Best Folding, Locking Bed Cover
 
Hi All,

I am looking for a tri or quad fold locking bed cover for my '19 Sierra Denali 2500 HD. Any suggestions on brand and model?

Much appreciated!

Thanks,
Dan

Nice truck!! Does it shut off when you stop?

I would try this one...

One of the better ones allot of trunk owners are using. Did you look into GMC hard tri fold before you bought the truck. How long is your bed? I don't know if locking the tail gate is enough of a lock, if you want a locking cover then you may have to go hard plastic?

Mine is GMC factory tri fold and keeps everything super dry. Do you have a spray on bed liner?

A lot of the locking covers have their locks on the top of the cover which exposes them to freezing up from snow and ice if you live in a cold climate. Not much fun dealing with that every day.

Hi Dave, likewise. Cool rig.

No, it does not shut off when I stop. I have a 6.5 ft bed.

Verne - I live in NY so yes, cold climate is a concern too. That is the main reason why I want a bed cover.

Thanks,
Dan

I bought mine direct from Bakflip back in 2014 and have no issues, it’s on a 2015 2500HD Denali. I just lock my tail gate, flip the lid closed and everything stays dry and secure.

Hey Dan,

Not a folding bed cover, but I've had a Retrax retractible covers on my last two trucks and would buy one again. They are made in Grandforks ND, so are engineered for cold weather, the lock has a cover to seal from moisture. I would recommend the aluminum slat option, power retracting and bed lighting are options also. The only downside is the space taken at the from by the roll up enclosure.

Txt me if you have any questions.

Good luck whatever you choose!!

Friend of mines daughter has a retractable cover on her work truck and might be the brand, but it seems to get water in the box it rolls up into. The box has a drain tube and it comes off and let's water into the bed. We first thought something had rolled into the drain tubes and pulled them off. Last I heard the bed was wet again and I think he said the drain tubes are still attached. She works for Milwaukee tools and water has soaked the bags her tools were in

BW - I was considering that option and even saw some YouTube videos on it but prefer a folding hard plastic unit. Thanks for the info though!

Now we’re talking... can you explain how the lock works? Is it integrated into lock for the tailgate? Thank you!

Wow that’s a real shame and is what I’m trying to avoid. My truck came with bed liner from GM and I have a real nice mat coming to further protect it.

That is a nice one too, Frank... Does it lock?

Thanks,
Dan
