How do I clean the grate step?
You can clean it with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

The dimensions are 70 cm wide, 24 cm deep, and 7 cm high (W x D x H).

Troubleshooting
Grate step feels unstable after installation.
Ensure all bolts securing the grate step to the stair frame are tightened securely. Check that the stair frame itself is stable and properly installed.
Surface is slippery when wet.
While designed for anti-slip, extremely wet or icy conditions can still pose a risk. Consider additional safety measures like salt application in icy conditions or using caution.
Debris gets caught in the mesh.
Regular cleaning with a stiff brush or hose can help dislodge trapped debris. If smaller debris is a consistent issue, this specific mesh size may not be ideal for that particular application.
