Built to Handle Heavy Loads: 1" thick aluminum supports 500 lbs evenly; matte finish resists scratches and sun.
Features to know about
Secure Storage on Every Drive: Built-In Locking Handle
When you load up expensive tools or gear, you want to know they’ll still be there when you come back. The RetraxPRO XR keeps everything safe with a built-in locking handle that can secure the cover at any point along the rails. The handle uses two metal teeth that grip into the track, locking the cover tight wherever you stop it. Close it all the way and lock your tailgate for full protection, or leave it partially open to cover smaller items at the front while hauling oversized cargo in the back.
Full Bed Use in Seconds: Retractable Aluminum Slats
Getting full access to your bed is simple. The cover glides on sealed ball-bearing rollers, so it opens smoothly with one hand and without straps, snaps, or springs. When you retract it, the cover rolls neatly into a space-saving canister that leaves room underneath for smaller gear. A spiral track system inside the canister keeps the slats from rubbing together, preventing wear. With no joints or hinges to freeze or trap dust, operation stays smooth through every season.
Haul More Gear Above the Bed: Accessory T-Slots
If you run out of space in the bed, the integrated T-slot rails let you mount a ladder rack or roof rack system right on top. They’re compatible with most T-slot accessories from Yakima, Rhino-Rack, and Thule, so you can carry bikes, kayaks, or camping gear above the cover while still using the bed below. The rails don’t interfere with the retractable action, giving you true load flexibility whether the cover is open or closed.
Year-Round Protection: Sealed Aluminum Construction
Rain, snow, and UV heat don’t stand a chance against the RetraxPRO XR. The 1" thick aluminum slats are impact and weather resistant, and the matte black finish resists scratches and fading. Foam seals and automotive-grade weather stripping keep out dust and moisture, while two drain tubes route any water out of the canister. The cover overlaps the tailgate for an extra layer of defense, keeping your cargo dry and clean through rough weather or car washes.
Clean Look, Strong Build: Low-Profile Design
This cover sits just 1" above the bed rails for a streamlined, low-profile appearance. The flush front cover blends into the rolling panels for a smooth finish, and the angled canister bottom frees up more cargo space underneath. It’s built to handle up to 500 lbs of evenly distributed weight, so you can trust it to stay solid and sharp-looking trip after trip.

Yakima Hd Overhaul And Retrax Tonneau Cover
07/03/2020
Thanks etrailer. Ordered the Yakima Overhaul ladder racks and the Retrax tonneau cover. It’s the perfect solution for our camping/kayaking trips. Both products are solid and top notch. Installation was a breeze on my 20 Tundra. 827497
Installation was straight for and easy to accomplish.
It's nice to have the back of my truck covered. I can store my tools and other items in the back without taking up room in the backseat.
Before I installed the product, I had to remove the plastic Toyota Bedliner because leaves and dirt were clogging the drainage slot at the front of the bed. 1229820

Great cover! Kevin is the best! one complaint I have is their could be a better way to seal the plugs where they connect to the underside of the spindle drum, for less leaking around the connection point.i do realize it's not a submarine but feel it's a easy fix none the less. perhaps better materials would be sufficient. ) Thanks etrailer. just the fact you check up a year latter says alot about your company) 3211318

I installed the RetraxPro XR tonneau cover myself and it wasn't bad at all. I had to do a lot of adjusting to get it perfectly straight and even. The hardest part was having my wife help me lift the cover in the truck after it was assembled. I wish they would include some kind of a reducer to be able to fit the drain hoses into the smaller holes in the bed of the truck so no drilling would have to be made. Other than that, great bed cover and can't wait to add T-slot accessories. 3586217
Was relatively simple to install and works as advertised. Not my first of these covers so I am a return customer and also new what to expect with installation. The PDF instructions are good, but not quite Lego or IKEA level. I haven't installed the Yakima HD Overhaul System yet, but do not expect any issues. 3573189
Easy to order and find the correct fit. This is my third cover from this brand and my first with aluminum slats instead of polycarbonate due to a different truck size. Installation took about two hours from start to cleanup, and I needed a couple of neighbors to help lift it since the aluminum version is heavier. My previous polycarbonate covers didn’t leak and worked well, but they became slightly wavy over time. I expect the aluminum version to hold up better.
Installation note for 2026 Ram 3500 Dually: when positioning the clamps at each set of plastic allen screws had to adjust front and back clamps The front clamp near the cab bolts were a bit short due to the wider gap between bed and tonneau rail, so I removed the top back piece of the clamp to secure it properly. The lower supports did not fully reach the side walls, and the rear clamp near the tailgate required removing the lower support bolt to clear the cargo light. The middle clamps fit as intended with no adjustments. Something for the manufacture to consider as new trucks come out with different accessories.
Overall, I’ve been very happy with this brand over the years and am satisfied with this purchase. 3486480
Thanks for sharing the install tip about the 2026 Ram 3500 Dually model. The Tonneau looks great on your truck too.

