Features to know about

All-Weather Cargo Protection: 5-Layer Fabric over Aluminum Slats

Rain, sun, and road grime can ruin tools or gear left in the bed. The Sentry CT’s premium, 5-layer woven polyester and vinyl fabric shields everything from UV rays, dust, and moisture while staying flexible from -40°F to 120°F. Beneath the fabric, 3/4" thick aluminum slats add impact resistance and keep the cover strong enough to hold up to 400 lbs of evenly distributed weight. It’s a solid barrier against the elements without giving up a clean look.

Full Bed Use in Seconds: Roll-Up Hybrid Design

When you need space for larger cargo, the hard roll-up design makes it easy. Just pull a release cable on either side of the tailgate and roll the cover forward. It secures neatly at the cab with built-in safety straps, keeping your rear window clear. You can even remove the cover completely in seconds using the quick-release guides—no tools needed. It’s convenient access without sacrificing protection.

Streamlined Look and Smooth Operation: Low-Profile Self-Leveling Rails

Bulky covers can break up the truck’s lines or rattle when driving. The Sentry CT mounts to 15-degree angled side rails that sit only 1/2" above the bed for a flush, aerodynamic profile. The self-leveling rail design squares itself as you tighten the clamps, so the cover rolls out evenly every time. The result is quiet operation and a sleek finish that reduces wind drag and helps fuel economy.

Security You Can Count On: Slam Latches and Mid-Bed Locks

Keeping gear safe from theft matters as much as keeping it dry. The Sentry CT uses dual slam latches at the tailgate plus extra security latches at mid-bed for maximum protection. When paired with a locked tailgate, these latches secure the cover completely, preventing anyone from prying it open. The hard aluminum slats stop blades or tools from cutting through like a soft cover could.

Easy Installation and Accessory-Friendly Fit: Clamp-On In-Bed Mounts

Installing some covers can mean drilling or losing stake pocket access. This one clamps right onto the inside of the bed rails with no drilling required and leaves stake pockets open for tie-downs or rack mounts. Because it sits inside the rails, it stays compatible with most bed liners and rail caps, giving you flexibility for accessories without extra hassle.

This tonneau cover was easy to install and is plenty rugged to hold up to a 24" wet snow load. It rolls up easily. I was hoping it would improve my fuel economy, and I suppose it has about 1/2 to 1 mile/gallon when I go on long trips at highway speeds. About the only complaint I have is that it is not fully waterproof and small amounts of wat water leakes in along the bed rails. Nothing major though.
by:
Installing was easy and instructions were very helpful. Product looks great! And more secure than the other products offered by Truxedo

The cover is working, absolutely fantastically. It’s been out in the weather, been through car washes, down dusty roads and still looks brand new when it’s washed. I’d highly recommend this product.

Purchased about 6 months ago and have been using it since. Once you install it correctly and the left and right sides are balanced, it closes with the flick of the wrist. We are definitely pleased and would purchase it again. My wife who can barely reach the cover of our 2022 gmc sierra 2500 standard bed has no problem rolling this up. Just make sure to close the tailgate before closing the top, otherwise you'll crunch the molding on the top. Enjoy!

The quality of the cover overall is quite high and has potential when fitting correctly. The problem is the fit on the RamBox trucks. I had to heavily modify the rails to get them to fit properly. I was told to return I would incur a 15% restocking fee and get no credit if it was not able to be put back on the shelf. So I was tasked with finding a solution on my own (tech support was no help). I ripped 1/4" off the aluminum rails using a table saw and notched around the bolt holes. After this modification it fits well.
by:
If it was practical to return it, I probably would. I am a farmer and a mechanic, so I can live with it, but not very good. Install was complex and baffling as I have a Ridgeline which is not standard. The worst feature is the back latch or uses a cable pull and two sliding latches which are just trash. Poor design, bad functionality and breaks easily. Mine jammed up and would not unlock, and ended up breaking the cheap plastic lock assembly to get in, result of poor design. Still jams and easier to just leave it unlatched and unlocked. Small rubber seal at endgate fell off and lost. Looks good, secure when it works. Expected more.

There is a lot going on with the cover. Would you be able to send a picture of the cover and the serial number from it.

@JennyN Thank you for sending the pictures. I reached out to manufacturer and they are sending out a new latch system for you.

This is a well made bed cover. Easy to use, solid and secure, but not in the way when open. I love that it does not block my back window when driving with it open. The fabric on top of the aluminum is high quality and looks good. Highly recommend, I'm actually happy there was not a back flip for my truck, as I wanted to ordered one, but this is a better solution.

