Above Ground Pool Stairs/Steps Build

I love my little AGP, but wasn't fond of using the Intex ladder that came with the pool. Our yard isn't big so a full deck would have been overkill, plus would have looked funny since the pool is 4ft tall and the fence right next to it is only 8ish.

I wanted something that was not permanent, and very sturdy. I am pleased with the results..

Basic base for the deck portion


Leveling it out


Side view finished


Front view finished


Little overlap to stop people from stepping on the rail


Facebook Marketplace $50 find, that came with a second set of stairs that we sold for $50


Whole pool view

Fixed!

Doing this from my phone, pictures didn't embed correctly. Will fix when I get home.

Great job. Watch that first step, it's a doozy, lol
I really like the bamboo skirt also!

Thanks! I saw the bamboo on another post here last year and had to copy

I love the steps and the reed fencing. I did that fencing on my last pool.

Nice work on the stairs!

What brand of steps are those?

Stairs look real nice. You did some fine work there. I would consider adding a railing along the stairs for safety.
