Hello, neighbors. I'm Steve here at etrailer.com. Today we're looking at the Replacement Key for your Thule Racks and Carriers, specifically, key number N2820. You might be saying, "Steve, how do I know which key do I need" Well, it's pretty simple. Go find your lock core on your rack or carrier, engraved on the front face of that core itself, right next to where the key slides in, you should see an engraved number. That's the number that you're looking for.
That's the number of key that matches that core. Now, Thule does make hundreds of these, so make sure you get that number correct. This particular one, as you can see, is engraved "2820." So, again, it's key number N2820. Folks, you're gonna get one key with purchase. If you need more than one, simply change the quantity in your cart before you make your purchase.
We'll be happy to send as many as you need. I'm Steve with etrailer.com. Thanks for watching. This has been our look at the Replacement Key Number N2820 for the Thule Racks and Carriers. Have a great one.

Broke a key to our sears brand car roof cargo box and found out through etrailer that the lock from a Thule would be compatible. And it is, thanks!
My wife and I found a Sears cargo box at a garage sale for $20 with no key. We found this site and ordered a replacement for 8$ after shipping. Works perfect and received it within 5 business days. Awesome service, will most definitely order from here again.
The key for our Sears cargo carrier (car topper) 2820 broke. I was nervous, but it actually works!! Ordering this key saved us a good amount of money, and the product arrived in a good amount of time and etrailer was great to work with!
Thanks for the help in getting me a key to my car top carrier.The etrailer people are always helpful and knowledgeable on the products they carry. Had acquired a Karrite carrier without a key and knew the people that could help me were at etrailer. Steve
Product works great. I found that etrailer had this item through a fairly detailed Internet search, so kudos to them for populating their search tags appropriately. In addition, the email communication throughout the product fulfillment process always let me know what was going on with the order. As a potential customer, I'm really on the edge of their customer base, but they've done everything right to bring me back again.
We needed replacement keys for a travel cargo carrier ASAP! We called, gave the numbers off the lock and had perfect keys in our hands in less than 48 hrs! We were happy it was so easy and the kids were happy for the leg room.
We lost our key to the car carrier we purchased from a local store. The store couldn't help, so I went online and found E-trailer. The website was super easy to use. I ordered the replacement keys and got them in just a couple days. Very impressive.
I was in need of a key for a cargo carrier I acquired in a moving sale, but it was missing the key. The key code was prominently shown on the front of the lock. When I searched that number etrailer.com popped up first and were the best price so I ordered. The key arrived promptly and worked fine.
Purchased a key for my karite roof cargo box and fitted just right.
Also first key never got to me , stuck in New York some where , called etrailer and talked to Joanne and she sent another one immediately, this one did not get stuck in USPS somewhere. Great service
Great customer service and prompt delivery. I purchased a used cargo carrier missing keys and etrailer saved the day. New keys are a bit tight and I must giggle the lock a bit but they work! Thanks a mil George and team.
I lost the keys to my car top carrier. Online ordering was easy and simple. Follow-up confirmation and notifications were excellent. Product tracking was excellent. I knew when the product order was received, processed, shipped and when I could expect delivery.
I would highly recommend etrailer.com
I am a locksmith who orders from multiple providers. I wish all the providers I deal with were as professional as Etrailer.com.
My transaction with Etrailer.com was perfect. The communication, quick shipping, and follow up on this hard to find key set was impressive.
The keys arrived individually packaged, and they work perfectly on my clients rooftop system.
Thank you for your help!
The key fit so all is good!
The key works just perfectly on my Pepboys Voyager XL roof cargo box. Since it's made by Thule, they just use the same parts. etrailer's knowledge and advice is great. On the other side, etrailer's shipping service is just atrocious!
Keys r always not 100% perfect need little adjustment some time pull back or some time push hardly to open and close the lock.as if u bye new lock .lt works nicely.
I bought a used tow behind motorcycle trailer that did not come with keys for the latches. The storage compartment is a rooftop carrier. I got the numbers off the locks and ordered two keys which were delivered quickly and work perfectly.
We had a Sears Cargo Carrier for the top of a vehicle. Had not used it for several years. The keys were "gone missing."
After getting the key number off of the lock, we were able to search with Google and found the key at Etrailer with a great explanation as to how these keys were identified.
Short story to a great solution, in about 4 days we had the key in hand and now our useless carrier is useful again. By the way, we ordered two keys and will label the spare clearly to store in a safe, memorable location.
Thanks so much Etrailer!

I thought it was a lost cause trying to find a key for my old Thule Sidekick, but I stumbled on this site and this key worked perfectly! It seems to be well made similar to the original keys but is more gold in color than the pictures show. The key fits and turns with no issues to unlock and lock my cargo box. I would highly reccomend this product!!
Works perfectly.
Great gift for a friend. Received a Thule rack carrier from family, but couldn't find the key. Unit was locked. Ordered the key replacement and opened right up. Found the missing keys inside along with some of there old camping gear. Now daily used for all there trips in and out of town with a full vans of kids. Recommend a Thule carrier for anyone with little to no vehicle interior room.
I originally found the car top luggage carrier on a tree lawn. All of the hardware was there but no key to unlock the lock. There was also damage to the two front corners. I found your address on e-bay and ordered the key by the number stamped on the lock. The key worked perfectly and when I was able to open the carrier, I was able to fiberglass the corners (two coats), sand it down and hit it with some matte black paint. We have used the unit on a number of trips with the last one out to Indianapolis for the Indy 500. You helped save this huge piece from ending up in a land fill. Thank you very much. Cheers!
Actually they should show 2 keys because that is what you are getting. Someone may think they are getting only one key without reading.
The customer service I get from etrailer is really fantastic. To me that is one of the most important part of any type of business be it brick and mortar, service type or Internet. I had been a service type business owner for over 30 years so I know first hand. I will continue to deal with etrailer for my trailer needs.

The replacement key worked perfectly first time. Now we can use the box again. This was a very inexpensive and easy solution to our problem. No locksmith would even look at it. Also liked the efficiency of the order and tracking system, as well as the quick response to my first query about a replacement key. All in all a VERY pleasant customer experience!!! Thank you
