can these steps be used with a slop side in ground pools

Dear Myra, Actually, I purchased these steps for a unique above ground application. I am using them to access a terraced bed in my backyard, that otherwise has no access so that I can garden up there. I wanted them for the high hand rail. And I confess, I have been so busy that I have not yet opened the box ! So I hope you can get an affirmative answer from a customer that has used the steps in a pool. Good luck to you, Juliette.

They are designed to screw down on to a deck so I am not sure if able to use outside of a pool. This brand must make a ladder type step that will look similar. These steps are very nice, recommend them.

Yes it should. My pool is the same and these steps are far better than what I expected. Strong sturdy and easy to assemble.

No way, not unless you are 6'5" and can reach the ground. Its awkward to sit with your feet on the bottom rung for a long time. It's not natural like having them out in front of you planted firmly on the ground.

The steps will not touch the side. We laid down a vinyl pad(advertised with the steps) for the steps to set on and it seems to be working great. I do not think that they will have any adverse effect on our liner. once installed, they do not move. Our pool is 36 x 18

My pools an in ground, I can't see why it couldn't be used for an above ground pool though.

My deck is flush with the top flat metal rim of the pool. So, these steps go in the pool, but attach to the top flat rim of the pool (not the deck). If the deck was higher and slightly over the rim of the pool, then I imagine they would need to be attached to the deck. So when climbing up the stairs from the pool, you would step off onto the deck. They give you a template for drilling the holes. In my case, I had to drill into the metal rim of the pool, and had to be careful not to get the metal shavings in the water.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean. These are steps for inside an above-ground pool (assuming most built-in pools have built-in steps). The horizontal arms are for mounting to a deck outside the pool. Confer has a different set for outside the pool, and some for spas. Go to their web-site and find what works for your situation, then come back and order it on Amazon. I'm very happy with the steps I bought. Good quality for a reasonable price.

I had to look up the M.P.S.Spa. I think, I said think they would work fine on the exterior. Evidently you don't have a built in spa, no deck? If it sits on ground/earth, I'd suggest a wooden/cement platform to sit the plastic on. I'm not sure of top weight allowed, as there is no buffer of water. You certainly don't have to anchor it from floating. My best suggestion is to put a gate on it to prevent young children from going into it to tragedy. I'm very happy with these steps, in fact, just removed them from pool today, put away for winter. This is my first summer, they still look like new, no cracks or discoloration from sun.

yes. its not that wide so the sturdyness could be a problem. Double check the dimensions and see if that will work for your steps :)

As long as the top part has a place to rest on the deck and the pad can still be in the water it should work just fine. There is weight (sand) in the upper portion (smaller end) in order to hold them in place so they don't float around.

I have a standard above ground pool that measures 48 inches high. We have an additional 6-7 inches of decking above the pool edge and they fit well. These steps work perfect because the top step is roughly at 40 inches. I believe they would work for your pool at 54 inches because the there are two adjustable pieces that stick off to the left in the picture that would be adjustable at a higher height and still hold the steps in place.

If you put it against a solid surface but then you wouldn't have the steps so I would say no....hope this helps

I would say yes, provided the steps are not too steep for you or too long for the ramp to span.

I would imagine you could. Though, you would have to fashion some type of "deck" on top of the pool coping to create a place to mount the steps. The steps have two wings which get screwed into the deck to keep them in place. You would probably need to mount some sort of deck to screw them into to make them secure. I think you would also need to make sure you fill the "dry" side steps with sand as well to add stability and strength, since they will not be filled with water, as the "wet sit would be. I hope this helps.

We use two large rounded rocks that we tie to the sides with ropes. It is easy to haul up rocks and take steps out of pool in the fall. We did not fill the steps with sand it make removal easier. The top of the steps is fastened to the side rails of our wood stairs we built for going down to our deck. This will be our third year with these steps. They are safe and sturdy and take up minimal space in pool.

The distance from the feet that sit on the bottom of pool to the top of the top step is 46-1/2". The arms that attach to the deck are 49" to 65" measured from the pool bottom. They should work for you. Very happy with my steps.
