We are concerned that The adapter shows a hole for a bolt but the step does not have a place for this bolt. Will it be secure and not fall?

This is my 2nd one. The first had a hole, this doesn't. It does slide and can come out. I just shove it back. It's plastic, so easy to drill through and make a hole. I haven't needed to bolt it and it's easier to remove for parallel parking. If another car bumps it hard enough it will break.

Yes, adapter shows a hole for bolt but I never use it . Adapter is hold very tightly I even had a hard time to pull out it after I took out step .

It slides in far enough to be stable...I had to get an extension because of my tailgate, and it still works fine. My dog is 80lbs

It's not designed to stay in while you drive. With that being said I drive around town with it on all the time. I don't drive with it on the highway show because it wouldn't be good if it fell off at those speeds.

Absolutely, ours is 100% secure even after 5 years of use! It is not meant to stay on while driving, but I have left it on for short distances and it has been fine. It is said to hold 200#s.

No bolt is needed. The portion of the step that fits into the trailer hitch area is a good match. I have not seen any fit issues, it is secure when my two saints go up and down.My dogs weigh 160 and 180 lbs. hope that helps.

I actually use it for my mountain bike and have no issues, just the bike sits up a tad higher. I do not know if there is an adapter.

Our gates have been up for several months now and I can honestly say we've had no problems whatsoever. The adapter is used at the top of our stairs and it's worked great for us so far! I definitely recommend it.

Same problem here. I just connected the TV to the base without the screw and it seems pretty secure to me on the TV stand. Hopefully it not tumble over randomly one day while I am at work...

I am sure it will work okay. You will have to rig up something to secure it. Shouldn't be to difficult to do from what I see looking at mine.

It's pretty sturdy. What makes my gate wiggle sometimes is the fact that the wall opposite the adapter has baseboards, which makes it uneven. If I lift the gate so both rubber feet are on the wall, no problems at all. The adapter is great!

I have one of these. It attaches with 2 bolts that slide right into place and is held in place by 2 nuts that you screw in tightly by hand . It stays in place very well and looks great. I think this is what you mean by "screw in bolt." I am pleased with mine. Good luck!

This device attaches to a single rung ladder well, but has only one bar and a wing nut to hold it to the ladder. I don't think it would reach from the support side of a step ladder to reach the step side of the ladder and attach securely.

I love the mount and it can be very secure. You may have to press down hard on the turned down end of the rail to disengage the rail, and then pull the unit away along the rail.Cheers, Tom

It's designed to fit GoPro mounts, but theoretically yes, you could just bolt it to stuff if you really want to go that route; not sure if it would be 1. Stable 2. Safe 3. Secure when directly mounting it like that, and you would run into geometric issues with the shape of the contour and how small this adapter actually is.

I have the adapter and bought the stroboframe bracket shoe as well but that was a mistake because the Stroboframe shoe mount has a notch underneath not shown in the picture that hinders it from being useful. Get the Vello brand shoe mount!!

The adapter is a swivel stud which is needed to attach the bi pod , if you already have a swivel stud on the weapon then you do not need the adapter

It might fit on the adapter. But the back end will hang off a bit. On mine it requires 5 little spaces from back to front.

Mine used to fall off too. If you haven't already thrown it out, call them and have them send you a new replacement adapter that is metal. They know about this issue and will send it out for free.

Bolting it to the wall would make it more secure but I do not believe secure enough to do what you want. Mine in a place where I do not bump into it and thus far it has been fine.

It fits a standard 2 inch square receiver. If you do not have a two inch receiver on your vehicle, another option, an one inch to two inch extension adapter would also work. It would, however, leave the step extending approximately four to five inches more away from your one inch receiver. A step down receiver adapter would also work if you want the step to be lower. It would move the step another three inches or so away from the receiver attached to the vehicle. The step down adapter only comes in a two inch square size.

I am not sure. The bed rails that I tried to use didn't seem to fit in the slots of the adapter well and it was not stable. I though after that perhaps I could have used a different type of rail and just screwed it in. I still have the one's I bought and have not used them. They are strong but I would use larger screws than what comes with in the packages. They are short and am not sure if they would withstand much weight.
