The backrest is tall and the seat front is low. Giving us both heights means the cover follows that step down, rather than draping over it and collecting water in the fold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich fabric should I choose?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nFor a sheltered garden used mainly in summer, DuraLite is enough. If the bench is out all year or sits somewhere exposed and windy, choose DuraWeave. For a park, a venue or a commercial site — or if you simply want the longest life and the best finish — choose DuraShield.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I add extra to my measurements for slack?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nNo. Give us the exact figures. We add the leeway ourselves — roughly 2.5 cm on the width and depth. The height is made exactly as you give it. If you want no leeway at all, just say so when you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich fastening should I pick?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nDrawstring is the standard and suits most benches. Elastic grips on its own and is quickest to fit. Push clips around the legs hold best in wind. A split zip is worth it on a long bench you cannot easily lift a one-piece cover over.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill water pool on top?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nOn a flat seat it can. Air bags lift the middle of the cover so the water runs off the sides instead of sitting on the seat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I have a name or logo printed on it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes.
