Hey Cody.
As long as you’re mounting to a solid support part of the frame, you’ll be good to install the MORryde Safe-T-Rail # MR54BR on your camper without any issues. Your RV should have a frame around the door to support the door as well as the existing hand rail.
If there isn’t a support beam there, then you could run into some stability concerns. But from what you described, it sounds like you do have the proper support to mount it safely.
What camper do you have that you need the hand rail for?

Most people remove the grab handle that came from the manufacturer. In that case there will certainly be support for the new Safe T Rail

As some have already pointed out, the Safe-T-Rail mounts in the same location as the grab bar was attached and has a solid mount. If you do extend down into a thin metal trim, you can place a metal plate behind for a little additional support. The one I installed, is much more stable than the grab bar that came with my camper and provides support all the way down the stairs.

If you’re mounting the Mor ride rail next to your door , you should have plenty of support. We love ours so much my support.
