The Benefits of Securi-Lid

South Africans love their bakkies. Bakkies originally had space for two to three people and were meant purely for carrying large loads. In addition, optional 4-wheel-drive systems enabled them to go off-road. A bakkie was a robust workhorse that could handle tough terrain and traverse poor roads with a full load. However, since bakkies have become so popular among the locals, they are increasingly used as daily drivers, especially since the advent of the family-friendly 4/5-seater double cab that brought with it car-like comfort and luxuries. The Securi-Lid is the perfect addition to the single-cab workhorse and family double cab alike.

On a farm or in an industrial setting such as a mining or construction site, bakkies are used for moving people and cargo around. However, with their transformation into luxury double-cab family vehicles, they are now also regularly driven to the shops, school, and campsite, or for transporting furniture or garden refuse. The biggest problem with using a bakkie like a normal car is that whatever one puts on the back is unsecured and can be lost or stolen, especially when the vehicle is stationary.

The Securi-Lid Difference

A Securi-Lid is an excellent way to protect your bakkie’s load. This aluminium roll-top cover secures your bakkie’s loading bay. This cover is fitted on top of the loading bay to avoid having to make any alterations to the bakkie’s frame or bodywork. The Securi-Lid is a useful add-on that enhances the functionality and security of your vehicle. This lid interlocks into the tailgate of your bakkie through a Grip Lock that secures the lid in place when locked. With roller functionality, the aluminium lid takes up little space too.

Since the lid rolls open, it does not limit access to the loading bay from either side of the bakkie. As it mounts on top of the bay, you can still completely fill your load box. The side rail of the Securi-Lid features an integrated channel that accommodates other accessories being mounted onto the rear of your vehicle. The mechanism is spring-operated and carries a 3-year warranty to ensure that your bakkie’s load is always safely secured. The Securi-Lid is available in three colours to blend in with your vehicle’s and add to its overall appearance.
