Introduction
When operating a tender trailer, easy and safe access to the deck is vital — especially when loading, adjusting, or inspecting equipment. The PhiBer Trailer Steps provide a robust and ergonomic solution, letting operators climb on and off trailer decks with confidence. Whatever your deck height, PhiBer offers step kits built to match and integrate with your trailer.
Key Benefits of PhiBer Trailer Steps
- Improved Safety & Ergonomics — With a grab handle and secure steps, you reduce slip/fall risk and operator strain.
- Deck-Height Matching — PhiBer offers kits for different deck heights (e.g. 34", 41") so the step aligns properly with the trailer deck.
- Durable Construction — Built from painted steel and welded components for long life even in demanding field use.
- Simple Installation — Comes with a drill template, hardware, mounting frame, and instructions.
- Integrated Handle — Kits include a handle to aid stability when stepping up or down.
What Are PhiBer Trailer Steps?
PhiBer’s trailer step kits are accessory products designed to mount under or alongside a flat-deck trailer (often part of a DASH sprayer setup), giving operators a firm, safe foothold to access the deck. The steps mount through the trailer deck using the supplied frame, bolts, and hardware.
There are different kits to match deck heights. For example:
- ECM400026 for ~41" deck height
- ECM400055 for ~34" deck height
The installation uses a drill template, frame, and step assembly. A handle can be mounted to the side of the trailer to assist safe climbing.
Choosing the Right PhiBer Trailer Step Kit
When selecting a PhiBer step kit, here are your considerations:
- Deck Height — Choose the step kit that matches your trailer’s deck height (e.g. 34", 41")
- Mounting Location — Decide where you want the step (which side of trailer, alignment) and ensure the step frame fits the available deck area.
- Clearance & Interference — Make sure steps and handle do not interfere with hoses, piping, or other systems under the deck.
- Hardware — Use the supplied mounting hardware.
