  • Weight and Installation of TorkLift GlowStep RV Scissor Steps # TLA7505
  • The TorkLift GlowStep RV Scissor Steps # TLA7505 have a shipping weight of 30-lbs, so their actual weight will be right around 27-lbs.

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...

  • Mounting Bracket Dimensions for Brophy Camper Scissor Steps # AS24
  • I went out to our warehouse to take a few measurements on the mounting bracket for the Brophy Camper Scissor Steps # AS24.

  • Do Fold-Out Steps Need to be Removed When Mounting Brophy Scissor Steps
  • That is a good question, and you can leave your current fold-out steps up and in the folded position when installing the mounting bracket of the Brophy Scissor Steps. The reason is, the bracket will be installed just underneath the door so as long as when your steps are folded up there is no interference in that area the Brophy steps will be a great option. I added a photo for you a customer sent in which shows the bracket and steps installed so you can get an idea of how they mount. The...

  • Carrying Electric Bikes on My RV Bumper
  • While the Swagman 4 Bumper Mounted Bike Rack # S80600 has a total capacity of 120 lbs, it also has a per bike capacity of 30lbs. That means the individual mounting points for each bike is not rated for bikes heavier than 30lbs. Thankfully, bike rack technology has improved in recent years and we have more options for you! I recommend using a bumper hitch receiver like the Curt RV Bumper Hitch # E-100. This fits around 4" square bumpers and has a 350 tongue weight capacity. For a bike...

  • Replacement Steps for Seasonal 5th Wheel with Door 38 Off Ground
  • I have a solution for you, but as far as porch style trailer steps go, the Econo Porch Trailer Step with Handrail # EHS-103-R is going to be the tallest step we have available.

These steps can be used for entries 34-7/8" to 42-3/8" and the steps have a rise/drop of 7-1/2" which is going to keep you from having to step up too high/too far down at any point. They easily pull out from the trailer and the scissor design allows...

  • How is Height of Brophy Camper Scissor Steps Measured
  • The height that you see listed is to the bracket. If you check out the Brophy Camper Scissor Steps # AS24 (4 step model) you can see that when fully extended the height from the ground to the bracket is 39". This is one of our more popular options and I recommend going this route. If you would like to use a handrail for more stability you would want part # AHR4.
