Telesteps Step Stool

Need an extra boost to reach the roof vent inside your RV or load a kayak on top of your SUV? This step stool lets you access those hard-to-reach areas in and around your RV or vehicle, making it easier to change out lightbulbs, grab gear from higher-up cabinets in the kitchen, and load a cargo box onto the top of your vehicle. This aluminum step stool is sturdy enough to support your weight, yet lightweight enough that you're able to carry it around with you on the campsite.


To use the stool, simply pull the two halves out until the stepping area is flat. When you're finished using the stool, carefully push upward on the hinges, and take care not to pinch your fingers. Then fold the stool into a compact size that you can easily store in any tight nook or compartment on your RV to help save space.

by:

This little stool is the best. It's so strong that it withstood being run over by my full size cargo van! Unfortunately it didn't fair as well the second time I ran it over with my van. I'm now on my second telesteps folding stool and hoping to avoid putting this one through the same rigorous testing as the first.



by:

It is very sturdy and stable. Perfect for reaching into the back of my truck or for guests to get into the back seat.



by:

Arrived sooner than expected and immediately put to good use. Very light and just the right height for adjusting my kayak on my RAVs roof.



by:

This is very sturdy and easy to fold up.



by:

Nice, simple stool. I've broken 3 plastic folding stools over the years and wanted something that would hold up. This little guy seems to be the ticket.

  • Using Kayak Carrier Along With Thule Canyopn Rooftop cargo Basket TH859XT
    Thule does not offer any kayak carrier accessory that can be fitted to their Canyon rooftop cargo basket # TH859XT. I called my most well-seasoned Thule contact and she confirmed no such product is on the drawing board for the future. In truth, even if such an item was available, it might not be your best option. Since kayak weights vary from the low 30s for smaller sit-on types up to the 140s for well-equipped fishing kayaks the vehicle roof capacity can come into play. The Canyon basket...

  • Thule Motion XT & Sonic XL Cargo Box Fits on 2007 Subaru Outback & 2013 Subaru Crosstrek
    It is easy to find out if the Thule Motion XT # TH629706 rooftop cargo box will fit your vehicles' factory bars and also allow your rear hatches to open without any interference. First, let's talk about bar fit. Both carriers have mounting hardware that will fit on factory crossbars up to 3-1/2-inches wide x 1-11/16-inches tall. Just measure your bars to confirm they are compatible with the mounting hardware. Second, we will consider the bar spread on each car. Both boxes work on crossbars...

  • Wheel Step That Works With 2017 Ram 3500
    The Powerbuilt Adjustable Tire Step # ALL647596 may be an option as it is a universal mount which is going to fit any tire that is 13" wide or less. It is 21-1/2" long and has a weight capacity of 300 lbs. I also recommend taking a look at the Folding Wheel Step, # PT68ZR which is a universal mount that hangs on your tire and also fits any tire up to 13 inches wide. To determine if you can use these, you need to measure the width of your 28-inch diameter tires. If those don't work,...

  • Recommended Winch for Lifting Platform in Garage
    While you certainly could use a worm gear winch such as # DL11001, I recommend using the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL10976, which is designed for what you are trying to do. This winch can be mounted to your ceiling and you can use Hex Shaft # DL406102 which will allow a drill to crank it, and you'll also want Hand Winch Cable with Safety Hook # DL24045. This winch has a capacity of 2,000 lbs which will be more than enough for your 300 lbs of gear.

  • Is There A Longer Handle Available For A Curt A16 Fifth Wheel Hitch
    Curt currently only offers a standard size replacement handle with part # C58UR for the Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16120. My father has the same issue with his Silverado and B&W Companion and just keeps a folding 2-step ladder in the bed to pull the handle as well as to help him get in and out of the bed to get firewood out. I recommend picking up a really compact ladder like the Telesteps Folding Step Stool # TE97FR to help reach the handle.

  • Crossbar Size Compatible with Rhino-Rack Locking Ski and Snowboard Carrier RR576
    Rhino-Rack Locking Ski and Snowboard Carrier # RR576 installs with universal hardware that fits on any shape of aftermarket roof rack crossbars as well as on most factory bars up to a maximum size of 85mm wide x 35mm tall. In inches these dimensions are approximately 3.3-inches wide x 1.3-inches tall. I confirmed these dimensions with my technical contact at Rhino-Rack. You may want to consider a simple low-cost folding accessory step # TE97FR from Telesteps that comes fully-assembled...

