Fiberglass tonneau that fits between rails?

Hey guys. Does anybody out there know of a company that makes a fiberglass tonneau cover that fits between the rails. I like the Craftec covers but they are not lockable or hard cover. I am a plumber and sometimes have tools in the bed. I looked into gaylord covers but they hang outside the rails.

Any help appreciated!

Re: Fiberglass tonneau that fits between rails?

These are bed covers. A tonneau would be made of fabric. Even the flush bed covers that once were made never sealed rain out so well. From a building perspective you can see why. I like that clean fluch look, too, but Gaylord's covers will keep your tools dry and save. You can get past the hang over edge look and it really is an awful sleek look for a working truck. I don't live in a high crime area and just use a tonneau cover. Yeah, someone could just unsnap and steal my stuff (or slash w/knife), if they knew it was in there. I never had a problem, though.
