Stair Width

Hello,
Just purchased a new Passport 229RK.
Any chance someone can tell me the stair width? I don’t pick it up till Saturday and want to get the stair covers.

What is the door width? I don't remember others but my last 2 trailers had 30" doors and 23" covers fit them IIRC. You need to know if the steps are perfectly rectangular or have a curved front.

Those sure do look like the standard 24” width.

Hey George, there isn't a lot to cleaning those covers. We keep a short handled brush by the door and brush those covers down before we pull them in (they fold inside). Nothing to it and keeps a lot of debris out of the front of the door we used to track in. 20" would work I figure on any of the steps (noting rectangular or round front) but leave a bit of the edges exposed...but you won't be walking on those anyway.
