Does it require drilling to install?No, this cover mounts with clamps inside the bed rails and does not require drilling into the truck bed.
How deep is the canister when the cover is retracted?The canister sits at the front of the bed and is approximately 7.25 inches deep, which preserves most of the usable bed space.
Is this cover waterproof?The cover uses hidden seals to resist water and debris intrusion, but it is designed as weather-resistant rather than fully submersible or waterproof.
How much weight can this cover support?The cover has a rated load capacity of 125 pounds when closed.
Can the cover be locked in a partially open position?Yes, the ratchet-style locking system allows the cover to stop and lock at quarter, half, or fully open positions along the bed rail.
Does this cover work with a factory cargo management track?Installation typically requires removing or discarding the factory cargo track, so the cover is not designed to work alongside OE bed rail accessories.

Install Instructions
- Remove or discard the factory cargo management track if equipped, per the included instructions.
