    Bring Your Boards to the Water, Without Load Straps

    Stand-Up Paddle Board Carrier
    LockRack's surfboard carrier has a simple design that works with the shape of your boards to firmly them it in the carrier. With most surfboard carriers, tying down your boards can be a hassle because of shifting side straps. LockRack's design simplifies that process with its padded ratcheting arms. The arms close in tight on the tapered ends of your boards, securing it on your crossbars without the need for load straps.

    Surfboard CarrierSurfboard Carrier

    This carrier provides a secure rooftop transportation system for your boars to and from the water. Once your surfboards are loaded, push the arms in until they click into place, securing your boards to your vehicle.

    Ratchet Arms

    When your LockRack is not in use, you don't need to uninstall the carrier from your roof. Just remove the arms, rotate them 90 degrees, then reinsert them so that they lay parallel with the roof of your vehicle. This will reduce wind noise and give you more clearance when parking in your garage.

    Built-In Security
    Ratchet Arms

    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. br>
    Replacement Key Number

    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.

    I appreciate the follow up.  We use the Lockrack to transport 2 short thruster boards on our Can-Am Maverick X3.  Hands down is the best, coolest looking snd most practical surf rack we've ever had.

    Oh no, thats not good to hear. Let me get some reships set up for you.



    by:

    The lock rack is an awesome product and a must have for any surfer. Very courteous and professional staff, they updated me promptly about the status of my order. Will definitely be using them again.

    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).



    by:

    The LockRack was quick to install. I took my kayak out today- no straps to worry about or vibrating noise. Looks good and makes for an easy on and off.



    by:

    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.



    by:

    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.



    by:

    great rack, easy install if ur familiar with t slots. love that it locks into place easily. considering getting a second one.



    by:

    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.



    by:

    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.



    by:

    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.



    by:

    Easy installation. Secure. No straps required. Drove 8 hours up to 80 mph, didn’t move.



    by:

    I've been using my lockRacks for the summer and have been very pleased with the ease of use. They were relatively easy to assemble and install on my vehicle. I've had two race boards (SUP) on top, and they were secure. When I travel states, I do use my Straps also for safety.



    by:

    I'm very happy with this purchase, They installed very easily and the adjustments were easy to do and secured my kayak with ease.



    by:

    They look great, it didn’t come with the connection to actually connect them to my roof rack.



    by:

    Great product holdsv the kayaks in place and easy to use



    by: 09/04/2024

    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.



    by:

    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.



    by:

    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.



    by:

    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.



    by:

    This is a great product, easy to use. This is my second set since adding a second kayak, they are durable and hold things down well.

    Only negative is the price...I understand quality deserves value, but I feel like this could be a better price.



    by:

    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.

    • Does Lockrack Surfboard Rack Come with Clamp-On Mounting Hardware
      We do! The 13-3/4" Wide Lockrack Surfboard Rack is available both with channel mounts or with clamping style mounts like you mentioned needing: - Clamp Style Mounts # LR97VR - Channel Mounts # LR59FR I really like this style of carrier as well since it makes loading and unloading your gear much faster than managing a strap system. Happy surfing!

    • What Lockrack Carrier Can Carry 2 Surfboards?
      Both the Lockrack Surfboard # LR59FR and SUP Rack # LR47FR are only capable of carrying a single surfboard. We do have the Rack # LR67VR from Lockrack which can carry 2 small surfboards. If you have large boards you will want to consider looking at the Inno Locker Watersport Roof Rack # INA446.

    • Replacement Keys For Lockrack Surfboard Rack LR59FR
      Hello John, we can definitely get you some replacement keys for your Lockrack Surfboard Rack # LR59FR. Unfortunately the plastic cover piece is not something that is available separately. As far as the keys this rack can come with several possible keys. You still have two of the keys right? The key itself will have a number stamped on it, so if you can double check that number, we can make sure you get the correct keys. The following key codes are available: Key number SH.21.12 # LR94VR Key...

    • Can I Mount the LockRack Surfboard Carrier LR59FR on the Wall?
      While it's not intended to be used that way. I'm sure if you can get the LockRack Surfboard Carrier item # LR59FR attached to your wall it would work. You could probably put a screw through the holes where the T-nuts go. Another option would be to use the Malone SUP Storage Rack item # MPG384 and wrap the etrailer Cable Lock item # e98891 around your boards.

    • Looking For Surfboard Carrier That Fits Prinsu 100 Series Roof Rack For Toyota Landcruiser
      Hello Charles. It looks like the Prinsu rack uses a 2" wide by 1" tall crossbar, so you can use a surfboard carrier that clamps to the crossbars, just like a standard roof rack. For that I recommend the LockRack Surfboard Carrier # LR97VR. This comes with universal clamps that can attach directly to the crossbars on your Prinsu rack. The LockRack carriers are great because they are easy to load and you do not have to deal with any straps.

    • Roof Rack and Board Carrier Recommendation for 2016 Toyota Prius V with Glass Roof
      For your 2016 Toyota Prius V you will need to install a roof rack to carry the boards you mentioned. Unfortunately only Yakima makes roof racks for your vehicle and they aren't exactly super cheap. So for that you would want the Yakima CoreBar part numbers # Y00425, # Y28TR, # Y06117, # Y06174. Which with that you'd be able to use the LockRack kpart # LR59FR that you referenced. This will attach to the crossbar by the top channel.

    • Will Lockrack Carrier LR59FR Work on Rhino-Rack StealthBar Roof Rack JA8938
      Hello again, John! Happy you liked the StealthBar # JA8938 and the answer to your question is, you can absolutely use the channel mounted Lockrack Surfboard Rack # LR59FR. The base of the Lockrack # LR59FR is a mere 13-3/4 inches long, while the StealthBar # JA8938 crossbars have a top channel and measure more than 35 inches long, so there's plenty of room for the carrier.
