The Lippert SolidStep Manual Fold-Down Steps # LC791572 referenced in your question is a great manually operated assembly that requires very little effort to fold down and back up for travel. After a good rain, I do recommend wiping the steps down before folding them into the camper, as it's possible that some water could be brought inside. This is the case with any fold-up style steps like these. The slight decline on the step surface will prevent a lot of water from pooling up and there isn't really any other area on the assembly where excess water could be hidden or collected after a storm.
As for using the steps during wet weather, the step surfaces do feature an anti-slip design with textured surfaces and rubber strips to provide excellent traction.
This assembly is designed for RV doorways that are 30 inches wide and the distance between each step is 8 inches.