  • Rhino-Rack Rooftop Cargo Tray for Installation on Yakima Round Bar Rack System
    The two sizes of Rhino-Rack Pioneer rooftop cargo trays, parts # RR42114BF (48 x 38) and # RR42115BF (58 x 47), will fit on round Yakima roof rack crossbars. These Rhino-Rack brand rooftop tray-style carriers are shown on the linked page. Both work on round bars thanks to included universal-fit hardware. You will need cargo tie downs to secure your cargo to the tray. We offer all sort of tie down straps to keep your cargo safely secured to the tray. I linked our page for cam-buckle strap...

  • Malone Rooftop Cargo Box MPG910 Fit for 2012 Volkswagen Touareg with Whispbar Roof Rack
    I checked with my contact at Malone for confirmation of compatibility of their rooftop cargo box # MPG910 on your VW Touareg that has a Whispbar aero-style roof rack. My contact said that even with only 1-1/2-inches of space between your bars and the roof the mounting hardware for the Malone box should have enough space to install properly. A handy accessory for rooftop cargo is the Telesteps Step # TE97FR. Inexpensive, lightweight and fully-assembled, this folding step makes it easy to...

  • Available Surco 45 x 60-Inch Rooftop Cargo Basket for Raised Roof Rails on 2001 Jeep Cherokee
    Surco offers their rooftop cargo baskets in many sizes, including the 45 x 60-inch size, which is part # SPS4560-1101. This basket fits on raised factory roof side rails that run front to back. You can see an example installation using the video link included for you. This Surco basket offers a 250-lb weight rating but you'll want to check your Jeep manual to confirm the vehicle's own roof weight capacity. The lower of the two will determine your actual load rating. Keep in mind that the...

  • Low-Profile Rooftop Cargo Box for 2016 Mazda CX-5
    Most rooftop cargo boxes are fairly tall, in the range of 14- to 18-inches. A few are slightly shorter and a few are slightly taller. Some boxes, such as the Thule Motion XT # TH629707, have recessed mounting points on their bottom surfaces where the roof rack bars will fit. This is shown in the linked photo and helps reduce the total added height of the box. Other rooftop boxes like the Malone Cargo12 # MPG901 do not have this feature. An excellent choice of box when garage clearance...

  • Inno Roof Rack Fit on 2016 Lexus GX 460
    The Inno square bar roof rack for your 2016 Lexus GX 460 with flush-mounted roof siderails does consist of parts # INB127, # INXP and # INTR152 and it is a complete roof rack system. No other parts are needed to install it. The crossbar spacing for this system on your Lexus is adjustable and the maximum bar spacing is 49-inches between bar centers. You can check the spacing of the installation hardware on your Thule cargo box to confirm that it will be compatible with this bar spread....

  • Economical Roof Kayak Carrier for 2014 Chevy Suburban
    A post-style multi-kayak carrier like the Rhino-Rack Nautic # RRS520 that you referenced and the similar Thule Stacker # TH830 is a great way to transport up to 4 kayaks as long as the vehicle has a compatible roof rack. They are indeed a cost-effective option. But on a taller vehicle like your 2014 Suburban this type of carrier may not be the easiest to use in terms of loading and unloading since you typically need to get access to the center of the roof where the carrier typically mounts...

  • Thule Rooftop Cargo Box for 2017 Mazda CX-5 with Factory Rails and Crossbars
    Yes, indeed. Thule's Motion XT L rooftop cargo box # TH629706 is a confirmed fit on the factory roof rack crossbars on your 2017 Mazda CX-5. I verified this item's fit with Thule. This cargo carrier is an excellent choice since it is fairly lightweight (42-lbs) for its substantial 16-cubic-foot capacity; many similar-size cargo boxes weigh more. This is great not just for handling the box but also since it means more of your roof's weight capacity is left available for your actual cargo...

  • Recommended Rooftop Cargo Basket for 2012 Subaru Outback Wagon with Factory Crossbars
    Rooftop cargo carriers like metal baskets and ABS plastic cargo boxes each offer certain advantages. The better option for any given user mostly depends on the nature of the cargo. If you have items that need maximum protection then an enclosed cargo box may be the right choice. But if you do not need that protection and you want the lowest-cost option then a roof basket can be the better choice. You can check out the linked article for more thoughts on this. No matter which you choose,...

