Universal Trailer Cover FAQ’S:

What are the differences between the fabrics you offer for Universal Fit covers?

  • The first universal fit RV cover that we offer has a white Tyvek roof and gray polypropylene sides. The white Tyvek roof piece is one piece that runs the length of the roof of the RV. The Tyvek fabric has a 99.8% UV protection rating. The Tyvek fabric is layered, not woven. The sides are made from a polypropylene material, which is one layer and it does not have any documented UV protection. This cover is 100% breathable, mildew and water resistant, not waterproof. We recommend this cover for customers who don’t want to spend the money for a custom cover, but who store their RV’s in the Southwestern and Southeastern states (states with intense heat). The Tyvek roof will offer UV protection. However, customers with this cover may notice sun rot along the roof seam of the Tyvek and polypropylene fabrics. This may happen within the first two years, sometimes sooner. Sun damage is covered under warranty for all covers.
  • A second universal fit cover that we offer is the SFS/Polypropylene cover. It has a gray SFS Aqua Shed roof piece. The gray SFS Aqua Shed fabric is three layers of the polypropylene. It does not have any documented UV protection.   The sides are made from a gray polypropylene material, which is one layer and it does not have any documented UV protection. This cover is 100% breathable, mildew and water resistant, not waterproof. We recommend this cover to our customers who store their RV’s in mild climates such as the Northwestern states and even Northeastern and Midwestern states.
  • The third universal fit RV cover we offer is completely made out of the gray polypropylene material. This cover is 100% breathable, mildew and water resistant, not waterproof. We recommend this cover to our customers who store their RV’s in mild climates such as the Northwestern states and even Northeastern and Midwestern states.

How long is the warranty for Universal fit covers?

  • All universal fit trailer and RV covers have a two year warranty against manufacturer errors and defects and sun rot. Wind damage is not covered under the warranty.

It snows where I store my trailer. Can your covers be used in the snow?

  •   Yes our covers can be used in the snow. Please wait until the snow and ice melt before removing the cover from your RV.

Are there door inserts in the Universal Fit RV Covers?

  • Yes, there are zipper door panels sewn into the universal fit covers. The toy hauler and 5th wheel toy hauler covers include a rear ramp zipper door, which extends to almost the full height of the rear of the trailers and includes three large, side zipper door panels for access to the side door. Since the side door placement varies from RV model to model, three panels are included to accommodate the various door placements. The three side zipper door panels are included in all of our remaining RV covers, such as travel trailers, 5th wheel trailers, Class A and Class C RV’s.

  How do the doors on the cover stay open and secured while my RV doors are open?

  • Velcro tabs are sewn into the fabric of the cover above the door placements. After you roll up the fabric door, attach the Velcro tabs at the top of the door to secure it in place.

Why should I invest in a custom cover rather than a Universal Fit cover?

  • People who are planning to keep their trailer for more than 2 years may want to invest in a cover that offers protection from the damaging UV rays. Our custom covers are tailor made to fit your trailer’s exact dimensions. We offer a four year warranty and a five year warranty with our custom covers.

The bottom corners of my RV are sharp. How can I protect my cover?

  •   All of our universal and custom covers include vinyl reinforced patching, at the bottom four corners of the covers, in order to prevent the cover from tearing.
  •   We provide cover tips on our website which describe how a person can protect a cover, from the sharp edges and corners, on an RV.

My trailer’s model number says that it’s 26’. Will a 23’-26’ universal fit cover fit on my trailer?

  • Always measure your trailer/RV from the farthest frontal point (never include the tongue in the measurement) to the farthest rear point of the trailer/RV, before purchasing a universal or a custom cover.
  • Most toy hauler trailers (especially Weekend Warrior) and many other trailers and RV’s measure 1 ½ feet longer than the model number says.
  •   It’s important not to buy a cover that is too tight. If the cover is too tight, it may rip while the cover is being put on or being taken off.
  •   Having a little extra material is helpful.

My RV has an air conditioning unit, an antenna dome and an air vent on the roof. Will the Universal Fit cover fit my RV?

  • Yes. All of our covers accommodate for the a/c units, antenna domes and air vents. However, if your RV has antenna that stands straight up (like a car antenna), it will have to be removed or bent all the way down before the cover is put on your RV.

My RV has an antenna that stands up a couple of feet (like a car antenna). Can you cut a hole in the cover for me, or can I cut the hole to make room for the antenna?

  • No. We will not cut out any holes for traditional antennas or any other object placed on the roof of your RV, whether the cover is a universal or a custom.
  • We do not recommend that you cut any holes either. If you do, you null and you’re your cover’s warranty.
  • You may take your cover and have holes made by a professional seamstress, however, you will void your cover’s warranty.

Does anything else come with my cover?

Yes. Each universal fit cover comes with the following:

  • storage bag
  • ladder cap (a piece of material to put over the ladder to give added protection from the ladder and cover rubbing and causing damage to the cover)
  • several buckle straps sewn into the bottom length of the cover
  • reinforced grommets sewn into the nose of the trailer
  • nylon rope to secure and tighten through the grommets to tighten any excess material on the cover 
  • Two sets of free tyre gards (4 indiv.) Color options are black, colonial white (cream), and polar white (white). Customers choose the tyre gard size and color.

Free tyre gards are not included in the purchase of a folding trailer or hi lo trailer cover.

Customers may not choose the size and color of the free tyre gards for the universal fit Class A and Class C RV covers. Those are preselected for the tire size that comes with those RVs.