After a year the cover is still looking great and working great. I wish I had purchased one of these when I purchased my truck, as it is nice to be able to securely store stuff in the bed of my truck.

by:
Overall this has been a great hard tonneau cover. Installation wasn't too difficult, it's not 100% water/dust proof, but I don't think any tonneau cover ever is. It stood up to several heavy snowfalls over the winter without any issues and it still looks good with no noticeable fading of the vinyl covering. The roll-up convenience is great when you need the whole bed compared to a fold-up tonneau that can block the rear window when folded all the way up. The only issue I have run into is occasionally the rear most clips that lock the tonneau down can slide out slightly from their fully seated position and it can make it difficult to close. It's easy to push the clip back into place, but the first time it happened it was a little frustrating.
by:
After one year, still solid and working perfectly. Keeping secure and dry.
by:
It does a great job at what I wanted. Lockable, a rollup that impedes full bed loading less than most, does not block vision from back windshield. It is sturdy reinforced so doesn't sag or or make wind noise. Nothing is break in proof but you have to be pretty determined to get in this. Nothing is rainproof but the limited amount is very acceptable to me. The top still looks good after a year of snow and sun. The installation was a little fussy and you do have to have your rails diagonally squared! 3 hours for me, but I could do it in half the time now with lessons learned. I thought it was pricey but I'm happy with it and would buy it again.
by:
Easy installation and easy to use. Cover looks good on my truck and appears to be very strong
by:
I love my truck bed cover! I was a little hesitant to buy something online but the reviews were good and the description was exactly what I wanted so I took the chance. Everything went well. The directions for installation were explicit and easy to follow. Everything lined up perfectly and operated as expected, especially the waterproof part as only a few drops of water have ever made it inside the bed and only in extreme downpours with excessive wind. It has been a year and the only thing I wish I had done differently was get it earlier! I bought it before a trip and ended up installing it in freezing temperatures . . .
by:
The cover is great and looks good too. It’s very easy to install and hit low to the bed rails of the truck. The interlocking aluminum strips make the cover heavier. But the fact that the lock together and the is locking mechanism in a couple places along the rail add to the security of the cover. There are two quick releases at the end by the cab allowing me the ability to remove and install the cover quickly. Clicking the rear end in place is quick and easy.

Fits good easy to install with my sports bar

Truxedo and E-trailer got my tonneau cover out and delivered in 7 days. I installed the cover as soon as I received it. Installation was very easy with pretty clear instructions. Just looking at the cover it seems to be of good quality. I have yet to drive my truck so I can't say how it actually preforms in different weather conditions. From what I see I doubt it is totally water proof. I can see a couple of small area where water will leak in. But we will see. The only complaint I have so far is the seal tape they supply for the front of the bed to be used if your truck bed has bed caps. Rams do. This seal tape is meant to fill the gap at the front. The tape should be better quality. It did not want to stick to the bed. I did follow cleaning procedure before I applied it. This is the only reason I did not give it 5 stars. These hard roll up covers are pricy so I hope it is a quality product. As far as E-trailer and their sales/service they are the best.

The product arrived in a damaged box and had damaged rails. I reached out right when I opened the box, spoke to a rep and submitted pictures., I received no confirmation that the pictures were received, or that replacement parts are processing and, on the way, this is still an open issue.

  • Difference Between TruXedo Sentry and Sentry CT Tonneau Cover for 2020 Chevy Silverado 2500
    That's a good question because there is only one difference between the TruXedo Sentry and TruXedo Sentry CT covers for your 2020 Chevy Silverado 2500, which is the material that the cover is made from. The Sentry cover is made of an industrial-strength leather-grain vinyl fabric, while the Sentry CT's cover is made of a woven polyester and vinyl fabric which is five layers, which is designed to resist dirt. This means the cover of the Sentry CT is going to stay cleaner for a longer period...

  • Difference Between Truxedo Sentry and Sentry CT Roll-Up Hard Tonneau Cover on 2022 Chevy Silverado
    They are actually pretty similar. The only physical difference between the two is the material used for the top of the cover that's exposed to the weather. The Truxedo # TX1573301 uses a vinyl top, while the top used on the Sentry CT, part # TX1573316 is a heavier polyester/vinyl like that's used on automobile convertible tops. The fabric is thicker and tougher than what's used on the Sentry which is why the Sentry CT has a 5 year warranty, while the Sentry is covered for 3 years. As far...

  • Is Multipro Tailgate on GMC 2500 HD SLT Compatible with a Truxedo Sentry CT Tonneau Cover
    According to our friends at Truxedo, their # TX1573316 Sentry CT Hard Tonneau Cover will work perfectly with the multipro tailgate. The tonneau won't prevent the tailgate from operating, and vice versa. The aluminum and vinyl construction make for a durable product, and when needed, the cover can be removed without tools so your entire bed is quickly and easily available for hauling.
