The Problem With Most Retractable Tonneau Covers

Many retractable tonneau covers on the market:

  • Sit on top of the bed rails
  • Block rack mounting points
  • Use oversized canisters
  • Prevent bed rack installation
  • Force you to choose between security and functionality

For overlanders and serious truck owners, that’s not acceptable.

You shouldn’t have to remove your bed cover just to mount a rack system.


Designed for Bed Rack Compatibility

Our manual retractable covers are engineered with:

✔ Low-profile side rails
✔ Rack-friendly mounting design
✔ Compact front canister
✔ Aluminum interlocking slats
✔ Secure locking mechanism

This allows you to run:

  • Bed racks
  • Rooftop tent racks
  • Overland rack systems
  • Crossbars
  • Kayak mounts
  • Recovery board mounts
  • Contractor ladder racks

All without sacrificing tonneau functionality.

This is ideal for Tacoma and Gladiator builds where rooftop tents and rack systems are common.


Built for Canadian Conditions 🇨🇦

Truck owners in Canada need durability.

Our retractable tonneau covers feature:

Heavy-Duty Aluminum Construction

  • Interlocking aluminum slats
  • Increased security over soft roll-up covers
  • Strong load resistance
  • Long-term durability in heat and cold

Lockable & Secure

When fully closed and paired with a locked tailgate, your truck bed becomes a secure storage compartment.

Weather Resistant Design

  • Integrated perimeter seals
  • Drainage channel system
  • Water management tubes
  • Protection from rain, snow, dust, and debris

Perfect for Vancouver Island, BC winters, and cross-Canada road trips.


Why Manual Retractable?

We intentionally chose manual retractable systems for reliability.

Benefits include:

  • No electric motors to fail
  • Lower long-term maintenance
  • Better cold-weather performance
  • Lightweight design
  • Smooth sliding operation
  • Lockable in multiple open positions

Electric retractable covers can struggle in cold climates. Manual systems are simple, proven, and dependable.

Key Benefits of Retractable Tonneau Covers

When comparing roll-up, tri-fold, and retractable covers, retractable offers serious advantages:

1️⃣ Adjustable Opening Positions

Open partially or fully depending on cargo needs.

2️⃣ Full Bed Access

Slides into the canister without blocking rear visibility.

3️⃣ Clean, Low-Profile Appearance

Sits flush with bed rails for a factory look.

4️⃣ Security + Rack Flexibility

This is the big one.

You can run a rooftop tent or rack system while maintaining full bed security.
