The Fiamma Level Up provides three height options at 4cm, 7cm, and 10cm to accommodate different degrees of ground unevenness when pitching your motorhome, campervan, or caravan. Manufactured from UV-resistant polyethylene in a grey finish, these levelling ramps resist degradation from sunlight exposure and maintain structural integrity without the risk of splitting like traditional wooden blocks. Each ramp weighs 1.45kg and measures 57cm long by 20cm wide, with a maximum height of 13cm. The ridged surface features a non-slip finish that grips vehicle tyres securely, working alongside anti-slip screws fitted to the base to prevent movement on various ground surfaces.
What weight capacity do I need for motorhome levelling ramps?
The Fiamma Level Up supports vehicles with a maximum axle weight of 5 tonnes, making them suitable for coachbuilt motorhomes, larger campervans, and caravans. This 5-tonne per axle capacity covers most leisure vehicles in the 3,500kg weight class and provides headroom for fully loaded touring configurations including passengers, water, and equipment.
These ramps come as a pair (sold separately or as Kit Level Up which includes a Level Bag storage solution), allowing you to level either the left or right side of your vehicle depending on pitch conditions. The stepped design reduces strain on handbrakes compared to continuous slope ramps, as tyres rest securely in the height-appropriate cradle rather than holding position on an incline. Compatible accessories include the Fiamma Anti-Slip Plate for paved surfaces, Chock Level for additional security, and Level Plate for soft ground protection. The Level Up works across motorhomes, van conversions including VW Transporters and Mercedes Vito models, campervans, and 4x4 vehicles where ground clearance allows access to the step levels.

Frequently Asked Questions
The standard Level Up measures 57cm x 20cm x 13cm with three height levels (4cm, 7cm, 10cm) and supports 5 tonnes per axle, whilst Level Up Jumbo measures 58cm x 24cm x 14cm with two larger step platforms (6cm, 11cm) and supports 8 tonnes per axle. The Jumbo's wider 24cm width accommodates larger tyres on coachbuilt motorhomes and twin-axle caravans more easily.
You need one pair of levelling ramps as sold, placed under the wheels on whichever side requires lifting. Most pitches only need levelling on one side (left or right) to compensate for cross-slope. If you're levelling front-to-back as well, you'd need a second pair for the other axle, though most motorhome owners find one pair sufficient for typical site conditions.
Stepped ramps like the Level Up create secure cradles that hold tyres in position without relying entirely on the handbrake, reducing stress on your vehicle's braking system during extended stays. Continuous slope ramps require precise positioning and the vehicle constantly wants to roll backwards. The stepped design also makes height selection clearer and prevents over-levelling.
The Level Up works on grass and soft ground, though the Fiamma Level Plate accessory provides additional surface area to prevent sinking on saturated or very soft terrain. The standard ramp base distributes weight across 57cm x 20cm, which handles firm grass pitches well. For prolonged stays on soft ground or during wet conditions, the Level Plate attachment offers extra stability.
Always drive forwards onto levelling ramps. Reversing can cause ramps to shoot out from under tyres or result in the vehicle going over the top and becoming wedged. Drive slowly in first gear, ideally with someone guiding you, and stop when the tyre settles into the desired step height. Apply the handbrake and leave in gear before stepping out.
UV-resistant polyethylene resists degradation from sunlight exposure and maintains flexibility better than standard plastics. Owners typically report 8-10 years of service before any deterioration appears, primarily when used repeatedly on hardcore or gravel pitches. Regular inspection for surface cracks and cleaning with mild detergent helps extend lifespan. The material performs better than wooden alternatives which warp and split.
Compatible accessories include the Anti-Slip Plate which prevents ramps skidding on paved or tarmac surfaces during mounting, Chock Level which provides additional wheel security without handbrake reliance, Level Plate for soft ground protection, and Level Bag for clean storage when not in use. These accessories work with Level Up, Level Pro, and Level System Magnum models.
Place a spirit level on a flat internal surface (worktop or floor) pointing across the motorhome width to identify which side needs lifting. The bubble movement indicates required lift amount. Most club sites need 4cm or 7cm, whilst festival fields or sloping pitches might require the full 10cm height. Drive onto the appropriate step, check the spirit level, and adjust if needed.
