Most secure tonneau cover for urban parking

[Spencerg]

I park my truck outside in a busy part of the city, and I’m concerned about theft. I need a tonneau cover that locks well and ideally can’t be opened easily without the tailgate unlocked. Looks are less important—security is everything. Anyone know a good model that’s held up in that kind of environment?

I live in a similar situation and ended up going with the Revolver X4TS, and it’s been a great decision. What I like about it is that while it rolls up like a soft cover, it has reinforced aluminum slats that lock automatically along the rails when closed. That means it’s just as secure as a folding hard cover, but way easier to open and close on the fly. The low profile makes it less of a target, and because it locks with the tailgate, you can’t just peel it up like some cheaper ones. I’ve left tools in there overnight and never had an issue. It’s also stood up to rain and wind without leaking or shifting. You don’t get the full folding access of a tri-fold, but it’s way faster to open when you’re juggling gear or in a rush. Installation took me about 90 minutes and didn’t require anything special. It’s a great combo of security and convenience if you’re in and out of the city all the time.
