Specs:
The Lockrack watersport carrier with adjustable base lets you transport 1 kayak or canoe or 2 stand-up paddle boards on your roof rack crossbars without the need for load straps. The rubber-coated arms can be adjusted to the width of your boat or boards and ratchet into place for a secure hold. Once they are set, the arms lock into place and can only be removed with the included keys, ensuring your gear is safe and secure. Because a single person can quickly and easily load the boat or boards onto the carrier, and since load straps aren't necessary, you'll spend less time loading and unloading your gear and more time out on the water.
Loading a kayak, canoe, or SUPs onto the carrier is easy for one person to do. With the inner arms already installed and the base set to the width of your boat or boards, simply stack your gear on the carrier's base, making sure they're pressed against the arms. Then just insert the outer arms into the carrier and ratchet them down so they're sitting snuggly against your gear. Once fully locked around your gear, the ratcheting arms' curved design creates a lateral and downward force, ensuring your boat or boards are secure and won't slide around. And because of this design, you don't have to use load straps to secure the boards to your roof.
To ensure your boat or boards aren't damaged during transport, the ratcheting arms are covered with a rubberized sleeve. This rubber-coating flexes against the sides of your gear to protect them from scuffs and scratches, while still providing a secure hold.
For longer gear and longer trips, we recommend using bow/stern tie-down straps (sold separately). Because the carrier holds your gear in the center, the bow and stern can be subjected to damage caused by high winds. The bow/stern tie-downs provide additional support to help protect against this type of damage.
When not transporting your gear, the carrier's arms can be secured flat against your crossbars. In this position, the carrier adds less than 2" of overhead height to your roof rack crossbars. This means you won't have to remove them when pulling into your garage.
Four locking points secure the ratcheting arms and your gear to the carrier. When you ratchet the arms down, they lock in place and can only be removed with the included keys, giving you peace of mind when you're away from your vehicle and gear. For added convenience, the keys hook onto your key ring.
The rack installs quickly and easily with universal mounting clamps. Simply set the rack on top of your crossbars, attach the bottom portion of the clamp, and tighten the clamps down with the included tool.
To install the rack directly into the top channels of your crossbars, attach the T-bolts instead of the mounting clamps. Then just slide the rack into your crossbar's channels and secure it using the included socket wrench. To access the carrier's mounting hardware, simply remove the rubber strip on top of the base.

It works just like it was described. It locks tight, and the kayak does not move at all. I never have liked working with straps, now I won't have to. 908097
I love this rack. It fits my double ocean kayak perfectly. It was easy to install and now I don’t have to do the tie downs that the other racks require. Also I can take it on out of town trips as it locks my kayak onto the rack. Finally somebody designed a easy lockable kayak rack. This product is a must have. 894048

Love the rack so far! I debated it, however struggled with pulling the trigger for a few reasons, primarily concerns for winter transporting with ice issues. I decided to buy it and just plan to use regular straps in the winter. The one thing I had a hard time finding any feedback on was the option for transporting a standards or touring SUP with a race board. They are both so different in shapes. I did find some comments about loading the board that is wider on the top. That would not work for me due to the shape of the board, plus I would not want my race board to have that kind of pressure. I have been loading it on top, but having it pushed forward more than I generally would. So far it is working great. I do get a whistle. Not sure if it is my roof rack, my lock rack or both. Still giving it a 5 due to its functionality! 853747
Original package was damaged during shipment, but Customer Service resolved the issue with no friction. Great experience. Lockrack is the easiest to use rack I’ve used. 30 seconds or less to load and unload kayak and paddle boards. I would give it 4.5 stars if I could. Only cons are a slightly difficult installation and the quality of the plastic keys used to unlock the arms. Highly recommend the product. 837318
I don't really know what I am doing when it comes to mounting my gear on top of my truck but I just went with what I had. The Rhino Rack dual bars and Lockrack made it simple and very secure while hailing my camper and other items stored in my truck bed. It went just as I planned. Both my wife's SUP+ and my kayak traveled secure and out of the way. Looking for many more trips in our retirement. 819885
