    Purchased a roll-and-lock in San Diego for my 96' Dodge long bed. It lasted many years for both work and play. with a slight mod to the rails attached a quick release full size truck rack for my work. I liked being able to leave my tools locked under the cover after a long day installing satellite. When on vacation, it protected my camping gear and Reese 20K 5th wheel hitch when parked at an RV park. Just roll the cover back and hook up the 5th wheel.

    What part can’t you open? The cover will lock to the tailgate.So that has to be unlatched. Just move it up away from the tailgate a couple inches. The cover must be unlocked to get it to slide open. Did it work before? Clean the tracks on the side. Lightly lube the side rails . A dry silicone spray or better yet a dry lubricant Mack’s from NAPA. Works well. This may sound silly but is the latch unlocked? If this doesn’t help. Call Rolnlock.

    I have a 2017 Tundra. The biggest issue with tonneau covers the inability to install bed racks either because the rack verticle rack supports are angled, so tonneau covers like BakFlip can't open, or because for rolling racks, the rack on the bed side covers the mounting holes. Does this rack cover the mounting holes or hinder adding an overbed rack system?

    Zak Moore the best truck bed rack and truck bed cover combination is the Retrax XR and the Yakima overhaul HD. You can see a video of the Tundra with both installed here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/aqp71aqjgMjQj6w.html The rack integrated rail system allows you to add rack accessories and eye-bolts so you can tie items down by sliding the rings. The Retrax XR cover starts at $1399. The Yakima truck bed racks range from $700-$1000. You’ll like the ability to adjust the overhaul HD to different height levels. It’s a heavy duty off-road truck bed rack. Very well built design Let me know if you want me to send you pricing. We are a local shop in Arizona but we offer free shipping to most areas.

    The retrax xr series works with Yakima, Thule and rhino accessories. The tracks are integrated into the side rails. If you are planning on camping, using it for ladder rack, bike racks or any other type of rack system the retracts is hands down the winter for this category. Some manufacturers let you add a rack as long as your rails have enough space to fit where the holes are, but that would be an add-on and not all of them are compatible with that. The retrax has the tracks built in, so you can take different racks on and off and interchange them as you please.

    I have a vinyl cover that rolls up and tucks into the back of the bed with latches. It weighs little, and when closed, it attaches with Velcro to top of the bed rails and locks in place behind the tailgate. No need for drains because water does not get into the bed. It’s lasted me 15 years and cost $500. I have no need to load weight on top of my cover, and it takes up very little room near the cab.

I have a console safe where I lock the gun, wallet or her purse temporarily while I shop. The bed can be broken into easily. That’s why I use the fabric/vinyl roll up cover ($600). Keeps out water, snow, debris and prying eyes. Moving south away from the NE states helps lower theft quotient. Had a costly Roll N Lock which got water logged and ate up some bed space.
