When you're heading out for a weekend getaway, camping trip, or off-road adventure, limited cargo space in your vehicle can be a challenge. That's where roof racks come in. Roof racks allow you to increase your vehicle’s storage capacity by securely mounting items on the roof. Perfect for carrying luggage, bikes, kayaks, camping equipment and more.
Rola offers tailored roof rack systems designed to fit your vehicle perfectly, whether you need it for everyday use or more demanding tasks. A roof rack not only enhances your vehicle’s functionality but also makes transporting bulky items safe and convenient.
Components of a Roof Rack System
A standard roof rack is made up of three essential parts:
Crossbar: This is the main support bar that runs across your vehicle’s roof, responsible for carrying the load. Rola crossbars feature built-in channels for securing accessories like straps, holders, and carriers. You can choose between an aerodynamic design for a sleek look or a heavy-duty option for commercial use.
End Supports: These parts connect the crossbar to the mounting kit, providing a stable link between your vehicle and the roof rack. End supports vary in design based on your vehicle’s specifications and the type of crossbar used.
Mounting Kit: This is the foundation of the roof rack, designed specifically for your vehicle’s make, model, and year. Rola mounting kits ensure a secure fit, whether you're attaching to roof rails, door frames, or anchor points.
When installing and using your roof rack, it’s important to follow the instructions and recommended load limits for safety. Properly securing your load with suitable straps and ties will help ensure a safe journey.
FAQ's
What are the benefits of using roof racks?
Roof racks are perfect for anyone wanting to carry large equipment on their vehicle. Storing these items on the roof maintains easy access to all parts of your car and maximises your car's storage potential. With a wide range of specialised storing solutions you can easily hold bikes, watersport equipment and boxes to keep your items protected from the elements.
How much weight can a roof rack hold?
The maximum weight you can carry will always be the lowest rated part of your roof carrying system. Tray’s normally have the highest carrying capacity, but these capacities are influenced whether stationary, travelling on road or off road. Most roof racks are designed to carry more than the vehicle it's attached to. This leaves the vehicle's carrying capacity which is normally the weakest part of the system. Each individual vehicle has its own load bearing capacity and this should in most cases be used at the carrying capacity of the vehicle.
