My wife is having trouble negotiating the steps to enter our motorhome and was wondering what experiences the good friends on this site have had handeling the problem. I was looking at the "Burr Handy-Lift" website and it seems to be in the ball park for what I need.

All ideas will be appreciated, especially mounting concerns.

Hi Don - We are the ones on the other thread that just installed a Burr Handy-Lift.
Here's the link to our photos BURR Handy Lift

We had some installation issues because of how high we had to go (55" floor to ground), position of door awning, and window. Only thing I have to remember is to duck going in/out of the door All the issues were taken care of by our installer CRM. We were fortunate they not only knew RVs but were a metal fabricating shop as well. Total cost was very reasonable.

Have only driven it from the installer back to our site but didn't hear any noise/rattles. Amazingly it sticks out less than our mirrors so no problem there.

If your wife can stand steady this will change her, and your, world. This does not accomodate chairs or scooters.

We'd be happy to answer any questions...just ask.
Marilyn & Steve
