Tool Box Tonneau Covers

Carrying a bed mounted tool box is a necessity for most tradesmen, but it’s also the storage unit of choice for many owners who don’t make a living with their trucks. Stowage space inside the cab can be scarce and a cross bed tool box provides a secure, weathertight, and easily accessible place for items like jumper cables, tie-down straps, emergency equipment, and towing gear. You may think having such a tool box means you have to do without the cargo protection, security, and style of a tonneau cover. But if you take a moment to check out the many products on this page, you’ll see that’s not the case.

Our tonneau cover manufacturers know that for many of you having a bed mounted tool box is an everyday part of truck ownership. That’s why they’ve sized some of their most popular tonneau covers to fit your truck bed with a standard width cross bed tool box installed. Choose from roll up, folding, and hinged tonneau styles. And if you’ve been thinking of buying a tool box and a tonneau cover, there’s no need to source them separately because we also offer retractable tonneau cover/tool box combos, and many of our full bed tonneau covers have optional boxes that hide away underneath the cover.

Our roll up tool box tonneaus are made from heavy-duty vinyl that won’t crack, shrink, stretch or fade, regardless of the weather. They’re easy to install, with no drilling required, and convenient to use, rolling up to expose your truck bed in just seconds. Just as quickly the cover rolls back, attaching to the side rails with hook and loop or snap fasteners, to protect your bed and cargo from the weather and to give your truck a sleek look. Covers are available with separate support bows and with bows that roll up with the cover. Once closed, the cover can’t be opened when your tailgate is shut and locked. These covers feature an advanced sealing design at the tool box/tonneau cover junction, for a weathertight seal and perfect fit.

A folding tool box tonneau is a great choice when you want fast and simple installation and quick bed access. They’re available with panels of soft vinyl supported by lightweight aluminum frames, and with polypropylene core hard panels covered with vinyl or a matte finish, automotive-grade thermoplastic skin. Both type covers will deter theft by concealing cargo but a hard cover will provide the most cargo security. They come fully assembled and attach to the bed easily with hand tightened clamps; no drilling or tools are required. The rear panel pops open easily when you want quick bed access, and the panels can be folded and stacked, and secured in place with buckle straps, when more cargo room is needed. These covers are also engineered to provide a watertight seal against the tool box.

The hinged tool box tonneaus we offer are made of heavy-duty, weather resistant vinyl attached to a lightweight, sturdy aluminum frame. They open easily with one hand and remain in position supported by gas struts when you want access to the bed, and close using the handy pull strap; no rolling or folding required. And when you want full bed access, the cover can be easily removed thanks to the quick release hinges and snap release struts. You also have the option of leaving the aluminum frame in place and rolling up the vinyl cover. The covers are secured to the frame in two ways, with snaps or with a snapless, peel and seal securing system that provides a smooth finished look. Like our other style covers, hinged tonneaus have a watertight seal at the tool box.

Retractable tonneau covers are the latest advancement in tonneau cover design, combining ease of use with maximum cargo protection and security. Lightweight yet strong, double-wall aluminum rails are joined in flexible weathertight connections that together form a rugged bed cover when closed. When opened the cover glides easily in tracks mounted below the bed rails into a canister at the front of the bed, and can be stopped and locked in position in increments when full bed access isn’t needed. The aluminum rails feature a textured, scratch resistant powder coated finish, and a sophisticated water drainage system is included to keep water from collecting and causing damaging corrosion. And as if these features weren’t enough the retractable covers we offer come with a heavy-duty tool box.

Two size tool boxes are available, 10” and 20” wide, and both sit only 5 ½” above the bed rails. Standard tool box features include sturdy metal construction, gas struts for lid support and quick opening, premium sealing against water and dust intrusion, and OEM grade locking mechanism. Optional features include remote keyless locking, built-in LED lighting, stainless steel tool trays, chrome handles, and an exclusive LINE-X abrasion, impact, and UV resistant finish. With its versatility, toughness, security, and low profile good looks, this toolbox/retractable tonneau cover combo can’t be beat. It’s the ideal setup for a work truck, but it can also be the perfect addition for any pickup. Only minor drilling is required during an installation that can be accomplished in less than two hours.
