Kari-Tek canoe roof racks
I needed a roof rack system to lift my cedar strip Canadian canoe onto a VW T5 Camper. The Kari-Tek system does this perfectly. Easy for one person to lift the canoe if I'm out on my own. And! The engineer who designed the system actually fitted it to my van! Picking up the van after the fitting was such a quality experience!

I recently needed a spare part for my Kari Tek roof rack. The service from Teal was really good. They were prompt and helpful in replying to my e mail, and dispatched the part promptly as well with a nice friendly email and phone call to let me know the time scale for it arriving. Really impressed!
Universal Fixing Kit
I emailed my request to Kari TeK who replied promptly and then answered a further query. I then orderd the parts by email, the parts arrived promptly and fitted fine.
Great product great service.
I worked with Michele to get the parts I needed to replace on my high-lift.
I live in Oregon, USA so getting the parts right the first time was important.
I just finished the installation and I’m happy with how the rack is working again.
You make a great product. People ask me about my rack all the time and they are amazed how it works. There’s nothing quite like it here in the US. I’m really surprised I don’t see more people using them. The cost point is good.
