Why Hunters Choose the Ameristep Step-Up Tree Steps
Heavy-Duty Steel Construction
Built to support confident climbing with stout, one-piece steel that resists flex and fatigue over repeated seasons.
4" Wide, Traction-Rich Platform
A generous 4-inch step and aggressive tread pattern enhance boot contact for safer climbing in real-world weather.
Self-Tapping Pilot Point
The threaded tip bites into the tree quickly for easier starts and less noise—ideal when setting up before first light.
Low-Glare Black Finish
Matte black coating reduces shine and helps the steps blend into bark and canopy shadow for a lower visual profile.
Packable 8-Pack Value
Eight steps provide flexible spacing for typical treestand heights or to supplement existing stick ladders and platforms.
Tree Health Tip: Use on living, healthy trees of sufficient diameter. Avoid brittle, diseased, or dead trees. Always follow local regulations and landowner rules.

Installation Guide (General)
Choose the Right Tree: Straight, healthy, and of sufficient diameter.
Start Low & Spiral Up: Begin 18–24" above ground, then spiral steps around the trunk to maintain a comfortable climb angle.
Thread by Hand, Seat Firmly: Use steady pressure to hand-thread the pilot point until snug.
Check Each Step: Before climbing, wiggle-test and re-tighten.
Climb with 3-Point Contact: Move one limb at a time while maintaining three points of contact.
Safety: Always use a full-body harness and lifeline/tether. Inspect steps before each use. Never exceed the manufacturer’s weight rating (consult packaging).
Pro Tips for Quiet, Safe Use
Pre-Mark Spacing: Use your forearm length or a measured tether to keep spacing consistent in low light.
Avoid Over-Tightening: Seat steps firmly without excessive torque to protect bark and threads.
Blend & Disappear: Dust steps with a bit of non-reflective camo tape if gloss appears after heavy use.
Seasonal Checkups: Mid-season, re-check tightness and tread before big weather swings or rut marathons.
