    The steps have their own charm I think, and they're in good nick. I was going to use a darker stain/product on the top to get close to the steps colour (but not worry about a true colour match).

    The plan is to give it a good clean, but not repaint it or anything as I think its all part of its character.

    So just new top, clean, wax steps, new plastic feet caps, and some little sticky-backed rubber bumpers(?) for where the metal makes contact when it folds.

    I may have been watching too much drew pritchard.

  • I think that as long as your top step is at least as thick as your smaller steps and of ply or solid wood you'll be okay. If solid wood have the grain running east to west for strength as per the smaller steps in your pic above.
