MetalCloak Rocklander Hinge Steps for the Ineos Grenadier, Pair

A lifted Grenadier on bigger tyres has one drawback few people consider when buying the lift: suddenly you have to climb into it, and the roof is out of reach. Rocker rails help you get in, but they do nothing for loading a roof rack or cleaning the windscreen.

These steps mount on the door hinges and fold down only when you need them. The rest of the time they sit flipped up, so they add no width to the vehicle and do not become another thing to catch on the trail. The platform is 304 stainless throughout and is rated to 350 lbs.

Key benefits

• 304 stainless steel platform – the part you stand on in wet, salted boots has no business rusting. The ridged surface provides grip.
• Two-piece adjustable mount – only one side of the hinge is detached at a time during the install, so the door never loses its alignment. MetalCloak specifies no shims or washers for the fit.
• Four flanged nylon pivot bushings – they eliminate metal-to-metal contact, so the step folds smoothly and does not rattle while driving.
• Micro tension adjustment – stainless adjustment bolts let you set how firmly the platform moves.
• Fully welded stainless stop pins – rather than bolted, which removes one more place for corrosion to start.
• They flip up – on the trail they do not protrude and do not add hang-up points.

Who they are for

Mainly for lifted Grenadiers on larger tyres, where getting into the cab and reaching the roof stopped being comfortable. They also earn their place on expedition builds with a roof rack or roof tent — then you use them every time you load up. If you carry children or older passengers, this is one of those additions noticed on day one.

Installation notes

MetalCloak rates the install as easy and quotes around 30 minutes with no body modification. The two-piece bracket is the key detail: only one side of the hinge comes off at a time, so the door never drops out of alignment and needs no readjustment afterwards.

Why they are worth it

• They solve a real problem with a lifted vehicle without costing you clearance or width.
• Stainless steel where your boot lands — no rust after the first winter.
• Half an hour to fit, no drilling and no doors knocked out of alignment.

Frequently asked questions

How many steps are in the kit?

Two — a set for both doors.

What is the weight capacity?

MetalCloak rates them at 350 lbs, around 159 kg.

Is the whole product stainless steel?

No. The fold-down platform itself is grade 304 stainless, while the bracket that mounts to the hinge is powder coated hot rolled steel.

Will fitting them misalign the doors?

It should not. The bracket is two-piece, so only one side of the hinge is detached at a time, and MetalCloak specifies no shims or washers for the fit.

Do the steps fold away?

Yes, that is the point — the platforms flip up to minimise hang-up points off-road.

Which model years do they fit?

The Ineos Grenadier from the 2024 model year to current production.
