Thule OmniStep

The Omni-Step "The ideal help" to quote Omnistor's catalogue) is available in a number of manual and 12v electric motorised designs, all of which have different sizes. The manual steps have to be unfolded and folded by hand. The 12v electric versions are operated using a switch mounted within the motorcaravan's habitation area and conform to the relevant EMV and CE standards. The design and manufacturing quality standards of all Thule|Omnistor Omnisteps exceeds European standard EN1646. The corners of the step are rounded and give light in the darkness

As standard, a warning switch is supplied with the step for the connection of a warning lamp or buzzer in the vehicle so that you cannot accidentally drive away with the step out. Also standard in the box with every electric step is a step control switch to mount inside your motorhome.

Optionally, for maximum visibility on a dark campsite, your motorised Omni-Step (post 2003 and not for Slideout 700) can be fitted with a set of LED lights (1 set per step). An Omnistep control box can be installed as another option, and it will automatically extend and retract a 12v step whenever the door is opened and closed; this can be especially useful in a van or minibus, for maximum passenger safety.

The steps are made of corrugated anodised aluminium, the fastening frame from aluminium or warm zinc plated steel.

Features common to all Thule | Omnistor Omni Steps include:

• Lightweight, yet extremely solid
• Safe
• Maximum static load of 200kg

With all these benefits as standard, it's no surprise that the Omni-Step is fitted as standard by many manufacturers of coach-built motorhomes, and campervan converters.
