Clearview Powerboard Steps:
- Easier entry and exit for lifted vehicles: If you have an off-road vehicle with increased ground clearance due to a lift kit, getting in and out can be a challenge. Clearview Powerboard Steps automatically deploy electrically when you open the door, providing a secure and stable step to reach the cabin.
- Improved accessibility: For anyone who finds it difficult to climb into a high vehicle, Clearview Powerboard Steps can be a game-changer. This can be especially helpful for children, older adults, or people with mobility limitations.
- Maintains ground clearance: Unlike traditional running boards that hang permanently below the vehicle, Clearview Powerboard Steps retract when not in use. This means they won’t compromise your vehicle’s ground clearance when off-roading.
- Sleek and stylish design: When retracted, Clearview Powerboard Steps tuck away under the vehicle, maintaining a clean and streamlined look.
- Durability and weight capacity: These steps are typically made from high-strength aluminium for durability and can hold up to 300kg
Clearview Powerboard Steps are a great option if you have a lifted off-road vehicle and want a convenient, safe, and stylish way to enter and exit. They can also be helpful for anyone who finds it difficult to get into a high vehicle. And you have to love the sleek look when they are folded away, providing additional clearance vs traditional, bulky static steps.
