Torklift International Boarding Steps

Torklift International Boarding Steps: Engineered for Safety, Built to Last

When it comes to safely entering and exiting a truck camper, fifth wheel, or travel trailer, few names carry the weight of Torklift International. Founded in 1999 and headquartered in Sumner, Washington, Torklift has built a reputation on uncompromising engineering standards and American craftsmanship. Nowhere is that philosophy more evident than in their line of boarding steps — a product category where poor design isn't just inconvenient, it's a safety hazard.

The GlowStep & GlowStep Revolution: Purpose-Built Innovation

Torklift's flagship boarding step products — the GlowStep and the GlowStep Revolution — represent a fundamentally different approach to RV entry and exit. Rather than relying on factory-installed steps that may flex, corrode, or fail over time, Torklift engineered their scissor step systems from the ground up with two goals in mind: durability and visibility.

• Aircraft-Grade Aluminum & Stainless Steel Construction: GlowStep systems are crafted from 100% aircraft-grade aluminum and stainless steel, making them completely rust-free — a stark contrast to the factory steel steps found on many RVs.
• Glow-in-the-Dark Technology: The integrated glow tape illuminates in the dark for up to 10 hours after just minutes of light exposure — no wiring, no batteries, no fumbling for a flashlight at night camp.
• Versatile Step Configurations: Steps are easily added or removed to accommodate varying heights, scaling from two to six steps depending on your rig's entry height.
• Generous Load Capacity: With a GlowGuide handrail, 2- to 4-step models support up to 375 lbs, and 5- to 6-step models support up to 325 lbs — capacities that inspire real confidence.
• Available Tread Depths: Both 6-inch and 8-inch step tread depth options give users control over step geometry to suit their comfort and rig height.

The GlowStep Revolution takes the original concept further, designed specifically for towables, fifth wheels, and side-entry campers. It features All Terrain Landing Gear that adapts to uneven ground, and the steps stow compactly in the step well — higher than many factory step designs — locking securely for travel to maintain ground clearance.

Powder-Coated Durability & Weather Resistance

All steel components in Torklift step systems receive a powder-coated finish that creates a robust barrier against weathering, rust, and road chemicals — the kinds of conditions that quickly degrade lesser step systems. Whether you're camping in desert heat or mountain snow, these steps are engineered to maintain their structural integrity across countless seasons.

Made in the USA with a Legendary Lifetime Warranty

Every GlowStep system is designed, engineered, and assembled in the United States under strict quality control standards. Torklift backs this commitment with their Legendary Lifetime Warranty — a manufacturer's guarantee that reflects genuine confidence in the long-term performance of their materials and engineering. For RV owners who plan to keep their rig for years or decades, that kind of standing behind a product matters enormously.

Whether you're upgrading from worn-out factory steps or outfitting a new camper build, Torklift International's boarding steps deliver the safety, visibility, and durability that serious outdoor enthusiasts demand.
