Hinged Tonneau Covers

If you've got a truck, adding a tonneau cover to your bed is an absolute must. Not only are tonneaus useful in any situation, they provide loads of essential benefits, including:

• Organized storage for whatever you're hauling in your truck bed, plus the bonus of keeping a lid on loose items
• Coverage from potentially damaging weather conditions, like rain, snow and extreme sun
• Complete coverage of your payload that keeps your cargo out of sight from potential theft
• An immediate improvement in gas mileage with tight, aerodynamic materials covering your otherwise drag-prone open bed
• Sleek looks that range from smooth leather grain patterns to ultra-custom color matched style
  
  Tonneau Cover Storage Basics
  You haul everything from hardware to the occasional load of groceries in the back of your truck. A tonneau cover ( truck bed cover) helps keep a lid on all of it, shielding your cargo from the blowing winds of freeway driving and all kinds of pounding wet weather. It's an easy way to make sure nothing disappears from your bed while you're driving or parked.
  A guide to protecting your gear from the weather with a tonneau cover
  
  Even simple cover over your gear can help prevent weather damage. Truck bed covers take protection a few steps further though, with some ingenious design features. For instance, most tonneau covers employ strategically-placed weather seals that channel water away from your cargo. And, many models use raised and arched support bows to encourage moisture runoff. While no bed cover is completely water-tight, most will do an outstanding job of keeping your gear high and dry in nasty weather.
  
  Tonneau Security: A Quick Reference
  When your cargo is out of sight, it's out of a would-be thief's mind. Truck bed covers make the contents of your truck bed a mystery, giving you confidence that your belongings will be right where you left them.
  
  Beyond simple coverage, tonneau covers offer higher levels of security, depending on the model. Most hinged (lift-up) tonneau covers can be fully-secured using a locking tailgate. Hard top and retractable tonneaus generally have secure key locking systems that latch closed at the tailgate.
  
  With a variety of security measures, a good tonneau cover makes your truck bed far more versatile than ever before - ideal for use as a hauler or hiding spot.
