Stable Sports Four Step Mounting Block
Four steps up, so you're level with the saddle
At 32½ inches, the tallest mounting block we sell: three 18-inch-wide steps and an 11-inch-deep top platform in molded polyethylene, on six rubber feet, with a grab handle on the back for moving it. Black, Green or Royal.
1
32½ inches tall
Four steps put your foot level with the stirrup on a tall horse, so you mount from above instead of hauling on the saddle and the horse's back.
2
A top step you can stand on
The top platform is 11 inches deep by 18 wide, room for both feet while you sort reins. The three lower steps are 8 inches deep by 18 wide.
3
Molded plastic, rubber feet
One-piece polyethylene that does not rot, splinter or rust, on six rubber feet that keep it from sliding on concrete or a wash rack.
4
27 pounds, with a handle
A grab handle on the back lets you carry it to the arena or the trailer. 37 inches long, 19 wide. Black, Green or Royal.

I have a 17. 1 warmblood and I am 5’2” and this 4 step alievates the extreme stretch I had to perform in order to mount him from a three step mounting block. My taller trainer also uses it. It will save yours and your horses back!
★★★★★
I purchased the mounting block for my wife. Recovering from an accident where she was thrown from a horse, she had a rod inserted into her femur and needed a bit of help to be able to lift her leg over the saddle. The height of the Burlington Sports Four Step Mounting Block works great. It allows her to mount more easily and continue riding — the great passion of her life. Thank you.

Easier on your hips, easier on your horse's back

The Stable Sports Four Step block puts you 32½ inches up, the tallest block we sell, so your foot meets the stirrup on a tall horse instead of hauling toward it.

It is one-piece molded polyethylene on six rubber feet, 37 by 19 inches at the base, 27 pounds, with a grab handle molded into the back for carrying it to the arena. Black, Green or Royal. Set it on firm, level ground.

Reviews
Perfect
"Received an neatly packaged. Received on time. Easy to assemble. Love it."
Perfect Mounting Block. . .
"The height is perfect for 17hh+ horses, particularly during dismount, which was the main purpose of the purchase. The height is a bit awkward at first (it's tall!); however, you get used to mounting, at level, with your horse. Overall, exactly what was needed and highly useful for those extra tall horses."
Well-made and good height
"Well-made, and a great height for my warm blood. A couple of the screws were difficult to reach, but it all worked out."
I love this
"I have a 17. 1 warmblood and I am 5’2” and this 4 step alievates the extreme stretch I had to perform in order to mount him from a three step mounting block. My taller trainer also uses it. It will save yours and your horses back!"
Easy mounting now
"I'm 70 years old and mounting my 15+ hand gelding was getting harder from my 3 step block. The 4 step makes it easier getting on and off. I ordered the blue color and I love it. And I don't have to worry if it sits out in the weather since its high density plastic, not wood."
Good height
"I have a knee injury and need more height to mount. Good height for my mare who is 16. 1, I barely need to use my left stirrup at all."
Good for those very tall horses or riders that don’t have a lot of strength
"A couple of things that keep me from giving this five stars and from saying it’s “great!” are the handle placement and material quality. The handle to move it anywhere is on the front, which makes it really inconvenient. All of the mounting blocks I’ve purchased in the past have had handles on the back, making them easy to grab and drag or lift by wrapping your hand around the backside of the top step. But with this mounting block, that's not the case. It’s very cumbersome to move, especially since it’s not lightweight, so you can’t just lift it and carry it around easily. My second issue is that the plastic feels a bit cheaper—less sturdy—than the resin polymer used in the other two I own. It might be thinner, but it still seems like it’s not as durable."
Four Step Mounting Block
"I have a beautiful Quarter Horse/Percheron cross that I absolutely cannot climb up on from the ground! I purchased this mounting block because I was tired of mounting him from a picnic table! This mounting block makes getting on my big horse so much easier for this 70 year old woman!!"
Great mounting block

Q&A
- How much weight can it safely hold? Do the 8” steps feel deep enough?
- Hello Kelly, They are universally rated for a weight limit of 300 lbs, aligning with industry standards for heavy-duty plastic barn steps. The depth of the step is a comfortable tread for the steps.
