Dog Dock Steps by WaterDog Adventure Gear
Dog Dock Steps by WaterDog Adventure Gear
WAG Boarding Steps™ dog dock steps are perfect for those fortunate enough to have a place on the water with a dock and a dog who loves getting in! WaterDog Adventure Gear dog dock steps provide a convenient option for your dog to get out of the water without swimming back to shore or trying to scale a seawall or rip rap. For those with a long pier, our steps will allow your dog to get out of the water close to where they are jumping in. Our dock dock steps also work great for floating swim platforms.
Unlike other dog dock steps, ramps or platforms, WAG dog dock steps provide a pet-friendly, stable and easy-to-use method for your dog to get from the water onto your dock. Our products do not move or change angle when your dog puts their weight on them. The 4″ deep, flat steps with integral toe plate and 4″ step height are suitable for dogs of all sizes and have a slip-resistant top surface. The “space-frame” design results in high open areas in all three directions to minimize the force and effects of surrounding water currents.
We have four models of dog dock steps:
- The DM-12 is designed to mount to the face of a fixed dock or seawall and rest on the lake bottom. The 12-step design provides a vertical rise of 44″ from the bottom step to the top step. The independently adjustable legs accommodate installation depths of up to 6 feet from the lake bottom to the top of the dock or seawall. The DM-12 is designed to be mounted to your dock for the entire swimming season. DM-12 Owner’s Manual
- The patented RDM-10 design provides the flexibility to mount and remove the dog dock ladder quickly and easily. The steps are designed to mount to the top of your dock or seawall and rest against the face of the structure or the dock/raft floats. The 10-step design provides a vertical rise of 36″ from the bottom step to the top step. It weighs approximately 20 pounds. U.S. Patent No. 9,815,529 RDM-10 Owner’s Manual
- The PM-6 is designed to mount on a flat platform and cantilevers into the water without struts. Two pivot mounts are bolted through or into the platform, allowing the step assembly to pivot up out of the water and is easily removable. The 6-step design provides a vertical rise of 24” from the bottom step to the platform. A 2-step extension kit is available as an accessory which increases the vertical rise to 32″. The PM-6 is best suited to platforms less than 12″ (or 20″ with extension kit) above the water. PM-6 and XPM-6 Owner’s Manual
- The patented HSM-6 is designed to mount to a horizontal surface using an upper mounting bar that can be clamped or restrained and has independently adjustable struts that rest against the vertical sides of a structure. The 6-step design provides a vertical rise of 24” from the bottom step to the horizontal surface. A 2-step extension kit is available as an accessory which increases the vertical rise to 32″. The HSM-6 is best suited to surfaces less than 12″ (or 20″ with extension kit) above the water. U.S. Patent No. 9,815,529 HSM-6 Owner’s Manual
Our Dog Dock Steps Selection Guide can be used to help determine the right model for your application. We generally recommend at least 8″ of steps in the water for small dogs, 12″ of steps in the water for medium dogs and 16″ of steps in the water for large dogs to make it easier on your dog to get started. If in doubt on what model is best for your application, please call us.
