Roof Systems
Roof Racks, Rails, Cross Bars and Carrying Systems
Increase the carrying capacity of a pickup or 4x4 with a roof system – consisting of roof rails, cross bars and racks. Roof rails extend from the front to back of the roof whereas roof bars/cross bars are fixed across from side to side; a roof carrying system compromising of both is a roof rack. We stock a comprehensive range of aerodynamic roof accessories to fit pickups, SUVs and other 4x4s, which are supplied with fixing instructions.
Vehicle Roof Systems
Roof Racks
A full carrying system for vehicle roofs to give the maximum load capacity, versatility and increased fixing points. For a vehicle without factory fitted roof rails, a pair of these and also a pair of cross bars is required. Basket-style pickup roof racks are available from our exclusive Predator brand. Buying advice for the optimum vehicle specific roof system is always on offer if required – just call or message our friendly sales team.
Roof Rails
Sometimes referred to as longitudinal rails as they fit from front to back of the vehicle roof, roof rails are used for fixing points for adding cross bars to give a full roof rack system, and as additional lashing points when securing cargo. Browse our roof rail pairs which are available in original silver or black finishes, made from high quality alloys, aluminium and tough composites.
Roof Bars
Supplied with the mount, our sets of heavy-duty roof bars fix onto the roof by sturdy lockable side clamps (they do not require roof rails). Most often made from aluminium or aluminium alloy bars and automotive grade ABS polymers for a lightweight but strong carrying system. We have a range of custom shaped roof bars for most pickups and SUVs, which are all simple and fast to install at home in a matter of minutes.
Roof Cross Bars
Roof cross bars sit across the roof from side to side – usually affixed to roof rails or else are clamped on (in some types). These give the support, strength and functionality to carry commercial equipment such as ladders or timber, or leisure items like canoes, tents, roof boxes or a cycle rack. In stock for all models of pickups, we also have a range for SUVs/4WDs.
Hardtop and Tonneau Roof Systems
Hardtop Cross Bars
Compatible with pickup hardtop canopies, these roof/cross bars are designed to fit across hardtop roof rails or clamp onto existing T channels. We stock good quality roof bars to fit Aeroklas and Carryboy hardtop canopies which have a high security lock on system.
Hardtop Roof Rails
If a replacement is required for a damaged factory fitted canopy rail or to enhance a pickup with a hardtop carrying system by installing cross/roof bars, we supply custom-designed hardtop canopy roof rails. All made from premium durable materials for quick home delivery and simple fitment.
Tonneau Cross Bars
For optimised carrying capacity in conjunction with the use of a tonneau cover, we have a choice of cross bars that are fitted on top of roller shutter or lift-up covers. The roller shutter cross bars remain in place when the cover is retracted and in the case of lift-up covers, they are adjustable and easily removable. These can be retro fitted if the tonneau cover is already in place.