Love the rolling bed cover! No more lifting/folding heavy cover panels. Solid construction, easy to use, and relatively water tight. It is best to have a second person helping with the installation for lifting the assembled cover onto the bed of your truck without scratching the sides. Very easy to install. 3633024
And it looks sharp on your blue truck Marvin! I am happy you are very pleased with your new tonneau cover =)

Replaced my "soft" tonneau cover that was tearing, fading, and falling apart after 10 years of faithful service. Bought this tonneau cover because of the retractable operation and the aluminum construction. While it is obviously built tougher and the operation is smooth, it does have its downfalls (which I didn't think of too much at the time). One being the space that is lost in the front where all that retraction goes, I guess there is around 8 inches of height at the very front. Additionally, where it lays is slightly lower than the bed rails which takes away at least around an inch of height compared to my previous cover. This makes a big difference when getting tall containers and the like to fit. I do enjoy the elevated level of security the new tonneau cover offers, even though I had zero problems with the previous cover. 3571257

Thanks for taking the time for such a detailed review RAMDaddy! I would say you definitely got your moneys worth on your last one with the 10 years of use! And valid points on the new cover, it does stink that the canister takes up so much room, but it is still a really nice cover. I hope you get 10 years plus out of this new one =)

Quality and fit and finish seem strong. Straightforward install. Would be 5 stars if the cover could close while using the Toyota tie-down system. The locking components knock up against the OEM tie-down brackets and stop the tonneau cover from closing. Secondly, the OEM Toyota tie-down brackets cannot be used in the accessory T-slots as the OEM brackets have a larger T and cannot slide into the RetraxPRO accessory T-slots.
So,. I've paid for two different tie down systems , Toyota and Retrax and still don't have a solution. At my age I should have known better and done more research. 3618237

I couldn’t be happier with this tonneau cover for my F450. It shipped well, arrived quickly, and was packaged securely with no damage at all. Everything was organized and protected right out of the box.
Installation was surprisingly easy — clear instructions and no headaches. I had it mounted in no time, and it fit my F450 perfectly. The alignment was spot-on and the clamps secured tightly without any modifications needed.
The cover looks great, feels durable, and gives the truck a clean, finished appearance while keeping the bed fully protected. It opens and closes smoothly and feels solid once locked down.
If you’re looking for a tonneau cover for your F450, this is a great choice. Fast shipping, easy install, and excellent quality — 5 stars all the way! 3491660

Had this on my truck for over a year, outside in the elements every day and it still looks brand new. The finish is tough and durable. It rolls open and closed with ease and the locking mechanism is free and smooth. Couldnt be happier with it.

Retrax Pro XR with Rhino Rack Cross Bar set for the XR
This has greatly simplified my bicycle transport. Before I was using separate ladder rack on back of trailer, and hitch rack on truck. Compared with my prior setup, here are the improvements:
-- removes ~75 lbs from back of my trailer
-- not dealing with separate truck and camper bike racks (esp hitch rack taking up bed room while towing)
-- don't have to unload bikes to check something on camper roof
-- bikes are easier to load (even with lifting)
-- cross bars detach in seconds and lift off for full bed access or car wash (the cross bar and bike rack assembly stores on hook in garage)
-- Don't have to remove and store bike seats (they extended well past right side of trailer when on ladder rack)
-- Bikes are more protected above tonneau cover than either on hitch rack or ladder rack. 735173
I had a solid tonneau before and liked it. Only problems with it were you could not drive with the cover up and it was a bear to remove even with the help of my wife. That truck was totaled by a drunk driver. So the replacement truck had to have an easier cover and wile I was at it, why not some racks as well? It looks great! Fits perfectly and was a synch to install. On the down side it is not completely dry and it did freeze up once in the winter. Other than that I do like it and gave it 4 stars 1062669
The Retrax Pro XR cover performs and looks like new after 1 year. Took 2 of us to install and adjust properly. Very minimal water leakage around tailgate sometimes which is expected. Read reviews of water leaks but must be due to improper installation/adjustment. Very satisfied and looks great. 2024 GMC 2500HD Denali 3436510

