WHY WE’RE THE #1 BEST-SELLING ILLUMINATED, AUTOMATED RUNNING BOARDS
Integrated LED lighting
A patented single strip-glow LED runs the length of each board and lights the ground as the step drops. No bolt-on light pods, no separate wiring run, nothing hanging under the sill to catch on a kerb.
Automatic entry and exit
The board drops four inches the moment a door opens and retracts flush when it closes. The control module reads the vehicle’s own door sensors, so there is no switch to remember and nothing to operate with your hands full.
Safety and grip
A ridged, anti-slip stepping surface holds securely in rain, snow and mud. An integrated obstruction sensor automatically stops and retracts the board if anything is in its path — a foot, a kerb, a snowbank.
450-565 lbs per board
Toughened steel brackets, zinc-galvanized against salt and standing water corrosion, carry 450-565 lbs per side without flex. The aluminum extrusion above them is powder-coated inside and out for durability.
Automatically retracting when you enter and exit your car!

Why buyers choose us
The specialist who's still here after the sale
A powered running board is a considered purchase. What matters at this price is not just the board — it's who stands behind it once it's on your vehicle.
A real business, not a listing
A physical warehouse and support team in Houston, Texas — an address and a phone number you can call. Talk to a person before you buy, and after.
Warranty backed by people
A 1-year parts warranty handled by our own team. If something needs attention, one call reaches the people who shipped it.
Specialists, not a marketplace
Running boards are what we do. Every kit is matched to your exact model and year, and fitted through our authorized installer network.
The only US-based supplier
Stocked, warrantied and shipped from Houston — not drop-shipped from overseas. An American company standing behind every board.
