Customer Reviews

Replacement Lock Cylinder for Thule Racks and Carriers - N185 - THLOCKN185

Average Customer Rating:  4.9 out of 5 stars   (514 Customer Reviews)


by:

Works exactly as described. For sure I would back up Thule security systems with a hefty additional lock if your are leaving your bike for long in uncertain areas. This is an effective deterrent against any quick grab and run particularly if you are using a couple of cores per bike in your Thule system.



by:

This etrailer site is great. They had the specific parts I needed. And when they didn't, they had suitable backup recommendations that effectively to met my requested timeline. Costumer service was perfect.



by:

I love having all my Thule locking items with the same key.



by:

Excellent. Locks came very quickly - sent out within a day and delivered within a few. Got them today and have installed them. Very happy with your company. Glad to give a 5* rating.

Nice lock works perfect

Installed and works, I had four locks keyed to N013; needed two more for a hullavator, it was great to get two locks keyed to the same locks as the rack; it was shipped the same day it was ordered and arrived (in Canada) 10 days later which was great, it came by mail, least cost option for shipping for small and low cost items.



by:

Locks work great and etrailer customer service is stellar - I knew these were out of stock when buying, and etrailer kept me inform about estimated delivery time.



by:

Lost key so ordered new lick and key set. Also ordered wxyra set of wheel straps. Everything works perfectly! Love the parts and bike rack. Plan to order other replacement parts soon, as backup.



by:

etrailer made it easy to get a universal key to change out the lock cores in my cartop case and provided the instructions on how to do it. Thanks so much!



by:

The Thule bike rack from etrailer is excellent! And the customer service is too! Chelsey S. was my customer service person and she followed through and checked up all the way through. I had lost the lock off the rack but next day my husband found it in the street. Long story short had ordered it already and etrailer was wonderful taking the lock back. Did I say or if I haven't reviewed the bike rack yet I will - so easy to put on, take off myself, etc. Anyway from now on all my trailer stuff will be from this wonderful company.



by:

A friend passed away leaving a car and bicycle rack that were to go separate ways but the lock had no key nor any key numbers. There were 2 new looking Thule N series keys with no lock to be found. A replacement lock was around $75 and switching wafer 2 for wafer 3 made 4/5 wafers fit and seemed good enough until I saw your reasonably priced replacement numbered cylinders. As you can see it worked perfectly.



by:

Etrailer sent me only 3 out of 4 lock cylinders. I contacted customer service and they promptly furnished the missing lock cylinder.



by:

A perfect fit. If they are not made by Thule, you can't tell the difference. I've used aftermarket lock cores and they always fall out. These are very snug and secure. I already had some locks that used the same key, so I ordered these to avoid having multiple keys.

Now I can securely lock my kayak to my securely attached Thule rack on my Sylvan Sport Go camper / trailer (see picture).

You can't go wrong with etrailer.com . They have what you need for trailers, cargo, as well as other accessories.



by:

I was able to get the lock cylinder that matches my existing key and locks. Ordering was easy, shipping was fast, and the price was reasonable. Very impressed!



by:

Thule products are typically solid and I have been a fan. Ordered two key cylinders to match with my equipments for one-key access. One of the cylinder is defected upon received as it would not retain in the hole. Upon closer inspection it is missing a inner tab for retention purpose. (Noticed the empty slot on the barrel in the picture.). I was surprised as this is a product quality escape from Thule. Called etrailer for customer support and was able to arrange for a replacement. I appreciate the good customer support.



by:

Exactly as promised. Original lock cores that allowed me to make all my Thule equipment work off the same key. (FYI, if you haven't done this before, you'll also need a Thule Change Key, sold separately, to swap the lock cores -- got mine from etrailer as well).



by:

Thanks to etrailer I was able to add the lock to my thule bike tray without having additional keys to potentially loose. Price was extremely reasonable and shipping time was as listed.
Thanks etrailer!
Below is my mountain bike securely locked down to my Thule wide mouth bike tray on a 09 dodge journey.

I recently got a Thule roof rack for my new car. I wanted to use just one key for all my locks in already in use on my other roof rack, bike rack and other Thule accessories. Etrailer had the lock cylinder number I needed and I ordered 4 more locks. They shipped them quickly and they arrived. They were installed and function as expected. Etrailer always has what I need at a reasonable price.



by:

I purchased this for my Audi A4 base roof rack system. One of the original locks fell off and this was a PERFECT replacement. The price was fair and the service (correspondence) from etrailer was great! Overall I had a wonderful experience and I wouldn't hesitate to use etrailer.com again.



by:

Easy to install and set up



by:

I got a these for some Thule WingBars we got for our new car. It was quite nice to match the cylinders to those of my Ski rack so they work from the same key. I won't give five stars, because the whole Thule lock system is a bit flimsy and easily defeated by a determined person with a pry bar. But this is exactly what I needed at a good price with good service.

It’s a lock core - not more to say

  • Replacement Lock Core and Key for a Sportrack Cargo Box
    To install a lock core in your Sportrack Aero cargo box that is missing the lock core you would need a lock core like part # THLOCKN185, a key for the core like part # THKEYN185, and a change key to install the core # 853-1251. You would insert the change key into the core, insert the core into the cargo box, and then remove the change key.

  • Availability of Plunger Style Lock for GM Toolbox
    It sounds like you are looking for a replacement lock cylinder like the part # UWSLOCKCH503. This is designed for UWS toolboxes with square paddle handles so I'm not sure about compatibility with your GM toolbox but this lock has a cylinder that has a 0.72" diameter and from the back of the face to the paddle measures 0.63".
