Can the Retrax Covers for a 2024 Chevy Colorado Be Opened From the Inside w/out a Key?
Updated 02/17/2026 | Published 06/23/2024
Question:
Can these Retrax covers be opened from the underside without a key? I would like to be able to open and lock using just the truck fob remote for the tailgate only?

Expert Reply:
No, they can't. You'll either need to use the key fob to open the PowertraxONE MX item # RTX94TR or the push button on the top to open the RetraxONE XR Hard Tonneau Cover item # RTX74TR. The other Retrax covers available for your truck have the same locking features.
Both of these covers are confirmed to fit a 2024 Chevy Colorado with a 5' bed.
