Product Details

M-Series™ Hard Manual Retractable Tonneau Cover by Roll-N-Lock®. A thick vinyl cover backed with a solid frame made up of individual aluminum slats provides the versatility of a roll-up soft cover with a hard shell that is difficult to penetrate. A built-in tailgate lock completes the extremely high level of security this cover offers, and a powerful 38-inch torsion spring allows effortless opening. Cover can be locked in place at 1/4-, 1/2-, or 3/4-open positions. Compact housing box mounts well above bed floor level.

The M-Series™ Retractable Tonneau Cover offers a hard metal shell of protection from the elements and thieves without the cumbersome rigidity of a 1-piece solid cover or bulk of a folding design. How? Advanced engineers at Roll-N-Lock have created a tonneau cover with a frame made of many interlocking aluminum slats. They hook together flexibly – a setup which allows them to fold around a spindle when the cover is opened, and allows them to align in series and lock in place when the cover is closed. – A plush black vinyl cover top layer covers this flush, near-flat metal shield for added style, weather protection, and security.

Because both layers of the cover roll up together into an enclosed box, the need to deal with fussy snaps, lash down straps, and cross bars is eliminated. Plus, there are no excess parts to remove and stow. Unlike the storage housings of many roll-up tonneau covers, the M-series container has been designed with extremely compact dimensions. It mounts at bed rail level, and protrudes downward no more than 8 inches to leave a great deal of room underneath for bed area use. When the tonneau cover is in the closed position, security for your gear is enhanced with a built-in tailgate lock and an aluminum frame that attaches to bed rails with hidden clamps underneath. Should you wish to add an organizer underneath your Tonneau Cover to keep cargo from shifting, Roll-N-Lock offers an integrated Cargo Manager that is sold separately.

This Is An Excellent Cover!
This is a great cover. I would definitely buy it again. It took about 3 hours to install, but it’s not difficult. I installed it myself. But it would have been a little easier to do with two people. One piece of advice, definitely follow the video installation instructions rather than the paper instructions. It makes it a lot easier.

Great Bed Cover!
This is the 2nd Roll-N-Lock cover that I have owned. The 1st one served me well for over 10 years. I just bought a new truck and there was no question which cover I was going to buy. The installation instructions were easy to follow and the cover is a perfect fit.

Good Cover
Well constructed cover. Installation was fairly easy and appearance is nice. However, it's not water tight. Overall, a very good cover, the locking mechanism works well. If you're not looking for a waterproof cover than I would highly recommend this cover.

Roll-N-Lock M Series Tonneau Cover
Product looks great. The only problems were the directions that came with the product. They were the absolutely worst directions I have ever seen and I have put a lot of things together where I had to follow the directions. I contacted a customer rep from CARiD and he sent me a set of directions which was specifically for my model truck. They were much plainer and easy to follow. If I had had them to begin with, there would be no complaint what so ever. In the end, very pleased with the product. Just waiting for the first time I drive in a good rain to see if it leaks.

Roll-N-Lock 2014 Silverado High Country
The Roll-N-Lock cover seems to be well designed, the proof will be in its long term use. I installed this myself in about two hours. There were a few screws missing, but I replaced all of the nuts and bolts with stainless steel, so this was not a problem. The instructions are pretty clear and made the installation go smoothly. When completed and all cover panels are attached, it looks fantastic. I love the way it works and the way it works. By that I mean, the way it catches at different locations, the function of the latching mechanism and the smoothness of the sliding action. I have had the old snap on style, a velcro style and an are hardcover. The Roll-N-Lock is the best of all worlds. It locks like a hardcover with the versatility of a cheap roll and tie tarp. The only thing I am not crazy about is the latching strip that gets mounted to the tailgate. It stands 1/2 inch proud of the tailgate surface. It is beautifully coated with a black wrinkle finish that is going to be ruined by lumber and other cargo. Overall, I am thrilled, it locks, it keeps my cargo safe, dry and clean and it looks great on my truck, great addition to my vehicle, well worth the price!

Great Tonneau
I think its still the best all round tonneau cover. Looks great works great and they have upgraded it a bit from the original design. I had a couple scuffs on the exposed trim (side rails) and tailgate extrusion right from the factory because we noticed right away when unpacking (carefully by the way). This we bought for my friend and we put it on anyways, but more care should be taken in factory or shipping dept.

Great
If you're looking for a tonneau cover you can get out of the way for taller loads and still looks good and safe. There is no match for the roll-n-lock. I owned one for 10 years on my old truck. New truck got to have one most practical cover period, thanks.

Roll N Lock on Silverado 2014
I wanted something strong and good looking. This cover works and looks great. It took sometime to install but it was worth it. I saved over a $100 by purchasing online and installing myself.
