Rattan garden furniture covers
made to measure for every lounge shape
Rattan garden furniture covers made to measure for your corner sofa, garden sofa, lounge chair, lounge set or sun island: we sew every cover from waterproof Cover-PVC to the exact shape of your outdoor lounge furniture - taut over seat and back, with ground clearance and concealed vents, so no condensation builds up underneath. Not a standard size that collects rain and catches the wind, but a made to measure cover that fits.
What shape is your garden lounge?
Which cover your lounge furniture needs depends above all on its shape. A corner sofa has two legs of different lengths, a sofa has a step between seat and back, a sun island is round or semi-circular. A boxy one-size cover fits none of these properly. That is why we make every garden lounge cover in five basic shapes, each to your measurements - whether it is a rattan furniture cover for a corner sofa you already own or a cover for our own outdoor lounge furniture. Custom outdoor sofa covers are sewn the same way as covers for a whole set. For swing seats, beach chairs and other pieces, see our garden furniture covers; the full range is under covers made to measure.
L-shape and corner sofa
Choose this shape if your lounge sits around a corner, whether the corner is on the left or the right and whether the two sides are the same length. The cover follows both sides instead of sagging into a hollow over the corner. A U-shape with two corners is made as a variant of the L-shape. An example from our range: the Elba corner lounge set.
Garden sofa and lounge sofa
The right choice for a straight sofa with two to four seats. The cover follows the backrest, seat and armrests, so no water is left standing on the seat. Matching furniture can be found under outdoor lounge sofas.
Lounge chair
For single, wide lounge chairs. A lounge chair is deeper and lower than a dining chair, so a chair cover will not fit - for dining chairs there is the garden chair cover. If the chairs always stand next to the sofa, a lounge set cover may suit you better. Examples: outdoor lounge chairs.
Lounge set, rectangular or square
One cover over the whole group of sofa, chairs, footstool and coffee table, pushed closely together. This works when the pieces are roughly the same height, as with the Dublin lounge set. Where heights differ a lot, separate covers are the better choice.
Sun island and daybed
For round or semi-circular sun islands and daybeds, with or without a canopy. The cover follows the curve and the canopy, so no water collects on top. One example is the Baluga sun island.
Table, lounger or special shape
For a single table there is the garden table cover, for sunbeds the sun lounger cover. If your lounge fits none of these shapes, send us a photo or a sketch via our service centre.
Why "waterproof" alone is not enough
Anyone looking for a waterproof lounge cover thinks of the fabric first. In practice, fit and construction decide. A waterproof cover that is too large often does a lounge more harm than no cover at all - especially large L-shapes with a lot of fabric between backrest and seat. If you simply throw a big tarpaulin over your lounge furniture, you will run into three problems - and this is how we solve them.
A pool of water on the seat
Loose material sags between backrest and armrests. Rain collects in the hollow, the weight stretches the fabric and pulls in more material, until seams give way or water is forced through the coating. A made to measure cover lies taut over the high points and the water runs off. For the same reason: if the pieces stand apart or at different heights, several covers are better than one big one.
Condensation and mildew stains
A cover that reaches down to the ground seals the lounge in. Moisture rises from the ground, condenses on the inside of the cover and drips back onto cushions and weave. That is why we sew with at least 5 cm ground clearance and at least two concealed vents under flaps or fabric folds: air comes in at the bottom, moisture escapes at the top, and rain runs off over them.
Wind under the cover
Too much air under a loose cover makes it balloon in the wind. It flaps back and forth and chafes both itself and the surface of the furniture. A cut that follows the contours leaves little air underneath. Tension straps with click buckles on legs or corner points and a drawcord in the hem hold the cover in place - without elastic that goes slack and without single eyelets that tear out.
Fabric and seams
We sew from Cover-PVC, a PVC-coated polyester fabric with a 4,000 mm water column - so it is genuinely waterproof, not just water-repellent. The fabric is UV-stabilised, lightfast (grade 7-8), abrasion-resistant with 60,000 Martindale cycles and tested to OEKO-TEX Standard 100. It is deliberately vapour-tight - the ventilation comes from the construction, not from the fabric. Seams are carefully sewn and, on request, additionally sealed with welded tape.
How to measure your lounge
The most common worry with a made to measure cover is that it will not fit in the end. A few simple steps are all it takes - and if in doubt, we check your measurements together with you before production.
From outer edge to outer edge
Always measure length, width and height at the widest and highest point, including armrests and back cushions. If the cushions stay under the cover, measure with the cushions in place.
Corner sofa - each side separately
For an L-shape, measure both sides separately from the outer corner to the end, plus the depth. Tell us whether the corner is on the left or the right, seen from the front.
Back height and seat height
For sofas and corner sofas, measure the height of the backrest and the height of the seat. Only then can the cover follow the step between seat and back instead of sitting over it like a tent.
Sun island with canopy
For a sun island, measure the diameter or the width and depth, plus the height - with a canopy, up to its highest point. A photo helps us capture the shape and the canopy correctly.
