hi joy I started another thread for you on this one. What you need is quite feasible and would entail a metal internal framework inside of your existing door bolted to the floor and wall with a 12v winch or hand winch fitted inside to assist in taking the weight but not a dead lift or you run the risk of dragging mum into the step, hee hee. Not sure how much room you have inside. the othe option if mum is able to walk a little is a ramp rather than a step.Hi Eddie, slightly different but next time you getting head round something, can you also look at how to get a disabled person INTO the motorhome please? My mum needs a wheelchair and the step into the van is too high.
I have put small steps leading up to it but it is still impossible for her to bend her leg. I would love some kind of hoist - a belt that goes round their back (a bit like they have in hospitals to put them into the bath) ... I think. NOt sure and I just can't picture anything to help me pull her up into the van if I get her foot onto the step. :Sad:
Thank you. Joy
