Does the cover take up space inside the truck bed?The truck bed cover manufactured by TREK Industries Inc. has its own storage hood that does not take up valuable space inside the truck bed. The truck bed cover hood uses about six inches of space on the front top of the truck bed. The truck bed cover is completely out of the way yet easily accessible for quick load protection. Back to TopHow does the Allumi-Tech® cover roll up?Some truck bed covers must be rolled up by hand causing the operator to be covered in dust or dirt, or retract with springs which can lose their tension. TREK’s truck bed cover rolls up and is tightened using the handle which is enclosed in the cover storage hood. The truck bed cover can be tightened to desired tension because of our ratchet gear, thus eliminating collapsing under heavy loads of rain or snow. Is the truck bed cover lockable?The handle to operate the truck bed cover is key locked in the storage hood. The truck bed cover attaches to a security clip provided so that your tail gate may be locked. This tail gate lock may also be bypassed for quick access to your truck bed. Back to TopHow strong is the truck bed cover soft tonneau material?The Alumi-Tech has no removable bows or crossbars. TREK’s truck bed cover has fiberglass bars attached to the underside of the cover material for a smooth and solid surface, leaving the truck bed wide open for other uses. The truck bed cover material is a vinyl tonneau with a polyester weave backing and has a high tear and tensil strength and is weather, abrasion and rot resistant. No need to worry about collapsing under rain or snow. The Alumi-Tech® truck bed cover has been tested to handle extreme loads. It is completely weather tight. No drainage hoses or reservoir tanks to plug with ice, dirt and debris. Our unique patented drainage system incorporated in the side rails allows moisture to exit, but not enter the truck bed. This unique truck bed cover has been designed, tested and manufactured in Saskatchewan, Canada for over ten years and is tough enough to withstand all types of weather including the rigors of prairie winter.
Back to TopIs the truck bed cover waterproof?Many manufacturers of truck bed covers claim to offer waterproof covers when in fact they are, at best, "weatherproof." Only the Alumi-Tech truck bed cover is truly waterproof. There are no drainage hoses or reservoir tanks to plug with ice, dirt and debris. The truck bed cover manufactured by TREK Industries Inc. has a unique patented drainage system incorporated into the side rails. The truck box cover rails are mounted on top of the truck box and allows moisture to exit, but not enter the truck bed. Back to TopIs the truck bed cover compatible with a fifth wheel trailer, tool box or sleeper?Yes. When pulling a fifth wheel trailer, TREK’s truck bed cover may be closed part way with the use of the optional fifth wheel clips. Special models of our truck bed over can be manufactured to fit behind your sleeper, tool box, etc.
Back to TopHow easy is it to install the Alumi-tech truck bed cover?The truck bed cover manufactured by TREK Industries Inc. comes with excellent installation instructions. Most models of the Alumi-Tech truck bed cover are clamped on so there is no drilling required. The complete cover weighs only 65 lbs. and can be easily installed in about an hour. Back to TopWill the truck bed cover operate in all types of weather?TREK’s truck bed cover was designed, tested and manufactured in Saskatchewan, Canada since 1988. The fact that our truck bed cover was designed with a soft top, rather than a hard top, allows complete flexibility and greater tolerances in the side rail system. This very important feature allows the truck bed cover to operate under any type of weather including rain, snow and ice. Once tightened to desired tension, the Alumi-Tech truck bed cover is strong enough to stand on (although we don’t recommend it!) and because of the fiberglass bars attached to the underside of the material it will not collapse under heavy loads of snow or rain. Back to TopWhere can I buy a truck bed cover manufactured by Trek Industries?You can purchase your Alumi-Tech truck bed cover from a local dealer or, in the event of no local dealer in your area, direct from the factory.

Back to TopHow does the price of the Trek truck bed cover compare to other tonneau covers on the market today?The price of an Alumi-Tech truck bed cover is competitively priced. It retails for less than most all retractable hard top covers on the market today. With North American wide shipping, you can have a truck bed cover from TREK Industries Inc. delivered to your doorstep for under $1,000 CDN or $850.00 USD. Although more money than the Velcro soft tonneau covers, the Alumi-Tech Truck Bed Cover should not be compared with these basic roll up covers. The Alumi-Tech is a true retractable truck bed cover with an engineered rail system, completely lockable and waterproof. It’s built to last and built for complete operator ease of use and confidence.
