Roll N Lock @ Roof Rack Centre Melbourne

The latest edition to our line up of quality products at Roof Rack Centre Melbourne is the Roll N Lock retractable truck bed cover.

The description from there website describes it the best.

"Unlike rigid covers the Roll-N-Lock has redefined the rules for truck bed security.  Whilst it provides complete security for your cargo, it can be easily retracted to enable the truck bed to be used for carrying any large items that you wouldn’t otherwise be able to carry.  With this cover you simply retract it when you don't need it.
The Roll-N-Lock cover is constructed from rigid inter-locking aluminium slats that are over-laminated with a heavy-duty, UV stable vinyl.  The cover simply retracts back under spring tension into a canister at the front of the truck bed, or it can be part-closed."

"Multiple Catch Positions: The Roll-N-Lock cover utilises a simple lock lever that enables you to set the cover closed at 1/3,  2/3 or fully closed positions. By pulling a simple draw strap you can position the cover exactly where you want it.
There are a lot of reasons why the Roll-N-Lock is regarded as the “first in class” of retractable covers worldwide; security, installation and time-proven performance.
Roll-N-Lock covers have a centre key position and four locking catches that lock into the mounting rail as well the tail gate of the truck.  It’s rigid, tough construction makes it extremely difficult to break into.  The Roll-N-Lock effectively provides a tailgate lock when the cover is closed.
Installation is quick and easy utilising clamps that attach the roller tracks to the side rails of the truck bed.  The housing for the retracted cover is very compact (approximately 200mm deep) which means there is very little loss of cargo space and long items can still be stored beneath the canister for the full length of the truck bed."

A great accessory to use with the Roll N Lock is the Cargo Manager

"The Cargo Manager is an optional accessory that makes the perfect companion to your Roll-N-Lock cover.  The Cargo Manager is a movable bed divider that fits the mounting rails of the Roll-N-Lock cover.  This load-divider can be re-positioned every 75mm along the length of the truck bed to manage and contain cargo items. It can be flipped up into horizontal position if long items need to be placed in the cargo space beneath.
This dynamic product combination gives you not only the ability to cover and secure the contents of the truck bed, but also prevent objects from shifting around in the bed when driving."

in my opinion,great for loading your kayak on any vehicle but particularly a high vehicle such as a
Toyota Landcruiser or Nissan Patrol.Your kayak is loaded from the side of your vehicle at
waist level & gas struts help you raise & lower a kayak that can weigh up to 35kg.This can all be
done by one person very easily.

The adjustable cradles can accomodate a kayak up to 85cm wide & 35kg in weight.The dual
loading arms on the Hullavator lower the kayak down from the racks by up to 100cm to allow
for quicker loading & unloading.This feature also helps prevent back injury & keeps the kayak
away from the side of your vehicle to prevent damage to your vehicle.
