It says the lid is lockable. I see the hole to lock it in the front, but not in the lid...so can it be locked? How? Do drill hole in roof yourself?

You are correct. no hole in the box lid. Maybe they think you should hang a lock from the loop so it LOOKS locked...

We did not drill anything. We just used a small chain and locked it that away

It came warped and I had no box to return. Got ripped. I did no drilling just assembling following directions. Expensive mistake

The bottom part you see is the base. You will need to drill the required size hole in your roof to connect it to the dial inside which powers it and allows you to turn it in different directions from inside. Comes with all hardware needed including template for drilling and instructions. You just need a good sealant so you don't get water leaks. I am not the most mechanical person and was able to install it fairly easily.

I don't know if this is correct, but it's how I did it. After I unscrewed the lid, I secured the can and punctured the top with a screwdriver. Be careful!

yes, the vent opens manually by way of a knob inside. the lid closes firmly when closed completely, no need to "lock it" the vent will only operate when the top is open to a certain space. Mine works very well, I really love it.

The lid can be tricky, but once you figure it out, it's very easy and it stays very air tight. The lid of course is removed by pressing in the middle of it until it pops and then it easily lifts off. To put the lid back on, put the lid on the counter top so the inside of the lid (with the plastic insert) is facing up. Press down on the middle of the lid, returning the center to its original position. Then you are able to put the lid back on the can and press and it will snap securely in its position. Hope this helps.

Yes, just drill a hole through the lid. There's no provision for locking the rotation, but it hasn't been an issue for me.

The grey latch on the front is what locks the lid. If that is undone and it still won't open it is likely damaged and the metal rod that "pops" the lid isn't working correctly.

It is my understanding locking the lid is an option. It's good for carrying the pot to another location.

It doesn't lock on it's own. The latches to open are on the underside of the cover. The only way to open is to open the tailgate. If the tailgate can be locked then this will effectively lock the cover.

I don't know what you my locking insert. There is a magnet that holds the lid closed. You would have to drill holds to insert a locking insert, I would think, though I am not sure.

The very top of it twists to unlock and entire roof comes off to fill it. Then you twist and lock it back in place. As talented as squirrels are they don't have enough strength to twist it off.

Mine doesn't have a drain hole. Yes you could drill one easy. The lid seals pretty good, I've never gotten any water in it. WAIT! I can't believe I never thought of this, you want to use it as a cooler? Nice. Won't stay cold very long without any insulation and in the beating sun. But I like the way you think!

Large wooden roof just sits on top....I originally put mine on hinges for cleaning etc... but then decided it was easier to just take it right off. It is not attached

There should be a plug that goes into the opening then the lid is screwed on. I use mine in my small caf and have not had any problems with it at all.

I am not aware of any option for a lid. There is a ridge that looks like it was meant for a lid but I think you might have to talk to the manufacturer about this question.

Extremely easy. Just unscrew the lock downs and lift the lid. Be sure you have the lid facing the trailer when on the road just in case you don't screw the lock downs enough. That way they won't flap in the wind.

It's made of plastic and all holes are pre-drilled. You can always drill new holes and not use the existing holes. The existing holes will be sealed once you place the lid on the sump tank if you don't use them.
