Contractors can secure their equipment, such as ladders, to a rooftop rack with BOLT Cable Locks. The product operates with the vehicle ignition key. BOLT Locks use specially crafted tumblers to memorize a vehicle’s ignition key the first time it is inserted to a lock. One complete turn of the key moves the tumblers to fit that specific key, the vehicle ignition key.
The BOLT Cable Lock is a 6-in. long coil wire coated with ¼-in. thick black vinyl. The company’s patented lock has a double ball bearing lock mechanism, is weatherproof and is designed with a stainless steel lock shutter to keep dirt and moisture out. A plate tumbler sidebar prevents picking and bumping and the auto return spring locks automatically when the key is removed.

- Year/make/model specific and numerous locks can be used with one vehicle ignition key
- Spring-loaded plate tumblers move up and down to match the key once the ignition key is inserted into the lock cylinder

“The one-key convenience of our innovative BOLT Cable Lock is attractive to any type of contractor because they don’t have to carry around a keychain loaded with multiple keys, they only need their vehicle ignition key to operate our lock,” explained Jason Buckles, sales account manager for BOLT Lock.
“And keeping ladders secured to the rooftop ladder rack when driving is as important as keeping them from being stolen.”
The locks are year/make/model specific and are available for most General Motors, Ford, RAM/Jeep and Toyota vehicles on the road today.
