Recommended Steps For 24-1/4 Door Frame And 31 Entry Height

Question:

I have a 24 1/4inch door opening. Facing the door from the outside, the left side where the strut needs to mount - How much room do I need from the lip of the door to the left? I only have about 2 3/4inch on that side. My rise to the threshold is 31 Is there a set of steps that will work for me?

I spoke with the manufacturer, MORryde, and their tech stated that you'll need 4" of clearance for the strut assist. Due to the cabinet you'll have to go with steps that do not have the strut assist like the MORryde StepAbove RV Steps for 23-3/4" to 26-1/4" Wide Doorways - 3 Steps Item # MR98RR. The strut assists are nice but these steps really are not hard to lift or lower down due to the lightweight construction so you'll be fine without them.
