Custom tapered outdoor furniture cover – Design 8 (sloping front)

Design 8 is specifically made for furniture and outdoor equipment that has a rectangular top but a lower front height and higher back height, creating a sloping face. This shape is ideal when a normal rectangular cover would look loose, baggy or would puddle water on top.

Your cover is tailored to your exact dimensions, ensuring a neat fit that follows the slope cleanly from back to front. Enter the four simplified measurements shown in the diagram, and our UK-based workshop will sew your custom tapered cover using high-performance outdoor fabrics.

What Design 8 is perfect for

• Tapered outdoor storage boxes
• Outdoor appliances with a sloping face
• Generators, pumps and small utility machines
• Fire pit tables with angled sides
• Garden feature units that are taller at the back than the front
• Lightweight tables or equipment where a snug, angled cover is needed

How to measure a tapered rectangular shape (Design 8)

Measure in centimetres along the diagram lines:

• (1) Height – the full height at the tallest side (back).
• (2) Width – left-to-right across the top.
• (3) Depth – front-to-back across the top surface.
• (4) Front Height – the lower height at the front where the slope ends.

We add a small tailoring allowance to help the cover slide on easily without being overly tight.

Select your outdoor fabric

Your Design 8 cover can be made in one of two professional-grade outdoor fabrics:

Tier 1 – PVL 600D Vinyl-Coated Polyester

• Waterproof and robust
• Great for general UK weather, sheds and patios
• Best for spring–autumn or partially sheltered setups

Tier 2 – P500UV Premium Polyester (PU + UV Coated)

• Superior UV protection for all-year exposure
• Ideal for south-facing & exposed gardens
• Lighter to handle but extremely durable

Tie-down options

Choose a securing method based on wind exposure and how often you access the unit:

• No tie-downs – for sheltered areas or very heavy equipment.
• Elasticated hem with cord lock – cinches the base for a neat grip.
• Grommets & cord – reinforced eyelets to tie to anchor points.
• Webbing straps with buckles – passes under the item for maximum stability.

Why choose a made-to-measure tapered cover?

• Tailored to your exact slope angle and dimensions
• Cleaner fit than standard flat covers
• Prevents water pooling and improves run-off
• Protects against rain, UV, dust, dirt, bird mess and daily wear
• Looks tidy and professional all year round
