Tonneau covers for the 2005-2021 Nissan Frontier crew-standard: what to know first
The 2005-2021 Nissan Frontier Crew Cab with the Standard Bed has a 59.5 in floor length and a 44.4 in wheel well width. Of the twelve tonneau covers checked, nine have a part number tied to this bed, none fit only with a condition, and three have no part number listed for it. Those three reflect a gap in the maker's own list, not a measured non-fit. The Frontier also came as a King Cab with a 73.3 in bed, and the Crew Cab Long Bed is 73.3 in as well, so a cover made for either of those is a different part. The truck offers an optional spray-in bedliner and a Utili-track system, optional on the SV and standard on the PRO-4X. Every cover here installs by clamp-on with no drilling.

Rack Attack lists part 448506 for the 2005-2021 Nissan Frontier and Suzuki Equator with a 5'0" bed. Rack Attack's list names a 4'11" bed for 2005, and JB's Power Centre also ties 448506 to 4'11", so the bed length is not settled. Confirm with the maker before ordering.
The maker has no mostplus-frp-4-fold part listed for this truck and bed length. That means no match is listed, not that a non-fit has been confirmed.

How to choose for this bed
Nine covers fit this bed, and they come in three types. Seven are soft roll-ups: six ACCESS lines (Limited Edition 23179, Original 13179, LORADO 43179, LITERIDER 33179, VANISH 93179 and TONNOSPORT 22030179) plus the Tyger T1 Soft Roll-Up, TG-BC1N9034. One is a soft tri-fold, the Tyger T3, TG-BC3N1028. One is a hard quad-fold, the BAKFlip MX4 (GEN 3), BAK-448506. No hard tri-fold has a part number for this bed.
On load, only the BAKFlip MX4 lists a figure among the covers that fit, at 400 lb distributed load. The two MOSTPLUS covers list 350 lb, but neither has a part number for this bed. Weight is listed for two covers: 24.2 lb for the T1 and 30.8 lb for the T3. Warranty runs from 2 to 5 years. TONNOSPORT carries 2 years, LITERIDER and VANISH carry 3, and the other six carry 5.
Factory options change the answer in one place. The ACCESS finder and the Tyger listings both say these covers fit with or without Utili-Tracks, so the SV and PRO-4X track system does not change the part number. None of the makers says whether the spray-in bedliner changes fit. VANISH is sold in vinyl under the listed part and in canvas under the part with a -0.1 suffix.
Watch-outs before you buy
Three covers have no part number for this bed: the Tyger T4 Flip-Up Low Profile Hard Alloy Four-Fold, the MOSTPLUS FRP Hard 3-Fold and the MOSTPLUS FRP Hard 4-Fold. The makers list no product for this bed, so their fit is open rather than ruled out.
The BAKFlip MX4 needs the most care. One retailer lists part 448506 for a 5'0" bed, but its list names a 4'11" bed for 2005, and a second retailer also ties 448506 to 4'11". Our source for it is a search-result title and summary rather than the full retailer page, so confirm the bed length on the listing before ordering.
Before buying, match the part number to the 5 ft Frontier bed, not the 73.3 in bed, and confirm the cab is a Crew Cab.
Why a tonneau cover fits or does not
Toyota utility track beds: some covers fit with or without the track. The exceptions: none observed
No SKU for this vehicle and bed length in the maker's own list; recorded as "no" with basis "no SKU in brand list", which is not a measured non-fit. The exceptions: a person should confirm before the site states a hard no
A cover SKU fits only the bed length it is made for; nominal bed lengths are rounded differently by makers (for example 5.5 ft, 5'7", 5'5", 67 in all mean the F-150 short bed). The exceptions: none observed

Before you buy tonneau covers for a Nissan Frontier
Which tonneau covers fit a 2005-2021 Nissan Frontier Crew Cab Standard Bed?
Nine: six ACCESS roll-ups (23179, 13179, 43179, 33179, 93179, 22030179), the Tyger T1 TG-BC1N9034, the Tyger T3 TG-BC3N1028 and the BAKFlip MX4 (GEN 3) BAK-448506. Three other covers have no part number listed.
How long is the bed on a Frontier Crew Cab with the Standard Bed?
The floor length is 59.5 in and the wheel well width is 44.4 in. The Tyger listing for this bed reads "5' (59") Bed", and the ACCESS finder calls it the Frontier 5ft Bed.
Will a tonneau cover fit my Frontier with the Utili-track system?
The ACCESS finder lists its parts as "w/ or w/o Utili-Tracks", and the Tyger T1 and T3 listings say they fit models with or without the Utility Track System. Utili-track is optional on the SV and standard on the PRO-4X.
Is there a hard tonneau cover for the Crew Cab Frontier Standard Bed?
One: the BAKFlip MX4 (GEN 3), a hard quad-fold, part BAK-448506, with a 400 lb distributed load rating and a 5-year warranty. Retailers disagree on its bed length, so verify it. The Tyger T4 and both MOSTPLUS hard covers have no part number listed.
Do these Frontier tonneau covers need drilling?
No. Every cover here is a clamp-on install with no drilling, including the three without a part number for this bed. No hardware list is published, so read the maker's instructions for the part you pick.
Which Frontier covers list a weight?
Two. The Tyger T1 Soft Roll-Up lists 24.2 lb and the Tyger T3 Soft Tri-Fold lists 30.8 lb. No weight is listed for the ACCESS covers or the BAKFlip MX4.
