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..

GREAT PRODUCT!!!
product as described and fast shipment. Thank You.
Excellent product. Fast service.
Exactly as advertised- sturdy
My husband has MS and this step sure helps him get into our truck safely.
Works great
Thank you for your request. The step is just fine. My poor dog looks at it and wants nothing to do with it. She just looks at it and says A little lift here. Go figure. I think the last one has seen better days. Bill
One of the buttons that locks the leg open broke with no way to fix it so we can’t use it
Just what I needed to get in and out of my RV. Light but strong.
Very sturdy step! Just what we needed!
Great looking step! I like the size. It’s very sure- footed going in and out of the motorhome.
Great Folding Step, very solid and steady. A bit pricey
Great product! Wish the legs were individually adjustable.
We needed this to allow my mother and mother in law to easily step up into the van. Very well made and light weight. Fast shipping with e-trailer who is great to deal with. Thanks Paula and etrailer.
Steps are well built and painted. They will survive the constant ins and outs of people entering and leaving the RV. I got this one for when we level and he front steps are up in the air.
Very Sturdy, just what we needed!

Step stool is great! We use it to get in and out of our cargo trailer and actually bought another one for the side door! Highly recommend!

Great Product! I'm actually using it as a platform for a video camera operator to stand on to help them get a little bit above the crowd, saved a lot of money going with this, and works great!

It’s great, I wish it was a little taller, but it’s great! What we actually use it for is a ‘platform’ for a camera operator for our video camera operator on Sunday morning Worship. We video record our sermons, we want the camera to be a little bit higher so we avoid the top of people’s heads, this allows us to do that and have the person not be uncomfortable by staring with their neck all the way back looking at the screen on the camera to frame what we need.We are somewhat limited on space, and storage space, so I don’t think there is any better solution out there for us.Thanks for checking up.
This wheel/tire combo is exactly what my vintage trailer rebuild needed!
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.
Wider and more sturdier than others
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.
Will be a great step coming out of our Sprinter Van
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)

Glad you like it, Danny! The yellow strips definitely makes it a "step" above the original. See what I did there. : P Hopefully it serves you very well and just let us know if there is anything we can help with!

Absolutely love the step, it is very sturdy and have had no issues with it. Even bought a second step to go at the back of trailer for easier access when the ramp is not down!
