Manual Folding Vehicle Step NZ — Bolt-On Fold-Down Step, 200kg Capacity

A high step into a van, motorhome, campervan or 4WD is hard on the knees — and a hazard when it’s wet. This manual folding vehicle step gives you a solid, permanently-mounted step that simply folds down when you need it and folds back up out of sight when you don’t. No wiring, no power, nothing to go flat — just a strong, reliable step whenever you need a hand getting in and out.

Often searched as a fold-down step, folding step for a car, van step, campervan step or manual side step, it bolts to the chassis or a load-bearing point near the door and suits vans, people-movers, motorhomes, campervans and 4WDs.

Why Choose a Manual Folding Step?

Unlike a powered step, this manual step needs no wiring, no power connection and no leisure-battery charge — so it keeps working even when the battery is flat, and there are no electrics to fail over time. That makes it a simple, dependable and lower-cost choice for campervans, motorhomes and work vans, and it folds away concealed so it doesn’t spoil the look of the vehicle. If you’d prefer a step that deploys automatically with the door, see our electric side step instead.

What It’s Used For

A manual folding step suits anyone who finds a high step-in awkward — older or less-mobile passengers, families, and tradespeople getting in and out of a work van all day. It’s popular on campervans, motorhomes, caravans, people-movers and 4WDs, giving a lower, sturdy intermediate step between the ground and the vehicle floor.

Manual or Electric?

If simplicity, lower cost and no reliance on power matter most, the manual folding step is the practical choice. If you’d rather the step deploy and retract automatically every time the door opens, our electric side step is the better fit. Not sure which suits your vehicle and needs?
