Here are some common questions about Shure-Step® Step Stools.
What is the warranty for Shure-Step® Step Stools?
Shure-Step® Step Stools have a lifetime warranty on the plastic part of the step.
Can I return the Shure-Step® if it doesn't work for me?
Yes, we have a 60 day, no questions asked return policy. If you’re not completely thrilled with your Shure-Step®, just put it back in the box it came in and ship it back. We will cheerfully refund 100% of the purchase price of your Shure-Step®.
How do I know which Shure-Step® is the correct height and size for my passenger?
We recommend measuring the distance from the ground to the first step on the vehicle you are trying to get your passenger into. Then you want to cut that distance in half. This way your passenger has 2 equal steps up into your vehicle, one step from the ground to the top of the Shure-Step®, and one step from the top of the Shure-Step® into your vehicle.
Is there a non-slip surface on the top of the Shure-Step®?
Absolutely YES! The Shure-Step® models designed for passenger use have a 100 Grit black sandpaper pad on the top.
These models include:
Senior Step (SST)
Shure-Step II Passenger Step (SS2Y-Pass)
Tour Bus Step (TBS)
2-Step Stool (2-ST)
6 Inch Step Stool (6-ST)
Our Shure-Step® for mechanics have a diamond plate pattern molded into them with an additional ridge in the center of each diamond. This Nobby Top texture creates a non-slip surface even when oil, hydraulic fluid, or anti-freeze is spilled on it.

How much weight will the Shure-Step® hold?
In lab tests the Shure-Step® had a 1 foot long 4×4 block of wood placed on the top in 2 different positions. Then a load was applied with a hydraulic press. The wooden block was pushed into the Shure-Step® until the top of the block was flush with the top of the step, at 2750 psi. When the load was released and the step sat overnight, the step regained almost all of its original shape.
What are the Shure-Steps® made of?
The Shure-Step® is made from Linear Low Density Polyethylene which is a very durable and elastic type of plastic. It is the same plastic used to make the orange traffic barrels you see during highway construction.
