Anti slip for your steps

Always found these steps to be a little slippery, so purchased some anti-slip adhesive back tape for a few £'s.

Now my dog can enter and exit with safety, good for humans also Laughing

Can be bought from Amazon <HERE>

Very neatly applied,

Another tip, I had a step similar to the one in the photo and the welds which fixed the steps to the legs started to rust and could have compromised the safety, so give the welds a quick spray of WD40 to prevent any rust.

We also put some rubber feet on the bottom of our step legs, to stop them sinking into the ground, or making dints in the door mat we used outside the caravan.  I can't remember where we got them from, but they fit perfectly!  Some barsteward stole them, though, in August when they nicked the steps!

Just  a  quick  question  Is  the  tape  like  carborundum  on  the  "non Slip"  side  ??  if  it  is  then  don't  make  a  habit  of  sitting  on  them very  often   !!  The  steps  are  the  right  height  for  lots  of  little  jobs  such  as  cleaning  your  walking  boots,  toweling  down  the  dogs  etc  and  if  you  sit  on  them  often  with  an  abrasive  tape  you'll  find  your  pants  get  worn  away  smartish  !!  Otherwise  its  a  great  idea  !

I bought some Fiamma (I think) covering for my steps a few months ago.  It's non slip and cleans shoes off well.  Dogs like it too.  It looks a little like fake grass.  Made for MHs but the dimensions were advertised wrongly and it fits my folding 2 step well.  I was going to cut it down but didn't need to.
