GlowStep Scissor Steps # TLA7509 to deter theft. The Brophy Camper Scissor Steps # SS02 are similar, but the mounting bracket would require you to do a custom 90 degree plate like you referenced since it doesn't have the pin...

- Replacement Bolt And Cotter Pin For A TorkLift GlowStep Camper Scissor StepsWe don't currently carry the bolt and cotter pins that fit the TorkLift GlowStep Camper Scissor Steps - 5 Steps - Aluminum - 20" Wide - 325lbs # TLA7805 but we do carry the pin lock # TLA7509 that you could put in its place and add some security to your steps so no one can take off with them.

These steps give you adjustable feet for leveling. The steps give you a simple installation and are just 30 lbs. There is also an optional handrail # TLA7621 for increased safety. I also recommend the pin lock # TLA7509 to secure your investment. If you have questions or would like a different recommendation, let me know. This...

- Recommended Scissor Steps for Truck CamperThe TorkLift GlowStep Stow N' Go Scissor Steps w/ Landing Gear # TLA7844 is an excellent option for your camper. It will give you 4 steps up to your bumper and have a mounting bracket height of 35-3/8". This will enable you to mount it directly to the rear face of your bumper once your current TorkLift step is removed. These steps include landing gear which make them more solid and able to accommodate uneven terrain. The Glow tape makes the steps easy to see at night while the built-in...

- Alternative for Pin Lock for TorkLift GlowStep Scissor Steps The etrailer Trailer Coupler Latch Lock part # e98889 is very similar to the Pin Lock for TorkLift GlowStep Scissor Steps part # TLA7509 so you should be able to swap the two without issue. The etrailer lock is threaded unlike the TorkLift so there will be no accidental unlocking.
view full answer... - Will Torklift RV GlowSteps TLA7834 Fit 2017 Forest River Flagstaff Classic 832BHDSTo determine if you are able to replace your 3-step unit with a 4-step unit like # TLA7834, you will need to take a few measurements as RV steps are not custom to the year, make and model of a specific RV. Measure from the ground to the top of the threshold on your RV to determine how much ground clearance you have. The Torklift Steps require ground clearance between 31 and 42 inches. The mounting bracket base dimensions for the Torklift GlowSteps are 21-1/2" wide x 14-1/2" tall x 8-1/2"...

- Availability of Bracket for Torklift GlowSteps To Allow Travel on the Rear of CamperWe do have the TorkLift GlowStep Stow N' Go Mounting Bracket for Truck Bed Campers - Black # TLA7810 or White # TLA7820. I also recommend the Pin Lock for TorkLift GlowStep Scissor Steps # TLA7509 to secure your steps since you are desiring to keep them connected.
view full answer... - Are TorkLift GlowStep Scissor Step Locks Keyed The Same As Their Camper Tie-Down Pin Locks The Pin Lock for TorkLift GlowStep Scissor Steps # TLA7509 is keyed differently than the Pin Locks for TorkLift FastGun and Derringer Turnbuckle Handles # TLS9500 that you referenced. They are the same type of key but are just not keyed alike unfortunately. TorkLift has 14 different key codes that they use so the likelihood of someone else having the same key is a lot smaller than that of compartment door handle keys.
view full answer... - Dimensions for TorkLift GlowStep Scissor Steps and Ability to Utilize Same BracketThe TorkLift GlowStep Camper Scissor Steps - 2 Steps - Aluminum - 20" Wide - 375 lbs # TLA7802 uses a mounting bracket that is 21-1/2" wide x 8-9-/16" deep. It is intended for an entry height of between 16 and 23 inches. This step weighs 16 lbs. The 3 step # TLA7803 will use the same bracket so they are interchangeable. It is designed for entry heights between 23-1/2 and 30-1/2 inches. This step weighs 22 lbs. You may want to consider the Pin Lock for TorkLift GlowStep Scissor Steps...
view full answer... - Weight and Installation of TorkLift GlowStep RV Scissor Steps # TLA7505The TorkLift GlowStep RV Scissor Steps # TLA7505 have a shipping weight of 30-lbs, so their actual weight will be right around 27-lbs. When extended the step's mounting bracket will be 42-inches above ground so this should work well with your mounting point that is 38-inches from the ground. When the steps are collapsed in for travel they will extend down from the mounting surface approximately 12 to 13-inches. The steps themselves are 20-inches wide, not including the scissor brackets...
view full answer... - TorkLift Steps Availability with Hand Rail to Replace Metal 4-Step StairsFrom what you are describing it sounds like the TorkLift GlowStep Stow N' Go Scissor Steps w/ Landing Gear # TLA7836 may be the best option. It comes with 6 steps that have a rise/drop of 7-1/2 inches per step, has a weight capacity of 300 lbs, and comes with a bracket to install on the truck. The mounting bracket height is 50-3/8 inches which you can use for a comparison. There are some accessories that are available with the TorkLift GlowSteps. Among these are the TorkLift GlowGuide...
view full answer... - Availability of Replacement Lock for Torklift FastGun TurnbucklesFor a single replacement pin lock for the Torklift Fastguns we have the part # TL11001 which would be what you would need. The # TLA7509 doesn't have a wide enough usable span to work with the FastGuns # TLS9522-2-LK.
view full answer... - Weight of TorkLift GlowStep 4 Step Scissor Steps for Truck CamperThe TorkLift GlowStep Stow N' Go Scissor Steps w/ Landing Gear - 4 Steps - 375 lbs - Black Bracket # TLA7834 weighs 35 lbs at shipping. You'll have a couple lbs of packing materials so you will be adding around 32-33 lbs to your camper. For security, I recommend adding the Pin Lock for TorkLift GlowStep Scissor Steps # TLA7509. This is designed to give you the option to easily remove, but also deter theft when installed.

These scissor steps are nearly identical with the part that you referenced, part # TLA8104, except they are 2 inches wider. The GlowStep scissor steps have a few different add-ons as well. You can use the Pin Lock # TLA7509 to secure the GlowSteps to your camper, the Handrail # TLA7621 which makes climbing the stairs easier, and the DirtDestroyer # TLA7603 so that you and your...

For stowable leveling steps that will work for your application, you may want to consider the TorkLift GlowStep Stow N' Go Scissor Steps w/ Landing Gear - 3 Steps - 350 lbs - Black Bracket # TLA7833. This step has an optional hand rail # TLA7621 and also has a lock option to secure your steps # TLA7509.

The steps do come with the hardware needed to attach the steps. These steps have a really nice feature in the glow tape that glows for 10 hours with only 5 minutes of exposure. A couple of accessories to consider with these steps are the pin lock # TLA7509 and the handrail # TLA7621...
