Winter cover for Port Royal gazebo – 185 g/m² polyethylene

Prepare your gazebo for the cold season with this winter cover designed for Forum Port Royal gazebos. Made of 185 g/m² white polyethylene, it envelops the structure to protect it from snow, ice, rain, leaves, and dirt.

Its integrated door provides easy access to the interior, while its ventilation openings, hook-and-loop fasteners, and anchor grommets ensure convenient and stable installation.

Winter Protection for Port Royal Gazebo

This cover temporarily transforms your gazebo into an enclosed space during the winter. It helps protect the structure and stored furniture from seasonal conditions.

It helps limit exposure to:

• Snow and ice accumulation
• Rain and moisture
• Fallen leaves
• Dust and dirt
• Debris carried by the wind
• Temperature variations

The cover also makes it easier to clean and put the gazebo back into service in the spring.

185 g/m² white polyethylene

The cover is made of polyethylene with a density of 185 g/m². This durable material is designed to remain flexible in cold weather and reduce the risk of cracking caused by low temperatures.

Its main advantages include:

• A design suited to winter use
• Good moisture resistance
• A surface that facilitates snow runoff
• A flexible, easy-to-handle material
• A white colour that enhances interior brightness
• A density of 185 g/m²

The fabric helps snow slide off, but significant accumulations must still be removed regularly.

Integrated door

A door is integrated into the cover to provide convenient access to the inside of the gazebo during the winter.

This opening notably facilitates:

• Inspecting the structure
• Removing accumulations
• Checking the anchors
• Access to the stored furniture
• Occasional ventilation of the space

After each use, close the door completely to prevent it from being lifted or damaged by the wind.

Ventilation openings

Ventilation holes are integrated into the cover to promote air circulation.

They contribute to:

• Reduce wind pressure
• Limit condensation formation
• Reduce moisture buildup
• Promote better air circulation

The openings reduce these effects without eliminating them completely. Periodic inspection from the inside is still recommended during the winter.

Attachment to posts

The cover includes Velcro-type hook-and-loop straps that allow it to be fastened to each gazebo pole.

This system helps to:

• Position the fabric correctly
• Keep the walls close to the structure
• Reduce movement caused by wind
• Make installation and removal easier
• Achieve a more stable fit

All straps must be properly fastened and checked regularly throughout the season.

Grommets for ground anchoring

Grommets are arranged along the bottom of the fabric to allow it to be anchored to the ground.

The type of anchoring required depends on the installation surface:

• Concrete slab
• Wooden deck
• Pavers
• Compacted soil
• Other suitable foundation

Use only fasteners compatible with your surface. Anchoring hardware is sold separately unless otherwise indicated.

Available sizes

The Port Royal winter cover is available in the following dimensions:

• 10 ft x 10 ft
• 10 ft x 12 ft
• 10 ft x 14 ft
• 12 ft x 12 ft
• 12 ft x 16 ft
• 12 ft x 20 ft

Select the size that exactly matches the dimensions and model of your gazebo. A cover that is too large or too small may be difficult to install and provide an inadequate fit.

Before ordering, check:

• The model name
• The nominal dimensions of the gazebo
• The arrangement of the poles
• The shape and configuration of the roof
• The size indicated in the gazebo manual

Recommended installation

To install the cover:

1. Clean the structure and remove debris from the roof.
2. Inspect the gazebo and tighten the fasteners.
3. Close or remove the screens and curtains.
4. Unfold the cover on a clean surface.
5. Position it according to the manufacturer's instructions.
6. Fasten the hook-and-loop straps around the poles.
7. Anchor the bottom grommets to the surface.
8. Make sure the door is completely closed.
9. Make sure the fabric is taut without being overstretched.

Installation by two people is recommended, especially for larger sizes.

Important precautions

To use the cover safely:

• Securely anchor the fabric before the first winds
• Check the fasteners and anchors after a storm
• Repair any tears promptly
• Regularly remove snow and ice buildup
• Do not allow water to accumulate on the fabric
• Keep the door closed when not in use
• Never install a damaged cover
• Follow the gazebo manufacturer's instructions

The cover does not reinforce the gazebo's structural capacity and does not replace a winter support post when such an accessory is recommended.
