Does Toyota tonneau hardcover still offer lockable/opening front panel? Any others?

    I saw that the official Toyota hard tonneau used to be able to open the front panel leaving the two rear panels down and had a keyed lockable handle.

    Is that still the case?

    It does not look like it from this picture:

    Was this feature removed or is the lock/handle recessed now and less obvious?

    Are there any covers that you can open the front cover independently from the other two? Preferably locking.

    I have a Diamondback HD cover which locks separately on the front and back sections and can haul up to 1600lbs on to of it. I highly recommend it.

    Did you install D-Rings to tie down your cooler? My Diamondback HD doesn't have tie down points there.

    Diamondback also offers a few different lid configurations and in all of them the lids lock on their own.

    I have a 2018 with the toyota cover and it does not have the front folding panel. Honestly for the price of it I would buy an aftermarket one if I had to do it all over again.

    Thanks for the great responses! A lot of good choices here for me to research.

    FP it looks great and I think it may be a cover that lasts as long as I expect the truck will. Does it allow the factory tracks to be used with their cam cleats? Can 1 person easily remove it? With or without tools? How long to remove and reinstall?

    They have options for with or without the factory deck rail system.

    One person can remove it and it doesn’t take that long to remove. I personally haven’t removed mine since I’ve put it on, but I have a couple buddies that bought them after they saw mine and they have. Said it was quick.
