The present invention provides an external load carrier system for a vehicle, such as a car or van (figure 2A), and more particularly a mechanism for securing a load to the load carrier. The system provides a pair of clamping members 110 where each clamping member is supported on a rail 108 and includes an upright member 112, 113 for engaging the load. At least one of the clamping members is laterally movable with respect to the vehicle towards the other of the clamping members by the action of a transmission, said transmission preventing the clamping member from moving in the opposite direction. Therefore, a load may be clamped between the clamping members. The transmission may be released so as to allow the movable clamping member to move in an opposite release direction, said actuation possibly being operated remotely from the clamping members without a user having to access the roof of the vehicle or relinquishing control of the load while securing it.
