FAQs

What is the maximum weight capacity of this step?

The step has a robust weight capacity of 800kg.

Can this step be used in wet conditions?

Yes, the GRP surface is designed to be slip-resistant and self-draining, making it suitable for indoor and outdoor use, including in wet conditions.

How do I adjust the height of the step?

The height is adjusted by attaching and adjusting the provided legs. The step can be used without legs for a height of 80mm, or with the adjustable legs for heights between 105mm and 185mm.

Is assembly required?

Yes, the legs need to be attached and adjusted to achieve the desired height. This is a straightforward process.

What materials is the step made from?

The step features an anti-rust zinc-coated alloy frame and a glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) surface.

Can this step be permanently fixed in place?

The higher legs come with pre-drilled fixing points, allowing you to secure the step to the ground if permanent placement is desired for maximum stability.

What are the dimensions of the step platform?

The platform measures 1000mm x 1000mm, providing an extra-large surface area.

Troubleshooting

Step wobbles or feels unstable.

Ensure all legs are fully and securely attached. If using at higher settings, utilize the pre-drilled fixing points to secure the step to the ground. Check that the ground surface is level.

Height adjustment is difficult.

Ensure the legs are clean and free from debris. If they are stiff, try applying a small amount of lubricant (e.g., silicone spray) to the adjustment mechanism. Do not force the adjustment.

Surface feels slippery after rain or cleaning.

The GRP surface is self-draining, but ensure no standing water or cleaning residue remains. Wipe dry if necessary. Avoid using oily cleaning products.

Legs do not fit securely.

Verify you are using the correct set of legs for the desired height range. Check for any damage to the leg attachment points or the legs themselves. Contact customer support if damage is found.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Unpack all components.
  2. For use at 80mm height, the step can be used without legs.
  3. To achieve heights between 105mm and 185mm, attach the provided legs.
  4. For heights between 105mm and 120mm, use the self-levelling legs and adjust them to the desired height.
  5. For the maximum height of 185mm, attach the additional set of support legs, adjusting them to the required level.
  6. The higher legs have pre-drilled fixing points; for maximum stability at higher settings, especially on flat ground, it is recommended to secure the step to the surface using appropriate fixings (not supplied).

Compatibility:

  • Designed for use on solid, level surfaces.
  • Suitable for bridging gaps to doorways or providing access to elevated areas.
  • Compatible with most standard walkers and rollators due to its large platform size.

Care:

  • Ensure legs are securely attached before each use.
