Custom Octagonal / Multi-Panel Outdoor Cover | Waterproof - Design 6 (Made to Measure)
Custom octagonal / multi-panel outdoor cover – Design 6
Design 6 is made for outdoor furniture and structures that are multi-sided or octagonal. If your table, fire pit, heater, or feature unit doesn’t have four sides, a standard rectangular cover will always look loose or crooked. This made-to-measure cover follows the exact geometry of your item, giving you a clean, tailored fit on every angled panel.
Simply follow the diagram and enter the six required measurements in centimetres. Our UK workshop will pattern-cut your cover so the height, panel widths, and top shape all match your furniture perfectly, with a small allowance added so the cover slides on easily without being baggy.
Perfect for multi-sided outdoor structures
- Octagonal or hexagonal garden tables
- Fire pits and fire bowls with angled bases
- Multi-panel heater units or gas bottle housings
- Decorative garden features with sloped or faceted tops
- Custom-built timber structures
How to measure Design 6
Use a tape measure and follow the numbered points in the sizing diagram (ALT should be set to “diagram” or “size”):
- Height – from ground to the highest vertical point.
- Side depth (2) – depth of the right-hand angled panel.
- Top long width (3) – the longest top surface measurement.
- Base width (4) – bottom width across the front base edge.
- Side width (5) – bottom width of the shorter angled side.
- Top short width (6) – shorter cross-line measurement across the top.
Measure at the widest and highest points you want to cover. If you’re unsure which measurement relates to your furniture, simply upload a photo at checkout.

Frequently asked questions
What is Design 6 best for?
Design 6 is ideal for octagonal and multi-sided tables, fire pits and garden features where a simple rectangular cover would look baggy or twisted. The pattern follows the angles of your furniture for a neat fit.
Are the fabrics fully waterproof?
Both fabric tiers are designed for outdoor use. Tier 1 (PVL 600D) is waterproof for everyday garden use, while Tier 2 (P500UV) adds an extra PU and UV coating for maximum water resistance and long-term exposure.
What if my measurements are slightly wrong?
We add a small tailoring allowance to help the cover slip on easily. If you realise you’ve measured incorrectly, contact us as soon as possible with your order number – if production hasn’t started, we can usually update the sizes.
Can you add cut-outs or zips?
In many cases we can add simple cut-outs, flaps, vents or access zips. Upload a clear photo and describe what you need in the notes – we’ll confirm what’s possible and whether there is any extra cost before we sew your cover.
How do I clean the cover?
Brush off loose dirt regularly, then sponge clean with mild soapy water and rinse. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, as these can damage the waterproof coatings over time. Always allow the cover to dry fully before storing.
