Features to know about

Full Bed Access: Folding Aluminum Panels

A lot of hard covers make you choose between protection and full bed space, but this one gives you both. The BAKFlip G2 uses a quad-fold aluminum design that flips open in sections, so you can open just part of it or fold it all the way up for complete access. Prop rods hold the cover upright while you drive, and built-in rubber bumpers keep it from touching your cab or rear glass. When folded down, it sits low inside the bed rails and keeps the clean, flush look of the truck.

Keeps Gear Dry and Secure: Sealed and Locking Panels

Rain, snow, or road spray are no problem with the G2. Matte black rubber seals line the edges, and a built-in drainage system channels water away through the rails. Each ½"-thick aluminum panel latches automatically when you close it, and when the tailgate is locked, everything inside the bed stays secure. The panels are tough enough that no one can peel or cut through them, so tools, luggage, or groceries stay protected wherever you go.

Built to Last: Rustproof Aluminum Construction

This cover doesn’t just look sleek—it’s built for years of use. Each panel is made from rustproof aluminum with an insulated core that adds strength and rigidity. The textured black paint finish resists UV damage and corrosion, while the aircraft-grade aluminum rails have a black powder coat for extra durability. The G2 can support up to 300 lbs of evenly distributed weight when closed, so it’s strong enough to handle the job site or weekend gear.

Simple to Use: One-Person Operation

Opening and closing the cover is quick and easy. Just drop the tailgate and pull one of the release cords to unlatch a panel. Keep folding forward until you have the space you need. When you’re done, fold the panels back down—each one locks into place under its own weight. The system works smoothly and stays tight without extra tools or adjustments.

Fast, No-Drill Setup: Clamp-On Rails

Installing the G2 doesn’t require drilling or complicated tools. The frame rails clamp inside the bed rails, and the front hinge rail secures with included bolts. Slotted brackets allow fine-tuning for a snug, even fit. Once it’s in place, the low-profile design keeps the sleek lines of the truck and still lets you use stake-pocket-mounted accessories or racks when needed.

The cover looks good, if I ever get it on. Need 8 claps to put on side rails, only got 6! Had to call to get 2 more shipped to me.

Very easy to install. I didn't use the instructions (no, I'm not one of those guys). I used the installation video on the BSK G2 tonneau cover on etrailer.com! It arrived in just a few days and was very well packaged. I can finally store things in the bed of my truck safely. Way to go etrailer and BAK Industries!!

It has been holding on strong. One of the weather strips was coming undone, but I was able to adhere it back down.

I ordered a Bakflip tonneau cover and fob lock for my tailgate. Instructions on the cover were perfect. It looks great. Absolutely no institutional videos on my 2011 GMC Canyon for the remote. The wiring connection portion of the install was just past tedious. Once figured out it works like a dream.

Still is exactly what I hoped it would be. Adds security to my pick up bed, looks great and gets compliments. Plus it is easy to use. Great product...

by:

Ok the cover is great if you use it to secure items in the back but, the down fall is how the system attaches to the Ram trucks. The pressure applied by the bolts for securing the side rails causes the manufacturers bed rails to buckle in the middle which, is minimal if you live in a cold climate but, for the majority, it causes issues. I love the security but I hate what it does to my bed rails.
by:
Excellent cover! Easy to install. Looks way better on my truck than the old one and being able to fold it all the way up against the back window is very nice.

After using it for a while Im extremely happy with this cover. It has been a game changer, making my 2008 Ford Ranger bed far more useable and convenient for carrying a variety of items. One of the best purchases Ive ever made for it.

@MikeH Glad you are liking it! Hard covers are definitely the way to go! ^___^ What do you typically keep in your bed? I have a milk crate with some survival type things and various tools in it. One can never be too prepared!

