The double-step design helps reduce the height of each step, which makes getting in and out of the van easier, especially on caravans that sit higher off the ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eElectric operation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe step can be operated using the supplied rocker switch. It also comes with a door sensor, which can be set up so the step extends when the caravan door opens and retracts again when the door closes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe wiring harness and 20A fuse are included as part of the electrical setup. As this is an electric step, it needs a working 12V power supply for the motor to operate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you prefer a manual step without a motor or wiring, you can also have a look at our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/rvessentials.com.au\/products\/double-pull-out-caravan-step\"\u003emanual double caravan step\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo wide steps\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe two aluminium treads have a ribbed non-slip surface to give you better grip when stepping in and out of the van. The step has a maximum static load rating of 200 kg.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHaving two steps instead of one gives you a more comfortable climb to the caravan door. It can be particularly handy on vans where the doorway sits a fair way off the ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you want a bit of extra support near the doorway, a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/rvessentials.com.au\/products\/rv-essentials-350mm-knurled-grab-handle\"\u003ecaravan grab handle\u003c\/a\u003e can also be fitted nearby.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDimensions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBefore ordering, check the dimension drawings in the product photos and measure the available space under your caravan door.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall width:\u003c\/strong\u003e approximately 540 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOpen projection:\u003c\/strong\u003e approximately 693 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall drop when open:\u003c\/strong\u003e approximately 324 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFolded projection:\u003c\/strong\u003e approximately 371 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFolded height:\u003c\/strong\u003e approximately 280 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe mounting rails have both round and slotted holes, which gives some adjustment when lining the step up with the mounting point. The holes are designed to suit 12 mm bolts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis step needs to be securely mounted underneath the caravan doorway and connected to the caravan's 12V electrical system. Because it involves both structural mounting and electrical wiring, we recommend having it installed by a caravan repairer, installer or auto electrician.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe installer should also check that there is enough room for the step to fully extend and retract without hitting the chassis, suspension, plumbing or anything else underneath the van.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCheck the fit before ordering\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCaravan chassis and doorway setups can vary, so this isn't a universal fit for every van. Measure your available mounting area and compare it with the drawings before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePay particular attention to the overall width, the space needed when the step is folded, and how far it extends when open. If you're unsure whether it will fit your caravan, contact us before ordering and we'll help you check the measurements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eLooking after your electric step\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eKeep the step clean and remove any mud, sand or road grime from the moving parts after travelling. Check the mounting bolts and wiring connections from time to time, and avoid spraying high-pressure water directly at the motor or electrical components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe step comes with a 1-year RV Essentials warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RV Essentials","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52776091320632,"sku":"BLK_ELC_DBL","price":445.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0816\/1984\/5432\/files\/black-electric-double-caravan-step-extended.png?v=1786232269","url":"https:\/\/rvessentials.co.nz\/products\/black-electric-double-caravan-step","provider":"RV Essentials Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