  • 2-Kayak Carrier System for Factory Crossbars on 2017 Toyota Highlander
    I can help you with a 2-kayak carrier for the factory cross bars on your 2017 Toyota Highlander. The carrier I suggest is Thule's Stacker # TH830. This multi-kayak system mounts in the middle of your cross bars and allows you to load kayaks from each side of the vehicle. The Stacker can actually handle as many as four (!) kayaks since it holds the boats on their sides to save roof space. Please refer to the linked video for more details on this carrier system. If your kayaks are longer...

  • Alternate EasySnap Mounting Kit TH05820 Compatibility with Thule Summit Cargo Box 631
    The original mounting hardware for the Thule Summit rooftop cargo box 631 is similar to the current QM3 kit # TH04997. The EasySnap hardware you mentioned has been discontinued so is no longer an option. Any extra holes in the bottom of the box that will no longer be needed for the new hardware kit can be sealed up using silicone sealant # LT37467. You might consider the handy folding Telestep's step # TE97FR for use with the cargo box. This aluminum step comes fully assembled, is very...

  • Rhino Rack Roof Rack Clearance For a 2014 Acura MDX To Carry a Thule Motion Rooftop Cargo Box
    Here is the information that I can give you about the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack Crossbars # RRVA137B-2, Legs # RRRLKVA and Fit Kit # DK400 for your 2014 Acura MDX. The front crossbar is mounted 3-15/16" on center from the seam where the front door meets the rear door. If you can measure from the center of the door seam back to where your roof meets your rear hatch this measurement plus the 3-15/16" will give you your rear hatch measurement. Your crossbars will be spread 29-17/32" on center. The...

  • Rooftop Cargo Baskets for 2016 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro with OEM Roof Rack Crossbars
    Rooftop cargo baskets like the Rhino-Rack # RMCB02 can fit most types of roof crossbars, including your factory-installed bars, as long as the bar dimensions do not exceed 3-1/2-inches in width and 1-1/4-inches in height. The bars' centers also need to be between 25-1/2- and 43-inches apart. If your roof rack meets these criteria then the Rhino-Rack RMCB02 basket will fit well. On the linked page you can view all roof baskets that can fit on factory roof rack bars. Please feel free to...

  • Alternate Mounting Hardware for Karrite Rooftop Cargo Box
    Thule made the Karrite cargo boxes for Sears and since the original Thule mounting parts are no longer available you can use a similar u-bolt kit # CTC-18PARTS from Car Top Cargo. You might need to drill a few new holes in the box to fit the alternate hardware; any extra holes can be sealed up using RTV High-Performance Silicone Gasket Maker # LT37467. A handy item to use with a rooftop cargo box is the lightweight folding step # TE97FR from Telesteps.

  • Roof Rack Compatible with 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport with Panoramic Sun Roof
    If your Santa Fe does not have factory-installed flush side rails that run front to back on your roof (and I believe that it does not have these) you can select the Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack for the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport with Panoramic Sunroof, part # RR92SR. If your Santa Fe Sport does in fact have the factory-installed roof rails that run front to back on your roof, then you can use the Thule Roof Rack, part # TH711420, # TH710501, # TH145059 which is intended for vehicles that...

  • Will the Bully Black Bull Hitch-Mounted Step Work on 2016 Honda Civic
    The Bully Black Bull Hitch-Mounted Step # BBS-1102 referenced in your question is designed to fit inside any 2 inch hitch receiver. The trailer hitches available for your 2016 Honda Civic are all going to have 1-1/4 inch receiver openings. If you would like to use this hitch-mounted step, you will also need to use a hitch adapter like the Brophy # HTAD, which will expand your 1-1/4 inch receiver to a 2 inch receiver opening that is needed. Also note that when using a hitch adapter, the...

  • Easier Way to Access Fifth Wheel Hitch on Flatbed Truck
    There is no extension for a fifth wheel hitch handle to let you access it from a distance. The best solution for you would be to use something like the Wheel Step # PT68ZR, assuming your flatbed does not jut out over the tires too significantly. Otherwise, a simple step stool such as # TE97FR is your best option.
