Features to know about

Low-Profile Look: 1" Sleek Design

Some roll-up covers can look bulky or sit too high above the bed rails, but the Lorado keeps things clean and flush. It sits only 1" above the truck box and features the Access Slantback design that angles toward the tailgate for a smooth, streamlined look. The aerodynamic shape helps reduce wind drag and can improve gas mileage by up to 10 percent while giving the truck a sharp finish.

Full Bed Use: Roll-Up Function

When you need to haul taller or bulky items, you don’t have to take the cover off. The soft vinyl top peels back from the Velcro seals on the sides and rolls up easily, storing neatly behind the cab with premium storage straps and clips. Even rolled up, it stays secure and out of the way, so you can use the full bed whenever you need without blocking visibility.

All-Weather Protection: Double-Coated, Reinforced Vinyl

The Lorado cover handles tough weather from blazing sun to snow and ice. It’s built from double-coated, reinforced UV-blocking vinyl that won’t fade or crack. The material stays flexible down to -40°F, so it keeps its shape in any season. The Element weather seal behind the cab and reinforced vinyl flap at the tailgate help keep rain, snow, and dirt out of the bed.

Secure and Easy Operation: AutoLatch II and Tailgate Lock Compatibility

Keeping gear safe is simple with the AutoLatch II dual locking system. When the cover is closed, both side latches automatically engage to hold it tight. Opening it is just as easy—pull the release cord with one hand and you’re set. Add a tailgate lock (sold separately) for secure cargo storage without losing normal tailgate operation.

Simple Fit and Adjustment: XT-Dial and Tight Bite Clamps

Getting the right fit doesn’t take tools or guesswork. The XT-Dial tension adjuster lets you fine-tune cover tension by turning an easy-grip dial at the front of the cover. The contoured, black powder coated aluminum rails mount inside the bed for a clean look and rust resistance, while Tight Bite clamps lock onto the rail ridges for a firm, reliable hold. The setup keeps side rails free for stake pockets, tie-downs, or rack accessories.

by:

This is the 3rd Access cover I have purchased. I feel that the ability to roll it all the way up to the window is the best option, still allowing me full bed access. The sun does its part to beat it up, but regular maintenance keeps it looking good.



by:

great service, easy to order and had big heavy parts and everything shipped free! shipping was very quick. I have already started recommending etrailer.com to others



by:

Directions addendum for Honda Ridgeline are not clear and comprehensive.



by:

This is the second truck cover that I've purchased and I am very happy. Both me trucks have great bed covers!



by:

Love my tonneau cover. This is the second truck I have purchased one of these for--I liked the first one so much I purchased another. It keeps thing in the bed dry, but is easy to roll up when I haul taller items. I highly recommend it!



by:

Not quite what I wantedThe ordering process from etrailer was flawless as usual, but the cover wasn't exactly what I wanted.

The quality of the product is nice and the installation wasn't difficult at all, I was able to do it with the 'help' of my 3 year old son.

But I ordered a soft cover because I wanted to retain as much of the use of the bed as possible, but the cover rails install inside the bed rails and are about 3 inches wide. The instructions say not to lean anything against the rolled up cover or the rails :(

I think I'll have to take the rails off the first time I get a load of gravel so they don't get damaged.

This is my first cover so I don't know if this is typical.

Last one lasted 10 years on my old truc k.

I ordered a Tonneau Cover for my new truck. It was shipped directly from the manufacturer and arrived in a few days. The box was damaged resulting in some parts be lost. Jenny B. of etrailer was a tremendous help and my replacement parts arrived in a few days. The product and service were exceptional.

I just installed the Access Lorado Roll-up cover on a 2019 Honda Ridgeline. This is a well made product and I am delighted with the purchase. The box arrived from the factory within a week of ordering from etrailer.com.

Self-help installation was hassle free for one person using printed instructions and on-line videos. Make sure you pay close attention to installation of the tension adjuster so that the notches on both fiberglass reinforced plastic components engage the side rail properly (both components slide under the side rail until the notch is engaged).

The cover fits like a glove out-of-the box, and it looks amazing! I look forward to exposing it in all weather conditions but it appears to be reasonably watertight.

The box included a small package called the sound and vibration dampening kit that includes velcro hooks to better hold the rear cross rod to the rail, and rubber seals to dampen sound between the cover and two rear cross rods. I'll install this kit later if I notice a concern but I am impressed that Access would include it, likely in response to customer feedback.



by:

Self-installed a great roll-up cover, excellent. Directions aren't quite idiot proof but managed to figure them out. Very happy with the product. Had one on a previous truck, excellent as well.



by:

Access Lorado is a great cover! I have two trucks both with this cover. It allows easy access to my bed and the ability to haul large items without removal including a slide in truck camper. Great cover, great price.



by:

I have had this Tonneau cover for over a year now, one of the best truck accessories I have ever purchased. Installation was easy, the latch mechanism works great, very durable tonneau material. Fast and free delivery. Highly recommend this cover and Etrailer!

I was delighted with the ease of installation and operation of the Access Lorado Tonneau cover. With previous covers I have had, closing them up was enough of a chore that I would leave it open until sure that I was not going to need access to my truck bed for a while. With the Lorado, I can open and close it with one hand and have no hesitation closing up. My only negative experience with this cover was the quality of bolts used in the rail clamps. The plating was rough and bound up when tightening so it seemed tight when it was not. I am sure it worked great in the Muppet labs with good quality bolts, but the cheap ones that I got were a bit of a pain. Lubrication and running them in and out a few times helped smooth out the rough spots after i figured out why the clamps were falling off.

45min install ,perfect fit ,completely water proof ,secure, improved gas mileage, love it ! Had one on a previous truck, and knew I had to get one for my new Nissan Titan XD. Thanks guys .



by:

This is a great bed cover. It fits my Ranger perfectly and has a good design to keep out almost all rain from getting into the bed. It's good to be able to park at a mall or restaurant and know what ever is in the bed is relatively safe. The videos for installation were helpful. I have had Access covers in the past and they lasted over 10 years in the weather outside. I did give it a monthly application of 303 protectant.



by:

Easy install. Only takes one person. Looks great and arrived a week early. My Honda Ridgeline trunk is funtional with top open or closed. Only a slight restriction on how far it will open.



by:

Good quality. Easy install. Makes the truck look professional and ready for some work. I paired this with a tailgate lock and a tailgate assist strut, makes things nice and secure, and protected from the elements.

I was looking for a tonneau cover for our F-250 long Bed truck. I’ve owned products from Access in the past and knew they were high quality. This soft tonneau cover is no exception. It arrived two days after I placed the order. While unboxing it, the care in which it was packed was evident. This was a sign of things to come. The directions are well written. The install took about 35 minutes. I am very happy with the quality of the parts and the overall look of it on our truck.

I also have to mention the helpful folks at trailer. The person I spoke with while ordering, made sure I ordered the right one for our truck. She answered all my questions and made sure I was happy with my purchase. Excellent customer service.



by:

Not a bad product for the price



by:

Product was exactly what I expected. Directions were easy to follow. Installation was exactly easier than I expected. Looks great.



by:

Great cover and fits like a glove. Fast shipping as well.



by:

Fit my 98 Nissan Frontier just fine. The cover is durable and no leaks whatsoever. Had to trim my bed liner for it to fit, because I didn’t want totally remove the liner.



by:

Top of the line roll up cover,, Better than the one I had before.
