Bakkies are amongst the most popular types of vehicles in South Africa. They are extremely versatile and double-cab models can double as family transport while still offering all the versatility of a load bed at the rear. These vehicles are intended for hauling almost anything that can fit into the loading area. For many locals, it is the ideal blend of utility and rough-road ability. South Africans love bakkies so much, many use them as daily drivers.

If you use your bakkie for hauling purposes, you would know that there is a security problem with that. Your bakkie could be a target when transporting an open load. Therefore, Securi-Lid roll-top covers provide a smart and strong solution. We can fit such a cover onto the loading bay of your bakkie. This roll-top cover securely encloses the load bay of your bakkie, thus ensuring the security of the load you are carrying underneath it. Today, we will delve into detail surrounding these covers and how they can enhance your bakkie.

Securi-Lid Roll-Top Covers

When travelling with an exposed load, everyone can see what you are hauling. This allows a criminal to simply steal items from the rear of your vehicle when stationary, either at a traffic light or when parked. The strong Securi-Lid roll-top cover is made from aluminium and acts as a visual and physical barrier between your load and any criminal. The cover is fitted on top of the loading bay and does not require any modifications to your bakkie’s body or load bin.

The latch of this roll-top cover interlocks with the tailgate with a Grip Lock to prevent the tailgate from being opened. Because this cover is made from aluminium, it is light, but provides ample strength and resistance to impacts – and it is impervious to all weather conditions. The roll-top design allows access from every side of the load bay when the cover is rolled back. It is available in three colours (white, silver, and black) so you can choose the one that best blends in with the colour of your vehicle. A Securi-Lid roll-top cover does not only increase the security of your bakkie, but also looks good.

Electronic Fitment Centre can fit a Securi-Lid cover for your bakkie. We also have a wide selection of other products and accessories to enhance your bakkie even further, like audio systems, parking aids, and alarms/immobilisers. For more information on our Securi-Lid roll-top cover or any of our other products, please peruse our website for details. Choose us for all your vehicle-accessory needs today.
