Proven Safety & Stability

Stability by Design

  • Earth-to-RV Ground Connection: Our ground-supported design is engineered to reduce the shaking and bounce some users experience with frame-mounted fold-out steps. The result is a more confident entry and exit on varied terrain, with built-in illumination for low-light conditions.
  • Self-Illuminating Safety: Steps glow in the dark for up to 10 hours with just 5 minutes of light exposure — no batteries needed. Designed to help you navigate your steps confidently in low-light conditions.

Comfort & Accessibility Features

Ergonomic Design That Feels Like Home

  • Simple, Safe Deployment — No Pinched Fingers: Designed with smooth-operating hinges and a comfortable grab zone, the GlowStep REVOLUTION opens and folds effortlessly without catching or pinching.
  • Home-Like Step Height: Industry's shortest 7.5-inch riser height (like your home staircase) accommodates those with limited mobility, making these a comfortable step option for RVs and Airstream-compatible trailers.
  • SureGrip™ Tread: SureGrip™ slip-resistant tread extends to the front tip of each step, providing a continuous slip-resistant surface for secure footing.

Superior Construction & Premium Design

Engineered for Long-Term Strength and Smooth Performance

  • Engineered for Long-Term Durability: 100% lightweight aircraft-grade aluminum and stainless steel construction — corrosion-resistant and built to match the aesthetics of your premium trailer.
  • Engineered for Silky-Smooth Operation: Our unique bushing bolted bearing design uses precision bushings that act as a bearing surface on every hinge point, delivering effortless deployment and retraction for decades. These bushings handle significant tension without over-stiffening the step configuration, designed for smooth, consistent deployment and retraction over years of use. Unlike rivet construction that loosens over time, our stainless steel bolted design allows hinge tension adjustment years into the future.
  • Premium, High Quality Design: With a clean, low‑profile design, this aluminum and stainless steel construction pairs well with polished‑aluminum trailers — sleek, strong, and built to last.

Lifetime Investment

Built for the Long Haul

  • Upgrade That Will Last a Lifetime: Engineered for long-term durability and backed by our lifetime warranty. The GlowStep REVOLUTION is constructed from corrosion-resistant aluminum and stainless steel, built to perform for years of use. And if you ever move to a new trailer, your GlowStep REVOLUTION can go with you, ready for the next adventure.
  • Legendary Lifetime Warranty: Backed by our industry-leading warranty and proudly made in the USA.

Revolutionary Patented Adjustability

Adjustable RV Steps That Adapt to Any Terrain

This provides complete step support across any terrain, slope, or RV height for maximum stability.

Are the GlowStep Revolution steps more stable than factory Airstream steps?
Yes. Their earth-to-RV ground connection eliminates the “diving board” effect and provides rock-solid stability.

How do the steps handle uneven ground or slopes?
Patented All-Terrain Landing Gear offers independent adjustability to level your steps across any terrain or RV height.

Will these steps rust or corrode?
No. They are built from 100% aircraft-grade aluminum and stainless steel for a completely rust-free design.

How easy are they to deploy and stow?
Smooth-operating hinges and a comfortable grab zone make opening and folding effortless with no pinched fingers.

How do I choose the right size for my Airstream?
Measure from the ground to the bottom of your trailer door. If your height is at 21.5”, you will need a 2-step configuration (Part number A8072), if your height is at 24.5”, you will need a 3-step configuration (Part number A8073). 

Do the steps glow in the dark?
Yes. The steps self-illuminate for up to 10 hours after just 5 minutes of light exposure—no batteries required.

Are the steps comfortable to use?
Yes. A 7.5-inch riser height and SureGrip tread provide a natural, home-like stride with secure footing.

What’s included with the kit?
The DirtDestroyer shoe brush is included and installs in seconds to help keep dirt and debris out of your Airstream.

Is there a warranty?
Yes. GlowStep Revolution is backed by Torklift’s legendary lifetime warranty and is proudly made in the USA.

 

Customer Reviews

We really like the step and would recommend it to any Airstream owner.
Review by
It looks great, super stable, and easy to put in and out. My wife can pull the step out and put it back now. She didn’t like the original Airstream step and refused to touch it. The reflecting tape on the steps is a nice touch. We love the boot brush, since we’re both hikers. The install wasn’t difficult and could be done by anyone with a few tools and a little mechanical aptitude.

One of the best upgrades to our 1973 safari was replacing the deathtrap that was the original fold out steps.
Review by
We got the Torklift Glowstep Revolution. Install was really easy without the belly pan on, but if your belly pan and slide flaps are on you'll have to cut access holes to remove the bolts and slider mechanism from the original. The kit comes with patches for the holes.
Total install time took about 1.5 hours and didn't require any fabrication. It was a complete plug and play with basic tools (drill, ratchet and socket set). I did have to cut the original slider mechanism to slide it out.
The steps have elevator legs on the final step which allow for ground contact and it feels very sturdy.
In the video and pic I have the steps on blocks but that's because the ground slopes pretty significantly in the yard but on the flat driveway it works perfectly. I installed 32 degree axles so there is a slight lift compared to the original ride height.
There are also options with a 3rd step if you have a lift kit.
Torklift's website has more specific measurements and you can talk with them before ordering to make sure you're getting the correct step.
10/10 would recommend this to anyone doing a restoration.

Overall, the fit is perfect
Review by
The stairs are very stable. There seems to be very little torque on the the frame. The stairs also fold up nicely and I cannot tell much difference in the amount of "hang" under the frame from the OEM stairs. They look very nice and I like the sturdiness of the design. Well done.
Quality
The steps are truly a dream!
Review by
They are far superior to the steps Airstream uses. We recommend them over the originals, without hesitation. Even someone with a newer trailer should consider investing in Glowstep as a replacement. In fact, we recommended them to Keep Your Daydream on YouTube and suggested that Airstream Nuts and Bolts should keep them in stock for other Airstream owners who are not so handy.

Very Happy
Review by
The steps operated smoothly and I was very pleased with the adjustability and stability they provide. They look great and are much easier to put down than the factory steps. I like the improved locking system it is much better that the one in your website demonstration video. The glow-the-dark tape on the step edges should be adequate to guide one in the dark.
All in all, I am very happy with the product.

We will show other Streamers the step as we travel and I’m sure generate some interest for Torklift.
