The fully automatic side step for the Ford Transit Custom offers a comfortable and safe entry solution for vehicles with frequent passenger traffic. When the sliding door is opened, the step extends automatically, making it much easier to get in and out of the vehicle—especially if the vehicle has a high entry.
Product description: Electric step for Ford Transit Custom
The electric cassette step from the ESE series is suitable for the Ford Transit Custom built between 2013 and 2023 and is compatible with the standard L1 and L2 wheelbases. It was developed for professional use and impresses with its high-quality workmanship and reliable, fully automatic function.
The step surface is made of robust aluminum and offers a secure footing thanks to its anti-slip coating. The integrated motor unit within the frame keeps the cassette height low, so that ground clearance is only minimally affected.
