That lock, which is this piece here is just going to slide over the top there, secures with this key which is included and that's going to cover this Allen bolt so no one can take that off and leave with all your stuff. It's also going to come with eight of these little flanges that will go over the bolt to disperse that pressure as this gets tightened down so it doesn't cause any damage to your bed lining or your truck itself.