Order was processed quickly and arrive in the specified shipping time. Easy two person install and fine tuning is an easy one person job. Great quality top and rugged. Perfect top for your pickup. Bed stays water tight so storing sleeping bags or luggage is no problem on long trips. 1030949
Showed up quickly, this is the 3rd purchase from etrailer.com, they have great customer service, they know their products, prices are reasonable and they ship fast. I also purchased the Curt Hitch from them. 820436
Short version, LOVE IT!!! This was a lot more money than I wanted to spend but it was well worth it. While not water tight it is close. Easy to install, easy to operate. Does not make noise even on washboard roads. The loss of space by having a canister has not impacted me. But I saved the best for last. My daughter wanted one for her truck so I ordered another one. It was damaged in shipment and the best customer service representative in the world, Kimberly O, helped me out by getting me a new replacement quickly. I highly recommend this Tonneau Cover. I also got T-Slots and use my Rhino crossbars with the cover. No problems, just like they were made for each other. 3380832
The RetraxPRO XR Hard Tonneau Cover that fits the 2019 Toyota Tundra 5-1/2-foot bed with the deck rail system is part # RTT-80841 and this cover can be fitted with 65-inch Rhino-Rack crossbars. Order # RRVA165B-RRRLT600. Install instructions are linked for you. view full answer...
The rack system I highly recommend for your 2020 Toyota Tundra with a Retrax XR tonneau cover is the Yakima OverHaul HD Adjustable Truck Bed Ladder Rack for Tonneau Cover # Y01151-5855.
This is the best rack system for your Tundra because it is adjustable in height to meet your custom load-carrying requirements, has a robust 300 lb capacity, has channels in the bars to mount accessories like Load Stops # Y01161 or Eye Bolts # Y01162 and comes with locks to secure the uprights to your truck.

The tonneau cover and rack system you are referring to from that answer - a Retrax XR cover and Yakima ladder rack - is absolutely compatible with a 2020 Toyota Tundra with a 5-1/2 foot bed, it will just require some different part numbers, and the right fit for the tonneau will depend on if your Tundra has the Deck Rail system or not.
Here are the fits for a 2020 Toyota Tundra with a 5-1/2 foot bed for the Rextrax covers that will allow you to install a Yakima ladder rack.

There are very high-quality options for a locking tonneau cover and rack system for your 2018 Toyota Tundra with a 5-1/2 foot short bed. The best of the bunch are the RetraxPRO XR or RetraxONE XR tonneau covers, with the difference being the fully aluminum panels of the RetraxPRO vs. the lexan (which is just a very hard plastic) panels of the RetraxONE.
These are also available in either a manual or powered cover, and both will lock at any point along the bed. They also have a rail system... view full answer...
Seems like you have the Extang Trifecta 2.0 # EX92461 on your 2015 Toyota Tundra. This is an above the rail tonneau cover so the stake pockets are covered. There really is not a ladder rack that you can use with the tonneau cover you have.
If you're really wanting a tonneau and ladder rack combo you have some options. The highest tier setup would be the RetraxPRO XR # RTT-80841 and then you can use the Yakima OverHaul HD system # Y01151-5855 that will fit in the T-Slots in the RetraxPRO... view full answer...
Hey Ken, the BAKflip you have now is considered "inside the rail" mount which is why it works with a "top of rail" mounted ladder rack. The RetraxPRO XR you're interested in is considered "top of rail" mount and would interfere with the ladder rack. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news there.
We do have other hard/soft covers that work with the ladder rack you have, but none of them offer the t-slot for accessories like the RetraxPRO does and none are retractable. You can't really have... view full answer...
While Retrax says their cover RetraxPRO XR will work with most, they can't confirm all Rhino, Yakima, and Thule accessories will fit. However Retrax does has a free resource on their site at Retrax.com, then the Install & Resources link at bottom will take you to a listing of compatible accessories.
The handle has a locking mechanism uses 2 points/"teeth" to grip into a metal track to keep it locked. This allows it to be locked at any position along the rail.

If you're wanting an all aluminum retractable cover with t-slots then you can use the RetraxPRO XR Hard Tonneau Cover # RTT-80841. This would be compatible with your 2019 Toyota Tundra's 5.5' bed with a deck rail system. view full answer...
