Adjustable width watersport carrier holds 1 kayak, 1 canoe, or 2 SUPs with rubber-coated, ratcheting arms - no need for load straps. Integrated locks secure your boat or boards to the carrier. Includes clamp-on and top channel mounting hardware.
Features:
Specs:
To install the carrier with the adapters, set the carrier on top of your crossbars with the top portion of the adapter clamp already attached to the carrier base. Then hold the bottom portion of the clamp under your crossbar and tighten the clamps down with the included hardware and tool.
Built-In Security
LockRack carriers have security built-in with locks in the base of the carrier, securing the ratcheting arms. Once you've locked your boards or boat in the carrier by pushing the arms tight against your watercraft, the arms will stay locked until you remove them with a key.
This carrier comes with 4 identical keys. Once the arms are locked in place, insert a key into the locking mechanism in the carrier base. Rotate the key to unlock and release the ratcheting arms. If you ever need a replacement key (sold separately) you'll need to know your original key number. This number is not located anywhere on the carrier so be sure to make note of the numbers printed on the inside of the original set of keys.

Looks good and makes for an easy on and off.
I paddle board every day - I would not do it as much if it were not for the Lock Rack system! Stop wasting time with straps and get Lock Racks.
I'm very happy with this purchase, They installed very easily and the adjustments were easy to do and secured my kayak with ease.
Nice design but since there were no instructions it took me a bit to figure it out
Wow I am loving my new set up Thank you Nicole and etrailer for all your help in getting the right look and fit
After 20,000mi of hauling and adventuring with this rack, I can confidently say it holds everything down well. The plastic locking mechanism and rubber grips work consistently in the hot desert and up in the cold mountains.
The only thing keeping me from giving a 5-star review is the whistling, which I solved by compressing a foam tile between the rack and bar (photo attached).
Missing instructions, missing parts, instructions, and keys. Also received broken parts. All that I received is in this picture. I did get the bars that are not pictured
Best rack for surfboard. Well made. Fastest, simplest way to load a board. So simple and fast and a degree of security. I have a different style rack that also locks but is just thin cables. I don’t worry leaving my board on here for a brief moment away. It would take more than wire cutters to break it.
The keys are an issue (wish they were metal), but everything else is great! I go sunrise kayaking only and hate putting straps on with cold hands at 3:30 in the morning. I have a Nissan Pathfinder and was able to put this on with another set of Malone J-hooks so that I can have a second kayak when I go with someone. Once the fear subsides of it possibly falling off, you realize how quick and easy this thing is to use. It takes me 1 minute instead of 9-18 minutes to get my kayak up and secure. I have tested it at 75mph without any jiggling or issues. I sat on this in my shopping cart forever and finally pulled the trigger. If you kayak at least 10 times a year or are going at high speeds for extended periods of time in warm weather, totally worth it. If not, well, there are cheaper options out there.
You can't have anything else on your crossbars if you want to use this rack. The sercurimg bars do not swivel. Target they slide aaaallll the way out then you rotate and put them back in. Very low rent design for the price. Would not recommend.
great rack, easy install if ur familiar with t slots. love that it locks into place easily. considering getting a second one.
I installed the racks on my vehicle and the Rubber for Lockrack 9-7/8" Base blew off of the racks before I ever got to put a board on them now they want $80 to replace all four of them… I just spent over $400 for the rack and I’ve already got about $80 worth of replacement parts. I guess I should’ve glued them on also it may say they lock but anybody else who buys one will have the same key plus the installation bolts are not tamper proof either.
Unfortunately the track in my roof rails has grommets sticking up to hold the mount to the vehicle that will not allow the t-bolts to slide in. I can appreciate the heavy duty t-bolt and it is not lock racks issue. But I should have just bought the adapter mounts from go and could have saved myself frustration and a few dollars. Make sure your rails are not obstructed before purchasing.
Extremely secure, safe and lockable rack that avoids the cinching and stress of traditional straps. Easy to install. Fantastic service and communication from etrailer. Highly recommended.
Easy installation. Secure. No straps required. Drove 8 hours up to 80 mph, didn’t move.
They look great, it didn’t come with the connection to actually connect them to my roof rack.
Great company and customer service. The product was shipped quickly and arrived in a few days. The Lockrack is awesome. I use it for surfboards. It’s so easy to use. I have been using the product for several years and am very pleased with how simple and durable it is.
Rec'd earlier this week, so today i will install. The item was obviously a return. The logos are nearly scratched off in places, all the items were loosely thrown in the box, and the 10mm wrench and hex key were missing. i think everything else is there. The keys should be a bright color instead of black, some spray paint will fix that. Anyhoo, i am a little disappointed.
I mounted it on my Yakima racks. Very easy to do (directions could really be improved by having someone describe the steps more clearly). I have not used this. Could be a month or so. However, initially, it looks good. Too bad the angled arms that hold the kayak are not adjustable depending on the angle needed.
This is the best and quick way to transport your sup, surf ski, OC etc. load and lock in 10 second. Secured and effective set up. Couldn’t be happier with the purchase.
Great product
Great service
They. Care !
