Entry steps & how they could be improved

[Diesel-Gypsy]

What are folks doing about the worst designed part of just about ALL trailers?
The door entry steps work, but on a scale of 1 to 10 I rate these steps at 5 at best.
Every time I reach for the door handle I have to do this awkward backwards lean.
Standing on that lower step and opening the door is just plain goofy!

So, what have the "bright fellaz" done to remedy this poor design.

I think it's time to don my thinking cap, and widen, and broaden that lower step.
Like a platform, so that there is room to actually swing open the door with-out having to do an awkward balancing act.

Thoughts....
