bri, you don't really want anything fixed sticking out the side of the van (I think the legal limit used to be 2 inches wider than the wheel arches) so I'd go for something like the Omni step (slide out version). Lots of suppliers so Google for it. I have their fold out version at the rear door and its very robust although it doen't look it. You'll probably need fo fabricate your own mounts to strengthen the lower body and attach to the sill/floor but this is not a problem as B&Q sell a selection of useful steel profiles if you don't have any lying around.

Best wishes, steve

There is a Company that advertises in MMM magazine PWS who do cab steps http://www.pwsacc.co.uk I have thought of getting some myself as my missus if finding it harder to lift herself up into the cab.Ray
