Tailgate locks tonneau covers

Lock the tailgate so a thief can't drop it and slide cargo out from under your cover — the weak point most covers leave open.

Not sure which cover fits?

Start with your truck, not the product. Check which cover types fit your bed and the gotchas, then come back and pick.

Buying a tonneau cover — FAQ

How do I choose the right tonneau cover type?

Match the cover type to what you value most. Soft roll-ups are the cheapest with the most open-bed access; hard folding covers are the best all-rounders for security, weather and flexible access; retractable covers give premium stop-anywhere access and security but cost bed length and money; hinged one-piece lids look the sleekest and lock the tightest but only suit shorter beds and low cargo. Use the filters above to compare by type, then check fitment for your truck.

Are the prices shown here?

We show a price band ($, $$ or $$$) so you can compare value at a glance, but tonneau cover prices change often and vary by truck and bed length. Use the "Check price" button on each product to see the current price on the retailer.

How do I know a cover will fit my truck?

Tonneau covers are sold per truck and bed length, so the same model fits many trucks but you must order the right version. Run your truck through the Fitment Checker to see which cover types fit and the gotchas, and use the Bed Size Finder to confirm your exact bed length before you buy.

Do I need a tailgate lock with a tonneau cover?

Often yes. Many covers lock to the bed but rely on a closed tailgate for security — if a thief can drop the tailgate, they can slide cargo out from under the cover. A tailgate lock closes that gap, and some code to your existing truck key so there is no second key to carry.
