Will Brophy Camper Scissor Steps Work for You?
Scissor steps are typically installed on truck campers, but can be attached to your truck's tailgate using a special mounting bracket (TSSB - sold separately). After the initial installation, they're easy to attach when needed and detach for compact storage. To ensure you choose the correct size for your application, there are a few measurements you will need to take.
The Brophy scissor steps have a single mounting bracket that attaches to either the camper wall or the truck bumper beneath the doorway. To decide which size you'll need, locate the space available for the mounting bracket on your application that lines up with the doorframe, and measure the width and height. You will need a mounting space at least 18-1/4" wide and 1" tall.
If it turns out you have more space beneath your doorway, there are larger step assemblies available with 24" wide brackets. A full list of the available steps is below.
Once you have an approximation of where the mounting bracket will go and what size mounting bracket you need, the spot you chose will be used as the "mounting point" to determine how many steps you will need.
How Many Steps Do You Need?
To decide on how many steps you'll need, measure from the "mounting point" to the ground. This is called the entry height. The entry height should roughly match the height of the steps when they're fully extended, and it will also tell you how many steps you need.
The chart below displays entry height measurement ranges in the first column. If you determined you need an 18-1/4" mounting bracket, the step part numbers with that width are in the second column. If you determined you need a 24" mounting bracket width, the step part numbers with that width are in the third column. Choose the bracket size that is closest to your measurements without going over.

6-1/4" Deep x 17" wide aluminum camper steps expand from 24" to 30" tall and fold up for storage. Steps self-adjust for stability on any terrain. Non-slip tread ensures solid footing. Mounting bracket and hardware included.These steps worked out great for my application. I am always pulling some type of trailer behind our camper so entering the camper is difficult. I made a platform that goes into a customized receiver hitch. These steps were the perfect size to make everything work. Much safer then step stolls.
Decent steps while camper is on the truck. There made for a certain height so when lowering the camper down they don’t work.
Seems most attachments for campers are made for the typical 4” tube bumper. Ours has the step style which the hook/bar that attaches the steps to the camper don’t fit. We added/welded a piece on each side so it would fit properly when loaded on the truck.
I want to thank etrailer customer service for their help when our steps was lost. I contacted them after it was (said) delivered they did an investigation and replaced them in a week. Thanks
We are using these when the water is low to get to our dock. Very nice as they can go in and out easily with the bracket. Sturdy, easy to store, scissor mechanism works well.
it seems that the top step does not hole up like the other two.
My husband built a truck camper, lighter than commercial, to serve our back road adventures. He considered several options for steps and came upon your scissor steps! He ordered, they arrived in just a few days and was pleased with the ease of attaching, folding and sturdiness of the steps. Thank you for a great product.
I had a three step foldable ladder I was using to get in/ out of my trick camper. Getting in was easy but getting out was very unstable. These foldable steps make a great improvement! Install wasn't hard and stowing them away in my truck is great as they take up very little space!
I got the three step last year and I haven’t used it because it’s not big enough. I really need to turn in the three step for a four step if that’s possible. I will pay the difference. Please get a hold of me.

I still have the steps I have not used the steps. I have three steps. I needed four steps. I tried to return it and pay the difference for a four step. They wouldn’t let me do that either. Not happy with the company they should’ve worked with me and they didn’t.
Extremely satisfied with service from retailer. Have attached step bracket to truck body. Well made set of steps. Very pleased with outcome of attachment to my 2007 Ram. Did smooth some rough areas of step with file. Again very satisfied with steps and strainer service.
I ordered these steps for our travel trailer. They shipped the same day I ordered them and arrived on time. Super easy to install. They are VERY sturdy and the distance between the steps is perfect. It was always a stretch to use the steps that came with the trailer and a bit clanky. These are a great replacement.
Stairs installed see attachment. Only have one suggestion so additional customers don't require a additional spacer. My camper is a 2005 and I had to add a 1/4 thick spacer between the camper shell and the stair upper bracket because of the entry door lower sill but besides that everything worked out great. Thanks
We have used the heck out of ours for a year now. Constantly up and down with somewhat heavy loads ours has been a lifesaver for us. It's just as sturdy as the day we got it. We have not spent one minute doing any maintenance or cleaning on it. With the quality of craftsmanship I would expect to pay a lot more. Definitely a great buy.
I purchased this product for other than it’s intended use and it worked out perfectly. A breath of fresh air to receive a top quality, American made product. Thank you for the craftsmanship and quality of materials. After seeing the quality of this product and finding how well it suits me need, I only wish I would have ordered the wider set. Hat’s off to etrailer!! Buy American and from this company, you will not be disappointed!!
The 3 step aluminum stairs work perfect.
The 2 step was too short for my need.
It works fine! just what we needed, went on very easy, had to notch the bottom of door to clear, and that's OK. we have not went camping yet. so the photos are at home. hope this helps, If not let me know!! We want to out camping anyway..
Steps are very sturdy, easy to attach to the camper.The bright finish is nice on the steps but when the sun is directly overhead there is a bright glare from the steps. Matt finish might be better.
High quality materials. Supports your weight without bending. A little stiff to unfold but does slightly loosen over time, but not to the point of slop.
Works just like we needed ..
GREAT product, fair price.
Shipped fast...
THANK YOU
Everything went extremely well. Seller contact info, shipping details, etc... Very satisfied with etrailer.com. Thanks again, Don

Everything is fine, camper steps are great. extremely glad I found your company to purchase them. Thanks,
Couldnt ask for a better purchase in any way. Extremely high quality steps, and shipped faster then I expected. Installation on my truck camper took less then 5 minutes. Would highly recommend not only the steps, but etrailer.com!
Thanks again,

Product works well for me, it fit on my existing hardware, it accommodates various trailer angles and elevations when connected to the flatbed trailer for access to my truck camper (it is removed when driving).
Works Great at a great price
Stairs fit my application just right to land from the camper to a platform on the trailer ... this is my second one, lost the first one in a moment of carelessness. It's well made and after a year of use, camping every week in the summer, it's not at all loose.
Etrailer seems to have everything related to trailers
Aluminum steps have been a great addition to my truck camper. Light weight to handle yet sturdy and easy to mount on camper.
This is a knee saver. We attached it to our Mobile Tropical Shaved Ice Truck and it makes it so much easier to get in and out the rear door. The quality, construction and lightweight makes this the idea steps for any RV, Mobile Truck or Camper. The ease of attaching, and detaching and folding is a breeze. Highly recommend.
Very nice and lightweight steps.

I would love to accommodate you on an exchange r return, it would be too far past our 60 day return policy. We do have the 4 step available as part # AS04.
