Safe and Reliable
Easily and safely get to the tough-to-reach places in your garage or kitchen with this folding step. You can even use it to bridge the gap between the ground and your RV's step. The legs are angled beyond the platform of the step to increase stability. The leg tips are made of rubber to keep the step from moving beneath you, and they are angled 30 degrees to ensure full contact with the ground. Together, these unique features make up the anti-tip design, which ensures that the step remains stable and won't wobble or tip, even if you stand on the very edge of the platform. Another safety feature is the non-slip strips on the step platform, which provide traction even in wet weather.
Small and Lightweight
While the Safety Step is light enough that almost anybody can carry it, it is sturdy enough to support up to 1,000 lbs, making it perfect for nearly everyone and every job. Its folding design ensures that it can be stowed away practically anywhere, making it simple to transport and easy to hide.

Hi, everyone. It's Evangeline here at Etrailer and today we are looking at our Safety Step folding platform step here at Etrailer. So, this is a folding step that will provide you a little extra height if you need to reach hard-to-reach cabinets or drawers or dressers. Or, let's say you're tryin' to change a lightbulb in your RV. This is a good chance to use a step like this since it folds up and it's nice and compact, and it's easy to take out for when you need to use it. The thing about these steps is that many of our customers also use this step for an extra leg up whenever theyre entering or exiting their RV or camper since it gives them a little extra height.
One of the best things about this step is that it is multipurpose. So, let's say you're not using your RV. You're at home. You can still use this step to reach things in your garage, in your kitchen. Hard-to-reach areas in, let's say, your bedroom or your bathroom.
You can also, when you're ready to go back out onto the road, throw this into your RV so any situation you need that little extra height, you can use this. I'm on the short side, which means I use a lot of steps, benches, stools, ladders, just to give myself that little extra reach for hard-to-reach places. So, what I notice is for those different stools, if I step on the edge, I get a little wobble and it's kinda scary. That's not gonna happen with this stool. So, no matter where you step on it, it has that weight distribution which means you're not gonna get that faltering or that wobbling experience.
And when you're ready to store this, that's a simple process. You just flip it over, and then you fold in those legs. So, press that button and then fold them in. Folding in the longer legs creates a shorter leg so you can also use this in the folded-up position and it creates a three inch tall mat. But this also creates an easy-to-store step stool.
At 14.5 inches wide, that makes this the perfect width to just sneak into or slide into small cabinets underneath your sofas, underneath your sinks, or underneath your beds. This also comes in different color options depending on, let's say, you want it to match your RV or your personal preference for colors. So what I have here is aluminum, or gray. Or you can also get it in pink or even yellow. This is useful both inside and outside. So, let's say you need to reach your windows, either to clean it off or to open it or if you need to reach up towards your awning just to bring that down, this gives you that extra height to reach those hard-to-reach places. Our RV floor was nice and even but how does it work on the uneven ground of the outside So, here we have our pavement and we can see how this is torn up in some areas. But even though one end is lower than the other, you still have that stability and that weight distribution. On top you have these non-slip strips. So these feel very gritty and rough to the touch. That means they're gonna be great for adding that grip and that traction to shoes. But if you are using this with your bare feet, just be mindful of those strips. They do feel kinda rough. Underneath your step, you have these double-locking legs. So, that means you have these tabs holding those legs in place in the outward position. And at the end of the feet you have these rubber tips. So, these are designed with grooves to help with that traction on the ground but are also shaped to give that weight distribution. So for dimensions, you have a stool here that is 19 inches long by about 15 inches. With it standing up like this, this stands at 8 inches tall, so that's gonna be from the top of the ground to the top of the stool. Hold it up like this, this is three inches tall. Now, you are gonna be supported by the corners of the stool, so just keep that in mind because you're not gonna have that rubber grip on the bottom. While this stool is only eight pounds heavy, this has a weight capacity of 1,000 pounds. So that means it's great for everyone and every job. If you're using this to lift heavy things from one area to another, you're gonna have a whole 1,000 pound capacity to work for you. What gives it that weight capacity as well as that weight distribution capability are the legs. So the way the legs are designed is they do have that rubber tip on the end, but they are also sitting at a 30 degree angle on each side. My final thoughts about the Safety Step folding step is I really like how lightweight it is but how you can still get an amazing weight capacity of 1,000 pounds. Now, this does depend on your situation. If the measurements or the length and width are good for you, some cabinets are too small to carry this, some are perfectly fine. So with 19 by about 15 inches in terms of measurements. I hope that helps out with figuring out how portable this is for you and your situation. I personally really like that weight distribution effect it has, that non-slip anti-wobble effect I think is awesome. And that was a look here at our Safety Step folding platform step here at Etrailer. My name is Evangeline and I hope you enjoy the journey..