This cover works great and was very simple to instal. Didn’t take much time. The only thing I can recommend is that the instructions are kinda hard to follow at the begging.
by:
I have had many brands of hard covers and this one out performs the others.
The installation is critical especially with the RAM box configuration as I have.
All the parts were supplied. Take your time, read and measure twice cut once.
by:
This cover has been perfect for my application. Previously I had an electric motorized unit that leaked badly when it rained and had no mechanical override in the event the truck was not running. This cover is nearly waterproof and is easily opened and held open for travel if I choose to do so. It looks and works very well.
by:
It’s well built and stout. Installation was a little tough. I’ve had to adjust lock tabs a few times. It sure works great keeping wheelchair covered.
by:
Good product. I had to re-drill the prop rods for the cover. They were no where near where they should have been. Other than that, the installation went pretty well. Not quite as sturdy as the one I bought 15 years ago from the same company.
by:
Camera mounting seems off alittle compared to the original tried adjusting but still the same view
by:
The BAKFlip G2 Hard Tonneau Cover has done an excellent job of protecting our various item in he truck bed while running around town or out camping. It is a good solution to securing items in the truck bed from casual theft.
by:
I bought this cover so when I tow my fifth wheel camper I can open up and still leave a section closed to cover my air compressor and inverter and when I drop the trailer I can cover my hitch and lock it. It works perfectly for my application. Great quality and sturdy.

After a year of use the cover still works perfectly and I would highly recommend this cover. I really like the fact that you can open up different sections without having to open the whole thing.

Hi Mardy. I have heard this to be a difficult install and the latches to be stiff (though adjusting them helps), but noisy, flimsy, and poor quality are firsts for a BAK product like this. What kind of noise are you getting? Is something maybe not tightened down all the way causing part to stick up? And, what part are you finding flimsy or poor quality?

by:

The tonneau cover is excellent when you get it installed properly. I can only give it a 3 rating because the workmanship of their latches the way they installed them was very shabby. Had to move all the latches back into their frame so they would not hit the side rails, had to re-drill holes that fastened most of the latches to the frame. If they would have taken their time installed the latches properly, then it would have been an excellent tonneau cover all over.

After year of use I love the tonneau cover. had issues installing but after using for a year I would give it a five star.

by:
This cover has made leaving items in our truck bed much easier.
I do wish it had a way to secure it when not fully open, I.e. one section open.
by:
Love this cover. It was better than I expected. Equally as important I like working with etrailer. Good people that understand and can explain the details of their products. I have used them for a lot of stuff for my boat trailers always with good results.

Actually its closer to two years and I could not be more pleased. I have done a few rainy road trips and the one thing that worried me was if it would keep the contents dry and it did. Al else about the cover has been good too. Good product and it fit like a glove.

by:
I was impressed with how your company staff received my order request, how company staff kept me updated on order status and delivery. Installation went very well. The instruction manual was well detailed. I am very satisfied with your cover. The cover fits perfectly. I continue to receive compliments. Thank you from a very satisfied customer.

2017 GMC Sierra 3500
This is the second BAKFlip G2 Hard Tonneau Cover we have purchased. The first was for our 2005 Chevy. This is for our 2017 GMC. The 2005 fit much better. The 2017 model is not wide enough to actually fit the bed allowing water to easily enter the bed. Also the posts that hold the cover up against the cab were drilled wrong. You have to remove the slide to fit the prop rod. They simply drilled the hole for the nutzert in the wrong spot on the passenger side. Just not the same quality fit or finish as the 2005 version. We would have returned it but sending it back was going to be too much of a hassle due to its size.
This cover is now completely junk due to a hail storm. No fault of BAKflip but the hail storm destroyed the cover is seconds. The aluminum used in this model is just too light to protect from any type of impact.

2019 Dodge Ram Pickup
We purchased the BAK Industries BAKFlip G2 Tonneau Cover for our 2019 Ram 2500. We use this cover for security/keeping the weather off of our camping accessories for our RV. The cover works great and is fairly waterproof. The only issues we have had is the 1st latching cable, most of the time we need to pull the cable release from both sides to release the locking lugs to open. Over-all a good purchase, and would recommend it for anyone looking for a hard cover.
by:
Overall, a good product. This is the third BakFlip I've owned on different trucks. Quality wasn't as good as older units. The wires to release the latches are too long and get trapped inside the cover so you can't reach them. I added pieces of tape to fix this problem. Also, the nylon straps to hold it open are a nice addition but the plastic buckles broke almost immediately. Older units with metal rings for you to attach bungee cords was a better design.

As always, etrailer service & delivery are outstanding!

This is the third Bak flip G2 Yard Tonneau Cover. Like that they are strong enough to hold test shap and fold flay enough the I can use the bed camera on my F-350 to help me hook up to the 5th wheel. And when it is closed and my tailgate is locked does provide some protection against theft of anything in the bed. I would recommend the cover to anyone that needs one.

great cover for my 5th wheel hitch and any loose items I carry. Just flip 3 times to tow my 5ver and go.
