FAQ

These are electric powered step/running boards that automatically extend upon door opening and retract upon door closing.

When steps are activated with door opening, the LED lighting will turn on at the same time. They will also turn off within a second of it retracting fully.

Each board is designed to withstand a minimum of 550 lbs of weight under normal use.

The steps are coated with Thermoset powder coating that is extremely durable as well as slip resistant providing enough friction to maintain grip during normal use of stepping on and off the steps.

The boards are designed to withstand extreme conditions such as dust and dirt, as well as snow and ice, with temperatures as low as -40°F and as high as 176°F.

Primary materials used in the construction of these steps are corrosion-resistant high-grade extruded aluminum and high tensile strength carbon steel with Zinc galvanizing where applicable.

No, the lighting is integrated into the running board itself, providing high visibility, safety features, and a stunning look.

We always recommend professional installation as a matter of course. However, customers with high automotive systems knowledge and experience may install them themselves.

AutoTech Trends can assist and connect customers to a nearby installer based on the customer’s address. The installation contract is strictly between the customer and the installer.

Not yet, as we are currently a direct-to-consumer business. However, we are continually discussing options for a dealer network.

We recommend regular monthly power washing of the bracket and motors joint mechanism to remove dust and dirt build-up, and regular cleaning of the steps. Do not apply polishes or waxes to the running boards to maintain their slip-resistant feature. Lubricate all moving joints with a high-quality automotive parts lubricant.
