  • Morryde extending hand rail

    I have seen YouTube's on the new extending handrail Morryde is coming out with. Anyone know where you can get one or when they might be generally available?

    A friend of mine picked one up at the Hershey RV Show. I am not sure when they will be available, check with Morryde but I think it should be soon.

      I picked one up when I was at Morryde a couple weeks ago. Their cost was $175 installed. We got it for 2 reasons.

      It extends all the way to the bottom of the stairs so my MIL can get in easier when she camps with us.
      I can open the door without having a grab handle in the way. This is helpful for where I keep it stored. Limited room makes it easier to load/unload like this.

      They said they are waiting for packaging before they can sell to the public.

      They also had a handle that extends down to open the door easier. It's a little janky looking, but makes opening the door 100x easier. No more dancing on the top steps to get the door open. We passed because I didn't care for how it looked on the camper.

        Please post some pics of the new handle installed on your rig.

            How is the lateral/side-to-side stability of this rail?

            I installed the SC Lend-A-Hand Extended Assist Rail and, as howson noted in a previous thread, it is wobbly. So much so that my sister had a tumble off the side of the steps. I re-installed the smaller OE Lend-A- Hand which seems to have less movement.

              I get 1" of movement from resting position and pushing it over. This is at the end of the railing.

                That is pretty amazing. Just by looking at the design one would think that it would be pretty easy to move/bend front left to right. It must be built well.

                Thanks, for sharing.