Ratings & Reviews
Owned and used these steps for more than a year. These steps are amazing (tough, safe, & nice looking). They never topple over when used because of the dynamic design of the legs ( angled slightly outwards). The rough top surface of the step removes dry dirt from bottom of your shoes which then drops through slotted surface to the ground. No more tracked in dirt. Talk about industrial strength, I ran over them with my trailer and only bent one leg & part of top step and was able to use a vice and small hammer in my shop to hammer back into shape. The leg is sturdy again and I can still retract it when necessary. THIS IS ONE TOUGH PRODUCT AND A GREAT VALUE FOR THE PRICE. I've had them outdoors in the elements since I bought them & NO RUST!!
Our trailer sits high for excellent ground clearance and we have two exit doors. The last step from the trailer is about 12" from the ground so we needed a stable platform to be the last step to the ground. This is a platform step. It is 24" by 16", plenty of room to fit under the last step of the trailer and provided a lot of room to place your foot for the last step before the ground. You don't have to worry about missing the step because your carrying thing out of the trailer. The first folding platform worked so well and was very stable we purchased a second one.
The aluminum Safety Step Folding Platform has been ideal for our 2001 Access Cab Toyota Tundra pickup. It is a 24 inch step up to get into the truck, and it was no longer possible for my spouse to get into the vehicle. The platform solved our problem perfectly. It is just the right height to allow easy entry into the truck. The platform is extremely steady no matter where you step onto it and has a non-slip surface and legs. It is very convenient to store the unit behind the passenger seat and retrieve it for use.
Well built step necessary for unlevel parking situations. Very few Rv camps have ideal level pads
This step is going to last a lifetime, love it.
Wider and more sturdier than others
This is exactly what we need. This will be used by our volunteer firefighters for duties related to vehicle extraction and attic access through small closets. Its sturdy and lightweight.
Well this is exactly what I needed, it is so well built and the powder coat finish is....PERFECT! I bought this as a small booster step for getting into my light aircraft, I only needed a 6" boost to get over the doors edge and I was at a loss with the light aircraft parts suppliers who only had larger steps, then I found etrailer and you had a full line of sizes..... this small one is just right and the color will make it visible so it will never be FOD on the ramp... it is just plain NICE and well built ! .... I know yellow is bright but an ORANGE one would be great too.
GREAT SERVICE
A very sturdy step,though I would have liked the legs to be foldable for easy storage (I've seen this in 9" steps). I use it to load a crew boat onto my roof rack, works perfectly.
Customer service has been outstanding!
Great quality and very stable.
This was a perfect fit for what we needed, not too big and not too small. It is well-made and very sturdy. Shipping to Alaska was surprisingly cheap and quick.
After using plastic step stools that often slide when you step down on them, I feel much safer using my new safety step.
This step stool is outstanding! Sturdy and stable... but more importantly its landing platform is larger than most stools. Used as an additional outside step when required. My previous step had a much smaller landing platform which made it perilous to carry items out of the trailer on a sloped campsite. This step stool makes it much safer and provides a solid landing area with much less chance of tipping or missing the step when carrying items into or out of the trailer. Highly recommended.
Safety step is well made with useful features....like the easy fold-away press button lock/secure legs, innate stability, and non-slip spacious top. Also, quite sturdy for the light weight and stores easily. Got it specifically for loading dirt bikes....a savior...and a nice stool for just sitting after a long day of riding. It has been a pleasure to write a review....fyi, your video was very helpful in my purchase. Thank You
Will be a great step coming out of our Sprinter Van
Very sturdy. Dirt falls through back onto the ground. Good non slip surface.
Perfect step for my Sprinter Van, stable and well built!
Extremely well made step with large pla tform.
Nice and solid, and the anti slip material is perfect. Great size for safe entrance and exit from my camper van!
I ordered both the SASXL-08C-G & SASXLA-09C-G & Stromberg Carlson S-150 Safety Steps for use on my 5' X 8' Custom Cargo Trailer. I did side by side comparisons on each of these 3 steps, considering weight, longevity, storage, and most importantly stability. This Model SASXL-08C-G Step WON OVER above these others! Well made, light-weight, easy handling, Very stable when you properly spread the legs out. Very Happy with this model Safety Step. You get what you pay for! I will add some factory looking bright yellow strips to my steps, see photos. (Note: Some of my photos would not upload)
i like it, it is sturdy and holds up
I am thrilled with the PINK step stool. It is perfect for my new 22 ft. motor home. When I step out the door I have great confidence that it is stable and I will have a good landing. I was looking for one 7 inches tall and this was the only one I found. I have already told people about etrailer.com. Thanks for making this old woman happy. GO etrailer.com. I am sure all your products are great.
