Can Yakima Key Cores Be Used In A Rhino-Rack Roof Rack?

Published 02/03/2022

Question:

Was looking at the rhino racks and adding the yakima rollers to them. Can I use the 8 locks with common key on both the yakima rollers and the rhino rack? Will the yakima locks work on the rhino racks or do I need to use 2 diff keys, one for the rack and one for the rollers?

Due to some subtly differences between the Yakima Same Key System, like the # Y07204, and the Rhino-Rack Masterkey Lock Barrels, like the # RRRK005-4, they will not be interchangeable, unfortunately. I included an image of these differences as well. So with that being said, you will need to have a key set for your Yakima rollers and Rhino-Rack keys for your roof rack.
