Speaker 1: Today, we're gonna take a look at the replacement lock cylinder for the Bolt Toolbox latch. This one codes to the forward side cut key. Now, this will work with Ford vehicles that use the side cut T, and if you want to find out the vehicles that this will work on is if you go to the product page for this part number, at the bottom of the page it'll have a list of vehicles that this fits. Now, you can use this replacement lock cylinder to replace a broken bolt cylinder in your toolbox latch, or change it out to fit a different ignition key. This lock uses your vehicle's ignition key, so you always have the right key with you, and the way you code it to the lock is you just insert your ignition key into the bolt cylinder, turn the key once, and then the lock is permanently coded to your key.This does use a six-plate tumbler side bar to prevent any picking or bumping of the lock. It is a weather-proof automotive quality construction.
It has a nice stainless steel lock shutter to keep out dirt and moisture from getting in the cylinder, and again this does lock automatically when the key is removed. One note I do want to mention is that the bolt locks permanently code to only one vehicle. They cannot be recoded or re-keyed, but that should do it for the review on the replacement lock cylinder for the bolt toolbox latch that codes to the Ford side cut key.

Replaces a broken cylinder in your BOLT toolbox latch or you can change the latch to fit a different ignition key.They worked perfectly for my A.R.E. contractor truck cap. The key used was for a newer FORD(2015) even though top was on a 2000 Ford. So find out what year keys will work if you want one key on your ring. Again key(no pun intended) is it worked for my A R E topper and was 1/3 cost the ARE stealership wanted
Does what it's supposed to. Stick the key in, rotate clockwise and it's coded to your key. Be sure to turn the key all the way, both of my locks had a hitch at about a half turn. Need to turn the key 360 degrees for it to work.
I’m a locksmith with All About Locks and while servicing a world truck in Chico Ca for a customer of mine, one of the locks I ordered didn’t work as intended.
When I called etrailer they immediately sent me out a new one. Excellent customer service. Thank you!
I will defiantly be using them again.
These started to stick and break soon after installation. Need to find an alternative to this product soon. Purchased over a year ago.
Received and worked perfectly.
Replaced an old lock from a used camper shell . We installed the new cylinder and it works like a charm.
Exactly what I needed to rekey my topper. This company is great on keeping you informed on order status as these where back ordered. I had multiple contacts and was aware of the delay in the order. Great customer service and they care about their customers!
Works great! Easy to set up.
Worked great, came quickly and were exactly what I needed.
Great locks and customer service.
Review from a similar Toolbox Cylinder in BOLT Locks
These things work great!!! I like only having to use one key for my vehicle and the locks on my canopy. I did have to modify them slightly for them to work on my canopy, but they work.
Review from a similar Toolbox Cylinder in BOLT Locks
Lock cylinders came just barely on time as estimated. In order to make sure things were done just right, I took it slow on the first replacement, took about 30min, then the next took about 10min and the next 5min, this was in 25° weather with gloves and basic tools. Really all that was needed for my locks was needle nose pliers and an adjustable wrench. My existing key turned ckockwise in a full 360°, then worked perfectly. So nice to not have a separate key!

I bought a used ARE commercial topper and the previous owner did not have the key to the locks. I went online and found locks that looked similiar to the ones on the topper. These Bolt lock replacement cylinders were spot on perfect. I followed the directions that came with the locks and it worked perfectly. I couldn't be happier with this purchase. Thank you etrailer.com for facilitating this transaction.

I have an ARE utility cap that I purchased used without keys. I replaced the old locks with these and they fit perfectly. No modification needed. Put my key in and turned it and now all the locks are keyed to my truck!

Review from a similar Toolbox Cylinder in BOLT Locks
These BOLT locks are absolutely great! Ingenious design that lets you use one key for your truck and the lock. I had purchased a second hand commercial truck topper that had three locks that were keyed to the former owner's truck. The truck topper dealer wanted a whole bunch of money to replace the entire T handles. These solved my problem and the price beat another site!! Very pleased with etrailer! etrailer saved the day and shipping was very fast!

Review from a similar Toolbox Cylinder in BOLT Locks
Excellent idea, excellent product, excellent retailer! There cannot be enough good said of etrailer and the product line they offer. There is no reason to look elsewhere you’ll just be disappointed. As for the product you’ve just deleted the need for a set of keys and this set is now unique to your ignition on the vehicle it’s mounted on. Simple process to change them out 15-30 minutes depending on your skill set. My only hesitation was how well will the lock cylinders work with the ignition key? Perfectly is the answer.

Review from a similar Toolbox Cylinder in BOLT Locks
They were so close to being perfect but they were a little shorter and I had to grind some of the threads off so my end piece would go on far enough.but they work and they are keyed to my truck.
