The idea for this locking system was born in 2011 from the need to simply lock all windows on my fiberglass canopy, as a tradesman with all my tools in the rear of my ute it was a risk not to lock all the canopy windows even when going to the shop for a couple of minutes, but locking the 6 individual locks with a key which at times didn`t want to fit into the lock was just too hard.

Now all I have to do is push a button and all windows are secured, whether the handles on the windows are in the closed or open position

I found that sometimes when I was at a jobsite I needed the canopy open but the car doors locked, so I have 2 remotes on my key ring, one for the car doors and one for the canopy.

The kits come made for 1,2 or 3 windows, with or without a remote control and all kits come with protection brackets.

The locking kit can be connected to the central locking of the vehicle, depending on the vehicle and how sensitive the ECU is to extra load, 2 relays may be need to be installed, 1 for lock and 1 for unlock. Not all vehicles need the extra relays and your auto electrician should be able to advise you. (these relays are not included in the kit and have to be supplied by the installer) It is recommended that an auto electrician install this option.

The locking kits are canopy specific not the vehicle specific

I am now manufacturing and selling this locking system in a kit form with all mounting accessories, controls and locks for either professional installation or DIY. The installer will have to supply some cable, connectors and cable protection, I have written some installation instructions on a separate page on this website. I have also made protection brackets which will help protect the lock actuators being damage by cargo moving around in the rear of the ute and these are included as part of the kit.

The above description relates to our locking kits that suit ARB Classic Canopies, some early Flexiglass Canopy models, Some EGR Canopies, TJM & Crown Canopies and Aeroklas Canopy for a Ford Ranger.

From 2018 I made a new product to suit compression latches, these types of latches are used for many applications from canopies, toolboxes and caravans to name a few. These kit are available for both the small and large compression latches.
