If you’re tired of climbing into the bed or struggling with stiff panels, this electric retractable design makes life easier. The Pace Edwards UltraGroove opens and closes with a key fob remote in under thirty seconds. The motor wires directly to your truck’s battery and includes an electro-magnetic brake that locks the cover at any point along the rails, so you can secure partial loads exactly where you need them. A manual override lever on the canister keeps things functional even if power is ever lost.
When you want to carry bikes, kayaks, or ladders, the integrated T-slot side rails make this cover stand out. These channels run the full length of the rails and accept most T-slot accessories, including elevated racks like the Pace Edwards EL200. Mounting gear above the bed keeps it clear of your cargo below, and the rounded side rails give everything a clean, factory look without blocking cover movement.
Rain, dust, or car washes won’t faze this setup. Multiple layers of rubber seals line both sides of the rails, while endcaps extend over the tailgate edges to keep water out at every corner. Front and rear drain tubes route water through OEM holes so it never pools in the bed. Combined with aluminum interlocking panels and silicon weather hinges, this design keeps cargo dry and shields it from road grime year-round.
The UltraGroove sits about one inch above the bed rails for a tight, streamlined fit that doesn’t spoil your truck’s lines. Interlocking aluminum panels finished in matte black powder coat resist corrosion and dents while improving aerodynamics. The angled canister sits just 12 inches tall by 10-1/4 inches deep, giving you maximum usable bed space and full rear-window visibility when retracted.
Installing this cover doesn’t mean drilling into your truck. The side rails clamp directly to the bed with two clamps per side, and adjustable kickstands help level everything out for a perfect seal. Once mounted, all that’s left is routing the drain tubes and connecting the wiring harness to your battery—simple steps that get you ready to roll fast without permanent modifications.
Ratings & Reviews
Had this for about a year and its doing well. Pretty good keeping the water out. I would buy it again.
Excellent quality. Great service and fast delivery
Fast shipping and delivery
I have enjoyed the cover but the powder coating has come off of one of the aluminum rails and I never recieved the correct end cap for one of the rails
I have tried them all.
Trifolds....accordians...to full on toppers.
I will not be looking anymore. It provides the security that I need and the convenience with the electric rolltop.
Still looks mint a year later.
Installed wiring for cover (power and switch) first and then installed the cover .
etrailers videos were great
Solid cover and easy to install.
Great communication and shipping
This product exceeded my expectation! I installed it on a 2019 F450 limited and the only modifications required to the truck was to drill (2) 5/8” holes in the bed plug covers (4L3Z-99277B76-AA) to allow the drain tubes to exit the bed of the truck. The rail mounts did require me to remove (drill out) all the shims to get the required width for the cover. Thanks to both etrailer and Pace-Edwards customer support for answering questions about removing the shims.
The online instructions I downloaded from etrailer did not contain the correct installation widths for this Item, however the instructions shipped from Pace-Edwards were spot on.
Imstalled to exact specifications,and the slide drags midway throthe cycle. Measurements are exact from front to back. I used the lubrication before first operation as well. Considering using a light, low temp grease to see if it will loosen up...
Not very impressed.
The Pace-Edwards tonneau cover works very well. I sprayed lithium grease in the track and it worked great. It was a challenge to install by myself but it turned out nice.
The Pace Edward’s UltraGroove retractable hard Tonneau cover works well. Really liked the installation video.
Easy to install, secure when closed and tailgate is locked, looks great. Very convenient, push a button and it opens, push it again and it closes. It can be stopped in any position which is great for a fifth wheel
Very easy to install,v just make sure you have a partner to help pick it up and get it into the bed. aside from that it took no time at all to wire it up and start using it. Looks great and very sturdy.
Works great, installation instructions not great but the video on the website was amazing and was in great detail. The key fobs are little bigger then I like but the system it self is great and works well
I installed the pace Edwards powered ultra groove cover on an 2024 2500HD truck. The cover has been on for about a year. Overall the cover is very nice and I like the ability of being able to have the top partially open. I also have used it with my Yakima overhaul truck rack to haul kayaks and bikes. Putting the rack onto the ultragrroove was very easy and works excellent. It’s so nice having a powered cover with the rack onto! It’s very nice to not need to reach over the side rails to open/close. I have the Bluetooth option and that works very well and that is my primary choice of operation.
The cover was pretty easy to install and the videos were helpful. if you have an electric lift tailgate make sure to keep the overlap of the cover on the tailgate to a minimum or the power tailgate may not self close if the cover seal interacts too heavily with tailgate top
A few things that I found;As the manufacturer states it’s not water proof and I get a little water in from around the cover seals and the canister box. But the majority of the water seems to come in from all the openings in the bed and gaps on the tailgate. In the sun the black cover absorbs a LOT of heat and the temperature in the bed get quite high. Be aware of this on a sunny day with anny temperature sensitive items or coolers placed in the bed. Be careful touching the black slats on an hot sunny day they are hot. The cover motor significantly slows down when closing and sounds like it may not be able to close but it does get there. Although the motor sounds week when closing, it is not and if you get any body part caught between the cover closing and the tailgate you will suffer some pain. I found this out when leaning over the tailgate to try and grab something out of the bed with the remote in my pocket. I leaned on the close button and got my arm pinched between the tailgate and the closing cover. I had some serious bruises. From what I have experienced there is nothing to reverse the motor if it becomes jammed or pinches something like an arm. Seems the motor current gets maxed out and the motor stops and the cover is locked there. I would prefer if there was some sort of safety here as I worry whenever my grand kids are helping me load something. Best advice is not to have the fob in someone’s pocket where it could unexpectedly get triggered.
One thing that has been a problem is the drains on the bottom of the canister box. These are used to drain water from the box. The drains are plastic fittings that twist and lock in the bottom of the box and have a semi ridged drain hose that goes to a hole in the bed. The issue is that any time you put a 2x4, a piece of plywood, or anything that fits under the canister box, it hits the tube or nipple and snaps it off.
I repaired and replaced these several times. I have now replaced them with a 90 degree barbed elbow on the bottom of the box and used a more flexible vinyl hose. Now the hose is much tighter to the box and tube is not getting hit every time something is put in the bed.
