Roof bars

If you’re looking for a roof bar set, then we can imagine it’s convenient to know which are the right ones for your car. First of all, a distinction can be made between roof racks suitable for cars with raised, flushed/solid and without roof rails. You can also choose for specific winter sport roof bars or roof racks for light commercial vehicles such as a van.

What roof bars do I need?

If you want to purchase a set of roof bars, you need to check which ones will fit your car. Therefore, start by checking whether your car has a roof rail or not. Did your car come without roof rails? It´s still possible that your car is equipped with so-called ‘fix points’ or assembly points. A 'Fix Point' is a designated point on a car’s roof or inside the door jamb, specifically designed for mounting a roof rack. However, some cars have neither. For this type of car, there are roof bars that must be assembled using the door jambs of the car. For this type of roof bars, the bars clamp to the car door jambs (the door jamb is the part of the roof you can see when you open the door).

Assembling the roof racks for a flushed or raised roof rail also differs. With a raised roof rail, the roof racks will be mounted around the rod of the roof rail. With a solid roof rail, however, this is not possible because there is no space between the roof of the car and the rails. The roof bars are therefore mounted onto the rails. All roof bar come with a simple, easy to use assembly system and instructions. This way you can put the roof bars on your car in very little time.

It goes without saying that you can also use our number plate check or vehicle selector to easily and accurately find suitable roof bars for your car. Then it is up to you to make your choice. You can choose for instance from a number of brands such as Twinny load, G3 Italia or Mont Blanc. Likely though that you want to know what you should pay attention to before purchasing a roof bar.

Where pay attention to with roof bars?

What you need to pay attention to is the maximum load capacity. Knowing the maximum load capacity of the roof racks, you can determine what and if you can carry the stuff you want to take along. Also, look in the manual of your car for the maximum weight capacity of the roof. The weight of the roof racks and the weight of what these need to carry, may not exceed the maximum weight capacity of the roof. For example, if you intend to place a roof box on the roof, the loaded roof box together with the roof bars may not weigh more than the car manual indicates. Additionally, you can choose between roof bars which come with a lock or not. You also often have a choice between different materials such as steel or aluminium, and colours.

How to fit roof bars

Installation and removing the roof racks is very easy. These days, in general, all roof bars come with a handy assembly system. This means that any person will have the roof bars installed on the roof of their car in minutes. Without doubt, assembly differs per car model and type of roof racks. With your purchase, you will receive a comprehensive manual with which you can easily start fitting the roof bars of your choice.
