Step Right Up

If it’s been a few years since you purchased your RV, there’s a good chance you might have missed out on the new wave of solid steps for campers. These innovative designs are a big improvement over the springy, slightly wobbly steps most people have become accustomed to seeing in RVs. The older model of steps also tended to rust over time and become difficult to move. The good news is that you can retrofit almost any existing steel and aluminum steps with these new and improved models. 

Gauthiers’ Parts Store carries both Lippert SolidStep and the MORryde StepAbove®, the two most popular solid step brands. Our Service Shop is happy to give you a quote for installation and a fit check to make sure you have the right model for your RV. 

What makes both the SolidStep and the StepAbove so appealing is their reassuring stability and ease of operation. The steps always stay parallel to the ground, and aluminum treads also reduce the potential for slipping or falling. Adjustable feet make leveling easy, even on uneven or rough terrain. And both models fold up for secure storage inside the unit’s door. That means more space for storage: Check out MORryde’s Step Storage Box that adds 1.5 cubic feet of storage space where your old steps used to be.

Upgrading your steps is an easy way to improve safety and your overall camping experience. Stop by today to try out these modern stairs for yourself. They’re available in a range of different sizes/steps with add-ons like handrails. 

Take advantage of this special offer through the end of 2019: With any purchase of Lippert SolidSteps, Gauthiers’ will throw in the Lift-Assist add-on for free! (Retail value: $200.) Lift-Assist adds a gas strut into the mechanics of the step, removing virtually all of the weight from the step during deployment and while storing. 

If you’ve ever considered stepping up your RV step game, now is the perfect time. Call us at 337-235-8547 or stop by today to get a quote.


Summer Special: $100 Off Tankless Hot Water Heaters

Wouldn’t it be nice if your whole family could take hot showers after a long day of hiking and outdoor fun, without having to worry about running out of hot water? Most RVs come equipped with a standard 6-gallon water heater which takes time to heat up and can leave you cold when it runs out. Wouldn’t you rather have an unlimited supply of hot water, whenever you wanted it?

Tankless hot water heaters are replacing standard heaters in new homes and campers, because of their superior efficiency and performance. The benefits of tankless heaters for RVs are obvious: they take up less space, use less propane, and offer an endless supply of hot water on-demand. What’s not to love?

Make the switch to tankless this summer and save: We’re offering $100 off the Suburban IW60 Nautilus Tankless On-Demand RV Water Heater through the end of August. Our service team can provide professional installation for units bought from our Parts Store, and your Gauthiers’ customer discount can be applied to any other accessories you might need. Take advantage of this summer special and upgrade to a better hot water experience for your next camping adventure. Call today to get yours: 337-235-8547.
