HCCR RV Products (a specialized steel fabrication joint venture based out of Fountain Hills, AZ, and Henderson, NV), here is the specific installation, safety, and model guide for their heavy-duty portable systems.

HCCR systems are specifically engineered to solve the safety flaws of traditional decks by using a commercial-grade, freestanding steel-framed modular design that requires no physical attachment to your RV frame.

HCCR Installation & Assembly Guidelines

1. Fast Modular Setup

• Under 30-Minute Assembly: Because the structural framing is completely modular, standard StairSafe models (deck + stairs) can be completely assembled or taken down in less than 30 minutes.

• The StairLite Speed Option: If you use the standalone StairLite system (stairs and railings without a main deck platform), setup time drops down to just 3 minutes.
• Interconnecting Scalability: You can easily chain multiple modules together. For example, you can take a standard D40 (40″×40″) or D60 (40″×60″) base and interlock additional decks (XD40 / XD60) to build a highly customized, expansive raised patio platform.

2. Site Leveling & RV Integration

• Adjustable Leg Option: Campgrounds rarely feature perfectly flat concrete or dirt pads. Order the Option A6 (StairSafe) or Option A4 (StairLite) to gain up to 4 inches of individual screw-type leg adjustments to perfectly level the deck on uneven earth.
• Universal Door Fit: HCCR models are highly adaptive, built to fit RV door threshold heights ranging anywhere from 14 inches to 49 inches off the ground.
• Door Cut-Out Compatibility: If your camper uses modern stairs that fold directly up into the door frame, request the Stair Cut-Out (SCO) option to seamlessly integrate the platform with your factory entryway.

HCCR Structural Safety Engineering

1. Overbuilt ADA & Fall Standards

• Step Dimensions: To prevent trip hazards, the steps are built 30 inches wide and 10 inches deep (with an optional 13-inch deep step available on the StairLite top tier) to give your boots a wide, completely stable landing pad.
• Low-Impact Risers: Standard step risers are set to a comfortable 7 inches, but custom low-impact 5-inch or 6-inch risers can be ordered to drastically reduce knee and joint strain.
• Handrail Security: Every stair layout features two solid steel handrails, matching or exceeding stringent ADA commercial accessibility standards.

2. Pet and Child Protection

• Baluster Spacing: Standard guardrail balusters are spaced at 6 inches, but you can upgrade to 4-inch tight spacing (Option C) to prevent toddlers or small dogs from slipping through the rails.
• Built-In Kennels: Pairing the 4-inch baluster package with a lockable/removable deck gate transforms your outdoor deck into a secure, elevated deck-level pet kennel. They also offer an interlocking ground-level kennel system that hooks directly into the deck setup.

3. Weather & Traction Safeguards

• Anti-Slip Metal: The underlying framework features a raised, non-slip metal grid pattern.
• SwissTrax Upgrades: For sites exposed to heavy rain, choose the SwissTrax premium tile overlay. These 15″×15″ interlocking tiles are completely non-slip and self-draining, preventing water from pooling on your walking surface.
• Thermal Protection: In extreme summer conditions, bare steel railings become scorching hot. Adding the Redwood Stair Railing Caps (WL14-35) keeps the handles completely cool to the touch while giving the rig a premium, varnished look.

Storage and Transit Safety

Don’t sacrifice your valuable internal storage bays or pass-through compartments to haul your deck. HCCR designs a dedicated Hitch-Based Cargo Carrier (CC). This custom rack mounts directly into the rear hitch receiver of your travel trailer, fifth wheel, or motorhome, and comes fully equipped with all necessary heavy-duty tie-down components to lock the disassembled steel frames safely to the back of your rig while traveling down the highway.
