Video Transcript for A Closer Look at the Thule Replacement Lock Cylinder

I'm Matt with etrailer. Today, we're gonna be talking about Thule's replacement lock core. Replacing a lock core is pretty easy to do, and if I had to choose between the key or the lock core, most cases, the lock core's gonna be a little bit easier because the thing with this is a lot of times, these lock cores don't have a number on it depending on when you got yours. So, the newer ones typically don't. Some of the older ones will have it. But if you don't have that number on here or you don't have access to that number, it's gonna be hard to get that matched up to the right key.

So, there's a couple things you can do. If you still have your key, you can just simply look here. Right underneath the handle is gonna give you that number, and then you can find the lock core that matches it. But if you don't have that key and you just need a whole new set, you can actually find a whole new set here on our website. Now, when it comes to installing this, this doesn't take a whole lot.

You do need to make sure you do have a master key. Also, you can find that on our website. The way this works, you'll push that key in here and it will retract the sides and secure it in there. With that in there, now we can lock it down. But there's not a whole lot else to it.

I think these are just gonna be great if you need to replace a lock core or two on your roof rack or any of your other accessories you might have. Now, of course, if you guys have any other questions, let us know here at etrailer. And again, I'm Matt, and thanks for watching.

  • How to Pick Out Correct Replacement Lock Core and Key for Thule Bike Rack Outway Short Arm
    Hey David, we can help you but I would need to know the key number/lock core number from the other locks/keys of your rack so that I can match them up. For example, if the key number you find is N181 then the correct replacement key would be # THKEYN181 and the replacement lock core would be THLOCKN181. Let me know what you have and I'll get you set up with what you'll need.

  • How To Remove That Is Broke Off In A N181 Thule Lock Cylinder
    To remove a broken key from the Lock Cylinder for Thule Racks and Carriers - N181 Item # THLOCKN181, Thule recommends getting a key extraction tool from your local hardware/auto part store.

  • Does Lock and Cable Come with Replacement Locking Ratchet Arm Assembly # 752-1272-001
    The cable comes with the Replacement Locking Ratchet Arm Assembly # 752-1272-001 but the lock core is sold separately. What is the key number that you currently have?

  • Keying Alike a Thule Snug Tite Trailer Hitch Lock and Thule Cable Lock
    You need matching lock cores and keys for the lock and cable. What you can do is get a lock cylinder with the same key number as either the lock or the cable and install it in the device so that the keys will match. For example, if you have lock/key N181 then you would use lock cylinder # THLOCKN181. The key number is also on the face of the lock cylinder. You will also need change key # 853-1251 to remove and install lock cylinders. The other option is to order a pre-made set, # TH450200...
