At Extang, we are passionate about truck bed covers. For over 40 years, our company has been dedicated to engineering and manufacturing the most innovative and highest quality tonneau covers on the market. Our headquarters in Ann Arbor, Michigan is home to our design, engineering, and manufacturing operations, allowing us to proudly stamp many of our products with the phrase “Made in USA.”
Our History
Extang was founded in 1982 by Steve Landsem, an entrepreneur with a love for trucks and a knack for innovation. As an avid outdoorsman and truck owner, Steve saw the need for more functional and protective truck bed covers. At the time, snap-on vinyl covers were the only mainstream option, leaving much to be desired in terms of convenience and weather protection.
Armed with a vision and relentless persistence, Steve pioneered the first tri-fold tonneau cover design and founded Extang to bring his innovations to life. Our early patented designs like the Trifecta and FullTilt transformed the market and raised the bar for truck bed protection.
Over the next four decades, Extang continued to push the limits of truck bed cover engineering. We brought many “firsts” to the automotive aftermarket world:
- First automatic tension control system for roll-up covers
- First snapless, no-drill tonneau cover system
- First hard, folding composite tonneau cover
- First integrated rail system for rock-solid tonneau fit
- First tonneau covers engineered for hot and cold climate performance
Our spirit of innovation and commitment to outstanding product quality have earned us over 40 patents and made Extang a go-to brand for truck owners across America. Today we offer the most comprehensive line of tonneau covers and truck bed accessories on the market.
Our Facility
Our corporate headquarters in Ann Arbor, Michigan houses our executive offices, R&D, engineering, manufacturing, and distribution operations all under one roof. This facilitates efficient collaboration between our departments and gives us unmatched control over product development, testing, and manufacturing.
Our 70,000 square foot facility utilizes cutting-edge technology and processes to design, prototype, and manufacturer tonneau covers with the highest standards of fit, function, and durability. Our in-house tooling and injection molding operations allow us to rapidly turn ideas into physical products that we can rigorously test and perfect.
We also apply lean manufacturing principles to optimize our assembly line operations. This, along with our highly skilled production team, enables us to build tonneau covers with incredible precision and consistency. Extang owners can be confident that every cover coming off our line is engineered and built to the highest quality standards.
Our Products
Extang offers the industry’s most complete selection of tonneau covers with options to fit nearly every truck on the road. Our major tonneau lines include:
Solid Fold Hard Folding Covers
The Solid Fold series pioneered the tri-fold hard tonneau concept and remains our flagship cover line. Solid Fold covers provide the ultimate in durability and security with dent-resistant panels that fold for cargo access. A flush mount design and included rail system deliver a perfect, custom look.
EnCore Hard Rolling Covers
EnCore tonneaus combine the impenetrable protection of a retractable hard cover with smooth, automatic operation. The industrial-grade aluminum slats roll up with the turn of a latch handle to reveal 100% of the truck bed space. Weather-tight seals and durable construction make EnCore covers a premium choice.
ExpressVault Hard Retractable Covers
The pinnacle of truck bed protection, ExpressVault covers feature matte black aircraft-grade aluminum slats that retract fully into a canister vault at the front of the bed. The low-profile design enhances truck aesthetics while the upgraded components provide the ultimate in security.
Trifecta Soft Folding Covers
The original soft tri-fold, the Trifecta series offers quick and easy bed access combined with durable vinyl construction. The foldable panels keep contents secure and protected from the elements while allowing partial or full bed access.
Solid Fold XT
With commercial-grade fabric over a heavy-duty frame, Solid Fold XT covers provide exceptional durability for tough truck applications. The rugged panels fold up for full bed access when needed. Solid Fold XT covers will withstand years of heavy use and keep cargo protected through all weather conditions.
Toolbox Edition Covers
Toolbox tonneaus integrate perfectly with existing crossover and side mount toolboxes. Precision engineering allows the tonneau panels to fold and function flawlessly around mounted tool storage. No need to sacrifice your toolbox to upgrade your truck’s protection.
In addition to our premium tonneaus, we offer a complete line of truck bed accessories including:
- Bed mats
- Bed rails
- Bed caps
- Tailgate seals

Our accessories allow truck owners to fully outfit their truck bed for optimal utility and protection.
