Video Transcript for Yakima Same Key System - SKS - Lock Cores Review
Jake: Hey guys, it's Jake here with etrailer. Today, we're going to be taking a look at the Yakima Lock Cores. These are going to be made for your roof rack to be able to lock into your roof. When you buy them from the factory, they're just going to come with plastic lock cores, and it's not going to secure it to your roof while you're not with it. For the example, with our SkyLine Towers, they're very, very easily removable. Just pull back and lift up and your bars are going to be gone.
So by replacing these plastic lock cores with the locking cores, you're not going to have to worry about anyone stealing or tampering with your roof rack. In your kit, you're going to get two keys that are keyed to unlock and lock all of your lock cores, and you're going to get one installation key. This is the key dish we're going to use to push the lock cores into place.To start with, we need to take our flat key and pop our plastic lock cores out. And to get our lock cores into place, we just need to take it, you're going to line it up with this hole. So right here is where you're going to see that little indentation that you're going to stick your lock core into place, where that little knob is going to stick down inside there.
Just push it into place.Now we can take the tip of our finger and hold our lock core and pull our control key out. And we can take one of our two keys that has our notches in it and lock up our bars. And you'll repeat this process for all four of your foot packs. Now, as I said, your kit is going to come with two keys. If you we're to lose them, there are replacement keys available.
On the back there's going to be a letter followed by three numbers. It's a good idea when you first get your kit to write that series of numbers down, so that you know which key is yours, and you can order them here at etrailer.Now, one little helpful piece of advice I'd like to provide you all with is, if you plan on leaving your rack on your vehicle during the winter time or whatever you might be putting your lock cores in, it's a good idea that when winter time is approaching, you spray a little bit of lubricant on the inside of your lock, not only to help your lock work properly, but it's going to prevent any water from building up inside, potentially turning into ice. I had a situation one time where I needed to get into my toolbox for a side job and I couldn't get in because water had gotten into my lock and froze solid, and I couldn't get my key in. But with all that being said, that's going to do it for our look and installation of the Yakima Lock Cores..

I ordered lock cores for a Yakima bike rack that I had previously purchased from eTrailer. In both cases, the products arrived promptly, in good condition and I installed them with no problem. I very much like doing business with this company.

I had lost my key to my roofrack. I gave the guys at etrailer.com a called and we're extremely helpful. Pointed me in the right direction and had us on our way again. Thank you for the awesome service

Worked perfect, took a long time to get.
by: Dark08/03/2016
They still work fine for what they are. I think it is still a design flaw to have to lock the units before being able to take the keys out. But that's a manufacture problem not a problem with the cylinders themselves.
Still may be priced a bit high for what the generics sell for, the quality may be worth it. I haven't bought the generics.

Work just right in my Yakima racks.

Still right!
by: Rob B.07/12/2015
So simple and so easy to use. I simply nipped it in the hole and twisted the key. Good to go!! It's a great addition to the bike rack since it gives you the peace of mind that no one can steal your bike off the rack not take the rack off
the roof. Most Excellent!!!

Great service, walked me through on the phone and got what I needed in 10 days.
by: Jonathan05/05/2014
The keys were delivered very quickly and i was able to replace the lock on my cargo unit. The instructions in were very clear and it only took a few minutes to switch out the locks.

A must have for roof rack operations. I have the Jaylow Kayak Carrier and being able to lock it down is essential.
by: Arman07/27/2020
It fit my Yakima Skybox 16.
by: Mark W.07/16/2019
Work as intended. Don't like these locks not being included with the racks. The prices you pay for a rack it should include the security side as well. That's why I am only leaving 3 stars.
by: Mike G06/09/2015
Quick shipping, product on point! Easy instructions, took like 30 seconds to replace two locks! Super quick and easy!
by: Mei X09/17/2020
Installation was quick and easy after I figured out black plastic plug was on the rack and not the lock core!
by: Steve01/29/2021
I had a problem with the lock set that comes in two. Out of stock. So we where able to use two single locks. And two single keys plus the master insertion key. Great customer service. Fast delivery.

a must have,unless you want to remove bike carrier from car every time you use it to prevent theft.
by: Peter10/28/2022
Great purchase. Much better connection than the original and no hassle on threading a connection.
by: Marshal C07/10/2014
Product was delivered and received as promised. This is my third purchase from etrailer.com without incident.
by: Bob I.06/16/2012
Just a simple way to lock the forks down to inhibit an opportunistic crook who wants a bicycle. A determined crook with tools could always figure a way. Also, it provides a way of preventing an accidental release of the skewer pressure.
by: DR Day05/11/2017
The replacement locks for my Yakama SpaceCase work great. Easy to replace. I'm very happy with the results of this transaction.
