I cant say I've seen them on sale anywhere. My main concerns with the solid types are the fact that the door has to open ALL THE WAY for the storage brackets to clear, and when the tabs are against the door frame you have to almost FORCE the door closed or adjust the strike plate for a looser fit. And you have to get the angle of the steps right or the door will drag and potentially not close.

I deal with these steps on a daily basis so I have LOTS of firsthand knowledge and use. Easy install for sure, but If I was looking at a new trailer, those steps would be a deal breaker....JMHO.
