Question:
RECOMMENDATIONS for Roof Crossbars and Ladder Mounting Kit. What would you recommend for a 2017 Buick Encore Premium? I have factory flush mount roof rails, no crossbars. I am going to carry 6 - 8 ft. folding ladder on regular basis. Secure and quick is good.

When installing a roof rack system on your 2017 Buick Encore with flush mount crossbars I recommend The Rhino Rack Roof Rack System this kit includes:
Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 49 inch Long - Qty 2 # RRVA126B-2
Rhino-Rack SRB Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars - Flush Factory Side Rails - Qty 4 # RRSX040
This slim, elliptical crossbar shape helps to create an extremely aerodynamic system. This roof rack has a weight capacity of 165 pounds. You can upgrade to The All-Metal Locks # RRVA-LEC4. They have a matte black finish.
The Cam-Lock Ladder Strap with Snap Shackle for Rhino-Rack Heavy-Duty Crossbars - 20 inch Long # RLS5 will attach to the Rhino-Rack Heavy Duty Crossbar to secure a ladder or other cargo to your roof rack. It has a cam-action buckle that locks the strap in place. A snap-on shackle anchors the strap to the crossbar.
The Load Stops for Rhino-Rack Heavy-Duty Crossbars - 5 inch Tall - Qty 2 # RRRLH can be used as ladder pegs or load holders to keep your gear from shifting on the Rhino-Rack Crossbars. The load stops mount into the C-channels of the crossbars and include tie-down points.
