Installation

Some Yakima accessories come with SKS lock cores but many do not, and that's intentional. Rather than supplying locks and keys for every accessory, requiring you to have separate keys for your roof rack, bike carrier, cargo box, etc., until you've got a ring full of keys, Yakima believes you'd much rather be able to lock and unlock all your accessories with a single key. SKS stands for Same Key System, and these lock cores are sold in a 2-pack, 4-pack, 6-pack, 8-pack, and 12-pack of lock cores, and in each pack all the cores can be operated with a single key. Two keys are actually included with each pack, along with a control key, which is used to initially install the lock core in the accessory, and remove it (as long as it's unlocked) if necessary.

The SKS Lock Cores come with comprehensive, illustrated instructions detailing how to install and remove the lock core. They're backed by a limited lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.

Yakima® Products, of Beaverton, Oregon is one of the world's largest manufacturers of cargo and recreational equipment carrying solutions. Founded 40 years ago in its namesake city, Yakima's guiding principle is that gear should be carried on the outside of the vehicle to make room for more friends inside. To achieve that goal the company makes roof rack systems for any style roof, and an array of roof rack, receiver hitch, trunk lid and hatch, and trailer mounted carriers. Yakima's designers and engineers are outdoor enthusiasts, campers, and travelers just like you, and they listen and learn what other enthusiasts need and want while participating in those activities. The combination of their own personal experience with that of other enthusiasts enables them to create the finest carriers and accessories for bicycles, watercraft, skis & snowboards, and cargo & camping. Yakima products are manufactured using the highest quality materials and the best engineering practices, and Yakima is so confident that you'll be completely satisfied with your purchase that they're backed by a "Love It Till You Leave It" lifetime warranty.

On Lockdown
They were easy to install and I feel safe leaving my bike attached to my car without fear of theft during my post-ride meal with the team.

Awesome Looks, Odd Build Quality
The shield itself looks great, but it is just a glorified piece of plastic that’s held on basically with zip ties. That said the volume of the wind in the cab of the truck is dramatically decreased, I’m pleased with the product in every way, just wish there was a way to lock it onto the bars. I don’t live in the nicest areas, and the name Yakima does draw a little attention.

Great Bracket for Axe/Shovel
Easy to install, no drilling or cutting. Just put together and use. The design fits utilities very snug, no rattling nor shaking. The black color design blends in very well with the rack. I absolutely love this bracket, I will be buying another one soon to install in the other side, and maybe even install one on the inside of the rack too. I strongly recommend this to anyone who buys the Yakima Rack.
