The Pace Edwards BedLocker is an electric retractable cover. Aluminum slats roll into a low profile canister at the front of the bed, driven by a motor that answers to either of the two wireless key fobs in the box. Press a fob button while the cover is moving and an electromagnetic brake stops it there, so you can leave part of the bed open. The finish is black powder coat over aluminum. Drain tubes in the canister carry rainwater out rather than into the bed.
What's Included:
Aluminum slat cover and canister assembly

Find your truck. Select the year, make, model and bed length to see the BedLocker part number that matches, along with the rail option for your bed. This cover is offered in 16 truck and bed applications, each with its own part number and hardware.
Features
Runs off a key fob Two wireless remotes come with the cover. One button opens it and another closes it. The motor does the pulling, which changes how loading works when it is raining or when both your arms are full.
Stops anywhere on the rails An electromagnetic brake sits in the canister. Tap any button on the remote while the cover is retracting and it halts at that point, so you can cover the front of the bed and leave the back open for long items.
Manual release if power drops A release handle is built into the drive system. If the truck loses power or a fuse goes, you pull the handle and work the cover by hand instead of being locked out of your own bed.
Water leaves through drain tubes Rain that works past the slats ends up in the canister, and drain tubes at the bottom take it out from there. Cargo stays dry and the canister does not fill up over a wet week.
Rigid aluminum slats, powder coated The deck is aluminum slat built, powder coated black for corrosion resistance. The canister keeps a low profile at the bulkhead, so the cover reads as part of the truck instead of a box bolted behind the cab.
Clamps on, no drilling Most applications mount with clamps onto the bed rails, so the bed does not get drilled. The rails and hardware come in the kit. Bed liners sometimes need modifying, which the instructions cover.

Installation
Type: Clamp on rails, no drilling on most applications · Time: Not stated by the manufacturer · Tools: Included clamps and hardware, plus basic hand tools · Difficulty: Moderate, the motor has to be wired to the battery
Two rails clamp to the bed, then the canister and cover sit at the bulkhead. Nothing is drilled on most trucks. The motor has to be wired to the vehicle battery, so budget time for routing the loom and for the drain tubes at the bottom of the canister. Some bed liners need modifying first, and the paperwork in the kit spells out what to trim.

About Pace Edwards
Pace Edwards builds retractable tonneau covers, the kind that roll into a canister at the bulkhead instead of folding or rolling up as fabric. The range splits into manual covers pulled by hand and electric covers like this one, where a motor does the work.
Two electric models are offered. The BedLocker and the UltraGroove Electric are both made in the United States. The manual retractables in the same catalog include the JackRabbit, the Full Metal JackRabbit, the SwitchBlade and the UltraGroove.
Warranty length tracks the model. The electric covers carry seven years with proration after five, while the all metal manual covers are backed for the life of the cover to the first owner on the original truck. Aluminum construction and no drill mounting run through the whole line.

BedLocker fast facts on a Ram
A short overview filmed on a Ram 1500, running a little over a minute. It shows the cover opening and closing on the truck and points out the canister at the bulkhead, which is the quickest way to see how much bed space it uses.
Full install on a Ram
The long version, around twelve minutes of install footage on a Ram. Rails, canister and the wiring run are all covered, so watch it before you decide whether to fit the cover yourself or hand it to a shop.
BedLocker compared with the JackRabbit
A side by side against the JackRabbit, the manual retractable from the same brand. Under two minutes, and useful if you are still weighing the motor and remotes against a cover you work by hand.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers on specs, fit and support
How do I open it if the truck has no power?
Pull the drive system release handle. It disconnects the motor so the cover can be moved by hand, which is what you want after a dead battery or a blown fuse. The instructions in the kit cover putting it back once power is restored.
Can I leave the cover half open?
Yes. Press any button on the remote while the cover is moving and the electromagnetic brake locks it where it is. That works at any point along the rails, so a load that hangs over the tailgate can still sit under a covered front half of the bed.
What happens to rain water?
It drains. Water that gets into the canister leaves through tubes built into the bottom of it, which is why the cover has to be installed with those tubes clear and routed. Keep them free of leaves and the canister empties itself.
Will it fit a bed that already has a liner or a cargo management system?
Often yes, with the right option selected. The fitment list carries separate parts for beds with cargo management systems, RamBox beds, Titan boxes and CarbonPro liners. Drop in bed liners may need modifying where the rails sit, and the sheet included with the cover explains that.
Can I wash the truck with the cover on?
Normal washing is fine. Keep the pressure washer off the canister opening and the slat joints, since neither is sealed against a direct jet. Dry the cover before you close it if you can, and clear grit out of the rails now and then so the slats keep moving smoothly.
How is this different from the manual retractable covers?
The hardware is close. The difference is what moves the cover. A manual retractable is pushed and pulled by hand with a spring assist, while the BedLocker runs on a motor and stops wherever you let go of the button. The manual models also lock with a key rather than a brake.
