Can the Easy Pool Step be used on the exterior of a pool as well? I need steps inside and outside of an above ground pool.

The NE113 does not have this option however the Easy Pool Step Entry System w/ Gate has both the inside and outside step.

I have the Easy Pool Step and need to replace the hand rails. Do you sell just the hand rails?
Reply
Yes, we do sell the replacement handrails for the East Pool Step on our website.

Do you have to use sand with the East Pool Step in order for it to stay down in the water? Or can you use some kind of weight to hold it down?
Reply
In order for step to sit properly, it must be weighted in place using approximately 40 lbs of sand. To weight step, place funnel in opening of side panel on top step that is now inside pool. Pour 20 lbs of sand into each side of the step.

Are the handrails for step system NE113 offered as a replacement part or sold by separately?
Reply
I need steps to get in and out of a pond. Would you sell these without the handrails and for how much? Thank you

Hello - This comes from the manufacture with the hand rails in the set. We are simply a on-line retailer and get the items straight from them. I checked their site, and a few others, and all come with handrails.

Is there a chance the steps could punch a hole in a vinyl pool bottom or side?

Hi Kathy, We would suggest our Pool Step Pad which would ensure that this does not happen.

What is the $ of shipping?
Reply
Hello Candy - The shipping charge is determined by your zip code. You can calculate the shipping charge by clicking on the "Shipping Calculator". This is located on the product page or from the view cart page once you have added the step to the cart.

We have the blue wave easy steps. We also bought the easy step weight system for them. The steps Do Not stay down, but float forward. What can we do to get them to go flat?
Thank you!

Ann, You can solve your problem by adding more weights.

Will the steps work for an inground pool?
Reply
Amanda, Not these would not work on an inground pool as typically an inground pool has a wall height of 42" and these steps are designed for an above ground pool's wall height of 48" - 54". This means that if you put these steps on an inground pool then the top step would rise above your pool deck. We do carry an Inground Pool Step which designed specifically for inground pools.

does the ladder need to be bolted to concrete
Reply
No, if you go with this pool step with the outside ladder attachment then the ladder is not bolted down to concrete.
Reply
Hi, can I fill the steps with any kind of sand? Thanks!
Reply
Hello Katie, the manufacture does not list a specific type of sand needed for the installation. I would suggest #20 Silica because it is the same type used in sand filters.

Hi I believe these are the steps we have, we just had our liner replaced and the steps won't stay down now. We have the sand in them and water as well. any suggestions what we can do to keep them from floating up. I would much appreciate any suggestions you have. thanks so much
Reply
Sandy, You can replace the water with sand to see if that will work. This Easy Pool Step system requires 40lbs of sand to properly weigh it down.

Hi Art, The NE113 Easy Pool Step Handrail (SOLD INDIVIDUALLY) (NEP2012) will be the replacement handrail for the Easy Pool Step (NE113).

Just installed the NE113 pool step. It is too high.
Can we remove the E Base at the bottom to make it lower?
Also how important is it to lubricate the poles? Thanks
Reply
Hi Freida, The Base acts as support for the step so that it would not tilt, I would not recommend not installing the steps without the base. Lubricating the pole will help with the installation.

Thank you for your answer to my question, however I made a mistake, I should have asked for replacement side panels?

Hi Frank, The Easy Step Side Panel (NEP20191) would be the correct part for the Easy Pool Step (NE113).

i see your instructions say to use a funnel to pour sand in to top step. i saw a large gallon size sand weighted container while shopping the pool store. is there a open shelf on one of the steps underside to set 2 on. this would be easier.

Unfortunately, there is not a shelf to set a container of sand on under these steps.

After installation, how do you remove the stairs from the pool for winter storage?
Reply
Hi Mary, This will be a two person job and someone will need to get into the pool. You pretty much do the opposite of the NE113 Installation Instructions until you get to a point where the steps are freed from the pool.

How far apart are the steeps my pool size is 18x48 will this ladder work for me how long does it take to get it
Reply
Hello Thelma- The steps are 10" apart, these will work for your size pool. We currently have them in stock, so it would take about 5-7 business days to arrive. Keep in mind this is meant to attach to a deck, if you don't have a deck you would want to get the Easy Pool Step w/ outside ladder - NE126.

My deck sits higher up. How come there is not company that can make a ladder step like this that can reach my 64 inch deck and I can attach the steps to it. Or would it be ok just to run it up to it and sand down the steps enough to where they can just sit in pool.? Do they really need to be secured to the deck? Or how about an optional piece that I can attach to the front beam of my deck? It is a wide board that goes all the way the front part of my deck?
