Roof Rack Types We Stock and Fit in Newcastle
We install every roof rack type at our Cardiff workshop. Our team confirms the correct system for your vehicle, load requirements and intended use before any order goes in.
Flat Racks and Low-Profile Platforms
Flat platforms sit low on the roofline to minimise wind drag during highway driving. They suit owners who carry swags, jerry cans and general camping gear and want a clean, low-profile setup that does not add significant height to the vehicle.
Roof Trays and Heavy-Duty Platforms
Heavy duty full frame roof trays suit owners who carry maximum loads on demanding off-road tracks. They use a full perimeter frame for maximum strength and suit vehicles fitted with suspension lifts and GVM upgrades where higher roof loads are planned.
Roof Bars and Crossbars
Crossbar systems including Rhino Rack Vortex bars suit owners who want a clean, aerodynamic setup that accepts accessories without committing to a full tray or platform. Crossbars mount to the vehicle’s factory roof rails or directly to the roof using vehicle-specific feet and fit kits.
Roof Baskets and Cages
Roof baskets and cages keep bulky gear, bags and camping equipment contained during driving. The raised perimeter lip prevents gear shifting under braking and cornering without requiring every item to be individually strapped to a flat platform.
Roof Boxes and Pods
Enclosed roof boxes and pods protect clothing, gear and travel luggage from rain, dust and UV exposure during driving. They suit owners who carry gear that cannot get wet and want a lockable, weather-sealed storage option above the vehicle.
Ladder Racks
Ladder racks suit tradies and commercial operators who carry long materials, ladders and pipe above the vehicle. We fit ladder racks across utes, vans and commercial vehicles at our Cardiff workshop. Call us on (02) 4058 1911 to confirm the correct ladder rack setup for your specific work vehicle.
Soft Roof Racks
Soft roof racks suit owners who need a temporary, lightweight rack solution for lighter loads. They attach without permanent mounting hardware and suit vehicles where a permanent rack is not required.
Sports Carriers and Gear-Specific Mounts
We also fit specialised mounts and carriers alongside our roof rack systems.
- Watercraft carriers suit kayaks, canoes and surfboards. We confirm the correct mounting configuration for your specific watercraft and roof rack combination before fitting.
- Bike racks and carriers suit road, mountain and e-bikes. Roof-mounted bike carriers keep bikes secure and accessible without a towbar-mounted rack.
- Ski and snowboard mounts suit owners who travel to alpine destinations during winter and need a secure, weather-exposed mounting solution for skis and snowboards above the vehicle.
- Awning mounts and utility brackets suit owners who want to mount campsite awnings, LED lighting, shovels, axes and jerry can holders directly to their roof rack. We confirm compatible mounting positions for your specific rack and vehicle before fitting.

How We Fit Roof Racks at Our Cardiff Workshop
Every roof rack installation at Opposite Lock Cardiff follows the same process regardless of brand or rack type. Our team confirms the correct rack system for your vehicle’s roof profile, load rating requirements and intended use. We check factory roof rail positions or direct mount points before ordering to confirm the correct fit kit for your specific vehicle. On the day of fitting, our staff mount the rack to the confirmed attachment points, torque every fitting to the manufacturer specification and check rack alignment and load bar levelness before your vehicle leaves our workshop. We also confirm weight distribution for any accessories fitted to the rack at the same time, including awning mounts, bike carriers and jerry can holders.
