A practical starting point
Choose the complete cover configuration
Choose the cover configuration before treating it as a package inclusion. Match light transmission, visibility, fit and service openings to the use and frame.

Three decisions
to make together
Tell us about these requirements so we can help you plan the right configuration.
Application & light
Clarify whether the dome needs daylight, outward visibility, privacy, branding or projection control.
Fit & openings
Bring the dome size, frame details, entrances, windows and service connections.
Material & care
Confirm the current fabric specification, installation, maintenance and replacement requirements.
Choose the cover around the use
Our cover options include lightweight Airtex, heavy-duty PVC, opaque, clear and ripstop-reinforced materials. Select the cover around your dome dimensions, frame, intended use and required openings.
Compare daylight, privacy, outward visibility and exterior-light control. A clear dining enclosure, an event cover and a projection environment have different priorities; confirm the exact material for the application.
Lightweight and heavy-duty materials
Our translucent white Airtex and heavier PVC options offer different colors, finishes and light transmission. Their continuous-outdoor planning ranges are 3 to 5 years for Airtex and 10 to 15 years for heavy-duty PVC.
Actual cover life depends on the exact material, exposure and care. Ask us for the current manufacturer specification, operating conditions, cleaning and storage instructions, and written warranty for your quoted cover.
Clear and reinforced cover choices
We offer clear vinyl for windows and full covers, plus a semi-clear option with interwoven ripstop nylon reinforcement. Discuss reinforced covers with us for greenhouse, outbuilding and storage applications.
Clear-vinyl life depends on weather, and our clear material is unsuitable for below-freezing exposure. Discuss temperature limits, condensation, ventilation and care with us before selecting a transparent enclosure.
Fit, documentation and replacement
Provide the dome size and frame details, door and window locations, service connections and branding needs. Confirm compatibility before ordering a replacement or custom cover.
Ask us for the selected material’s applicable UV, weather and fire-test documentation. Confirm the specific documents and standards required for your location and use.

The details that distinguish a cover
Manufacturer and finish
Ask us about cover fabric options from Mehler, Serge Ferrari and Dickson St. Clair. PVC choices include glossier finishes, with satin-finish options to discuss for Serge Ferrari materials. Confirm the exact manufacturer, finish and current availability in your proposal.
Light and visibility
Choose translucent material for natural light, opaque material for exterior-light control, or clear vinyl for outward views. Ripstop clear covers include interwoven nylon reinforcement. Match the chosen material to the dome, frame, openings and conditions.
Fabrication and care
We use high-frequency welding in our cover construction. Discuss material choice, welded joints, fit, openings, cleaning, inspection and storage when ordering a new or replacement cover.
Performance documentation
Ask us to confirm UV protection, weather resistance, fire-test compliance, antimicrobial properties, and mold and mildew resistance for your exact fabric. Requirements vary by material and project; obtain the applicable documentation for your location and use.
Your next step
Specify the cover before the package.
Share the frame, dome size, light-control needs, openings and exposure. Confirm the exact material, compatibility and care.
