The steps are a new item so not many people are going to have experience with them yet. I'm trying to visualize what you're describing, can you post some pictures and maybe we can help

Big Dave, we setup our patio deck with the steps / handrail and had no problems. The handrail posts and holes on the steps lined up.
If yours don't line up properly, you might want to check with the dealer.
I forgot to take pictures since we were busy trying to figure out where to store everything we transferred over from our Sprinter.

Steps for Patio
We just went to the Cleveland RV show this weekend and I went there to look at the steps for the patio. We have a 2013 332 TS with no steps, so I want some! After talking to the Sales Rep. I figured out I wasn't going to get from Raptor what I wanted, which is just the steps! I don't want to change my railing. The one half can just fold back to let me in. I don't need a separate doorway with a gate. I haven't called Lippert who probably makes them. But going through the aisles in the show I happened across Mor/ryde who has a step option also coming out. It looks good and is adjustable for angle and height. No price yet, is what I was told. Maybe another 90 days. This one you can attach where ever you put an opening. More to come about price! I got pictures but there on my DW's camera. Tomorrow!

I saw the Mor/ryde option on the Voltages this weekend at the Denver show. The Voltages have the legacy style patio rails with only 2 rails on the rear. The steps just fit right into the ramp and had adjustable bottom feet. I asked the Voltage rep and he said you could buy them from the dealer and expect to pay around $500. Of course these said Voltage on the side, so hopefully the ones directly from Mor/ryde will be generic and a bit cheaper. These should work with all legacy style patios.

I cannot wait for these to come to the general market. Will be a great addon to allow friends to use the deck without constantly walking through the rv.

TORKLIFT has folding steps that attach/detach from a permanent mounting bracket. They are a "regular addition" to pickup campers and come in 2,3,4,5 or 6 step models with or without hand rails and some even have a "glow in the dark" safety feature. I think that they would be an easy addition to any patio by simply installing the mount bracket on the edge of the rear/side door and during setup, attach the steps and unfold. We had them on both of our truck campers. They are easy to use and attach in about 30 seconds.
Here's a picture and the link: http://www.torklift.com/index.php/pr...rails/glowstep

Howdy, I had the same problem with my FZ403 Chrome, the holes in the steps would not even come close to lining up with the brackets on the patio/ramp door which makes it pretty evident that they do not test this before it leaves the factory. it was also evident that if I just removed the brackets and turned them 180 degrees the holes would then line up and sure enough the did. Hopefully this works for you as well.
