An additional side step is particularly useful in vans to make getting in and out of the second or third row of seats easier. We can manufacture custom-made steps tailored to the specific vehicle. Standard telescopic steps can also be used, depending on the client’s requirements and the vehicle’s design.
A mechanical side step is a device installed on a vehicle to facilitate boarding and alighting by reducing the height difference between the road surface and the vehicle floor. It operates purely on a mechanical principle without an electric drive and is typically extended manually or by means of a simple linkage or spring mechanism. It is characterised by a straightforward design, high reliability, low maintenance requirements, and adequate load capacity, and it must comply with requirements concerning strength, slip resistance, and secure locking during travel.
