Vehicle Rack Locks

Locks provide the element of security to almost any existing rack system or carrier. They are the optional add-on component that allow you to leave both your rack and your gear unattended on your vehicle. Lock Cylinders made by either Thule or Yakima, fit all of their lockable components and can be purchased in various quantities with the added feature that all locks can be opened with the exact same key. Cable Locks are available from both Thule and Yakima and can be used to lock larger items to your rack like kayaks or canoe. They can also be wrapped around hitch mounted bike racks for that added bit of security. Locking Hitch Pins serve two main purposes, they lock your hitch mounted rack to your vehicle's receiver hitch and they help stabilize the mast to help eliminate wobble.
