5 Custom Features of Dock Steps

Dock steps aren’t just about function—they’re an extension of your yacht’s style and practicality. We manufacture our superyacht dock steps in-house from start to finish, ensuring every detail meets our exacting standards.

The right features can elevate them from a simple boarding aid to a seamless part of your yacht’s design.

Here are five of our favourite custom features that make dock steps both stylish and functional.


1. Hinged lids

It’s customary for shoes to be off onboard, but where do they go for day guests? Our carbon fibre and modern fibreglass dock steps can be conveniently fitted with hinged lids, creating discreet storage for shoes, brollies, and other essentials. No more clutter—just a seamless, built-in solution that keeps everything tidy and within reach.

  • Hidden storage for a sleek, uncluttered entrance
  • Ideal for shoes, umbrellas, and deck essentials
  • Effortless access with smooth, durable hinges

2. Caulked logos

Make your mark with a caulked logo or custom wording on the treads. Whether it’s your yacht’s name, crest, or a design of your choice, this adds a bespoke touch while maintaining a premium look. Custom branding isn’t just for caulking; we can also CNC your logo into our Pack Flat Dock Steps.

  • Fully customisable branding
  • Durable caulking that blends seamlessly with the treads
  • A subtle yet striking way to personalise your yacht

3. Custom paintwork

Why settle for standard when you can have a completely custom finish? Our dock steps can be painted in any colour you choose—a perfect match for your yacht’s scheme. Our spray technicians love a challenge, so whether you want classic tones or bold hues, we’ll make it happen.

  • Unlimited colour choices
  • Perfectly matched to your yacht’s colour scheme
  • Professional marine-grade spray finish for durability

4. Stainless steel handrail

A stainless steel handrail isn’t just a practical safety feature—it’s a statement of quality. Designed to provide extra stability when boarding, it also adds a refined, polished look to your dock steps. Built from marine-grade stainless steel, it’s corrosion-resistant and built to last.

  • Increased stability for guests and crew
  • Premium marine-grade stainless steel
  • Sleek, polished finish for a high-end look
