Why Should I Protect My Garden Furniture?

Protecting your garden furniture with an outdoor furniture cover is beneficial for a number of reasons: 

Longevity

Quality garden furniture can be expensive to repair once damaged. Proper maintenance with an outdoor furniture cover can significantly extend its life, making it a wise investment. 

Aesthetics

Weather conditions like rain, wind, and sun can cause fading, cracking, or rusting. Keeping your furniture protected ensures it remains comfortable and visually appealing for years to come. 

Functionality

Damaged or weakened furniture may not only look unappealing, but could also be unsafe to use or sit on. I’d add another sentence or two to extend this, especially since you’re under wordcount.

Resale Value

Well-maintained furniture that keeps its pristine look can have a higher resale value, meaning you get more of your money back if you decide to sell it. I’d add another sentence or two to extend this, especially since you’re under wordcount. 

Enjoyment

When your outdoor furniture is in good condition, it enhances your outdoor living experience.


By taking steps to protect your garden furniture by using furniture covers, treating wood, or storing items indoors during extreme weather, you're making a wise investment in the long-term value and enjoyment of your outdoor space.

How To Measure Your Furniture For A Cover

If you are buying an outdoor furniture cover, you'll want to make sure it fits. Get a measuring tape (and a friend or family member to help with larger objects) and measure the following dimensions of your furniture. Here's a brief guide:

Width

Measure from one side to the other at the widest points.

Depth

Measure from the front of the furniture to the back.

Height

Measure from the ground to the tallest point on the furniture.


For outdoor chairs and tables, make sure to include the armrests and backs in your measurements. For sun loungers, you can choose whether to cover it when it's open or folded, so measure accordingly. 


Once you have these dimensions, choose a cover that is slightly larger to ensure easy covering and removal. Always consult the cover manufacturer's sizing guidelines to make the best choice.

What Materials Are Outdoor Furniture Covers Made Of?

Our outdoor furniture covers are commonly made from 210D Nylon Oxford, a lightweight, flexible, yet strong fabric. It has a smooth finish and subtle sheen for presentation, as well as water resistance. 


This material is also treated with a specialised coating for added UV protection, water resistance, and mould resistance. Its features allow for:


  • UV-resistance

  • Protection from the weather

  • Inner silver-coloured PU coating

  • Dustproof waterproof and tear-resistant

  • Moves with the draw cord for tightening

Are Outdoor Furniture Covers Waterproof?

All of our outdoor furniture covers are designed to be water-resistant to some degree. Water-resistant covers can handle light rain and moisture but may not hold up well under heavy or sustained rainfall. 


Always check the manufacturer's specifications to determine the level of water protection provided by the cover.

How Do I Clean Outdoor Furniture Covers?

Keeping your outdoor furniture covers is easy to do once you know how. Follow along our simple process: 


1. Removing loose dirt with a brush.

2. Washing with a mild soap and water solution, either by hand or on a gentle machine cycle.

3. Rinsing thoroughly to remove soap residue.

4. Air-drying completely before storing or placing back on furniture to prevent mildew.

Can I Leave My Outdoor Furniture Covers On During All Seasons?

Whether you can leave your outdoor furniture covers on during all seasons depends on several factors:

Material

High-quality, all-season covers like our collection are made from durable and weather-resistant materials that can be left on year-round, no matter the season. 

Climate

In harsh climates with heavy snow or strong sun, even many covers may degrade faster. With our high-quality materials, you will be purchasing an outdoor cover that lasts for longer in the Austrlian climate. 

Ventilation

Leaving covers on for extended periods without proper ventilation can lead to mould or rust. Some covers come with built-in vents to mitigate this issue.


While it is possible to leave the covers on all year, periodic checks and maintenance can help prolong the life of both your furniture and the covers.
