Custom Made Table Tennis Cover

UV & Waterproof 200gsm solution-dyed polyester
Made to Measure Cut to your exact dimensions
Made in 3 Weeks Express options available
Australia-Wide Delivery Tracked courier to every state

Protect your outdoor table tennis table from rain, warping, UV, and debris with a cover made to fit the actual dimensions of your table.

Each cover is made from 200gsm solution-dyed polyester with a waterproof underside, keeping moisture away from the playing surface and frame so the table plays consistently season after season.

Generic table tennis covers are made for standard tournament-size tables. Outdoor models and mini tables often have different dimensions, and even standard tables vary slightly between brands.

A made-to-measure cover fits your table properly in its playing position, with no gaps at the edges and no excess fabric to pool water or flap in the wind.

Step 01 Enter Your Measurements

Measure the table in its flat playing position with the net removed. Length is the long side of the table surface. Width is the short side. Height is from the ground to the playing surface — the top of the table. A standard table tennis table is approximately 274 x 152 cm with a playing height of 76 cm, but measure yours directly as sizes vary between brands and models.

Measuring guidelines

  • Measure the table in its flat playing position. Remove the net before measuring.
  • Length is the long outside dimension of the table from end to end.
  • Width is the shorter outside dimension from side to side.
  • Height is from the ground to the playing surface — the top of the table. Do not include the net post height.

Cover features

  • A clean, fabric-style outer face that suits a furnished outdoor space rather than the tarpaulin look you get from budget covers.
  • Six webbing tie-down points spaced around the base so the cover stays put when the wind picks up.
  • For furniture without legs to anchor to, an elastic perimeter can be sewn around the bottom edge instead. Just request this when placing your order.
  • A polyurethane waterproof layer bonded to the underside that holds up under UV exposure without flaking or breaking down.
  • Double-folded, twice-stitched seams that hide the raw edge of the fabric and keep stitch lines protected from water ingress.
  • No PVC anywhere in the construction, which means no cracking or splitting along the fold lines after a season or two of sun.
  • Solution-dyed polyester face fabric. Colour runs all the way through every fibre, so fading is dramatically reduced under harsh Australian sun.
  • A drawstring carry bag is included for storing the cover when guests are over or during the warmer months.
  • Light enough that one person can fit and remove it without help.
  • Backed by a warranty against premature fading and loss of waterproofing.
Please review your measurements carefully before submitting. Each cover is cut to the dimensions you provide, so we are unable to offer change-of-mind returns or cancel an order once production has begun.

Built to fit, not adapted to suit

Standard table tennis tables are nominally 274 x 152 cm, but outdoor models, mini tables, and different brands vary from that spec. A cover made for the standard size may be slightly too long or too wide for your table, leaving excess fabric that pools water and sags over the edge. A custom cover is built from your exact measurements and sits flush on every side.

One material, one quality, one price tier

Every cover uses 200gsm solution-dyed polyester with a waterproof polyurethane underside. The same material and construction goes into a cover for a mini table as for a full-size competition table. One quality level for every size.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about ordering a custom table tennis table cover.

Should I measure the table folded or flat?

Flat, in the playing position. The cover is designed for the table as it is used, not as it folds for storage. If you fold the table away after each use, this cover is not for you. It is for tables that stay set up and are covered between games.

Should I remove the net before covering the table?

Yes. Remove the net and posts before fitting the cover. The net posts protrude above the table surface, and fitting a cover over them puts strain on the fabric and leaves an uneven surface that collects water. The cover is made for the flat table surface only.

My table is a standard size. Do I still need a custom cover?

Custom is worth it even for standard-size tables. Table dimensions vary slightly between brands — some are 275 cm rather than 274 cm, or 153 cm rather than 152 cm. Over the length of the table, a few centimetres of mismatch creates a noticeable gap at one end. Measuring your actual table guarantees a proper fit.

Does the cover protect the undercarriage and legs as well?

The cover fits over the playing surface and drapes down the sides. The height measurement determines how far it drops. It covers the top and sides of the table, which protects the playing surface and the frame. The legs at the very base may not be fully enclosed depending on your height measurement.

Can I leave the cover on in the rain?

Yes. The cover is waterproof and is designed to be left on the table during rain events. Water will run off the sloped sides of the cover rather than pooling on the flat playing surface.

Custom Made Table Tennis Table Covers — The Australian Owner's Complete Guide

6 min read Updated 2025 Custom Cover Company

An outdoor table tennis table is a piece of equipment that sees regular use and year-round weather. The playing surface is the most valuable part of the table, and it is also the most sensitive to moisture. This guide covers how to measure and protect it properly.

Why the playing surface needs protection

The playing surface on a table tennis table is a compressed fibreboard or medium-density fibreboard panel with a melamine or resin coating. Indoor tables use panels that are not moisture-resistant at all. Outdoor tables use panels designed to handle occasional moisture, but they are not immune to prolonged exposure.

When a table surface absorbs moisture, the fibreboard swells unevenly. The edges swell more than the centre because that is where moisture enters first. Over a season or two of Australian rain and humidity, an unprotected outdoor table will develop warped edges that cause the ball to bounce differently near the sides. In more severe cases the surface can delaminate or the frame can warp enough to affect the table's fold mechanism.

Covering the table between uses prevents this. The cover keeps rain off the surface, reduces the humidity gradient between the top and underside of the panel, and extends the life of the playing surface significantly.

How to measure

Length

Measure the full outside length of the table from end to end in its flat, open position. A standard tournament table is 274 cm long, but outdoor models and different brands vary. Some are 270 cm or 275 cm. Measure yours directly.

Width

Measure the full outside width from side to side. Standard is 152 cm, but again, outdoor models vary. Some sport tables and mini tables are considerably different.

Height

Height runs from the ground to the playing surface — the top of the table. A standard table is 76 cm high. The cover drops over the top and hangs down the sides to the correct depth based on this measurement.

Remove the net and posts before measuring. Do not include the net post height in the height measurement. The cover fits the table, not the net.

Why you should measure even a standard table

It is tempting to order a cover based on the standard 274 x 152 x 76 cm dimensions. The problem is that those dimensions are not perfectly consistent across all brands. Some manufacturers round slightly, some add a few millimetres to the frame, and some outdoor models are built to different specs altogether.

A cover that is 2 cm too short on the length hangs correctly at one end but gaps at the other. Over a wet season, that gap lets moisture in at exactly the point where the table panel is most vulnerable to edge swelling.

Measuring takes two minutes and guarantees the cover fits correctly.

Material

The cover is 200gsm solution-dyed polyester with a waterproof polyurethane underside. The face fabric is UV-stable, which matters for a table that lives outdoors and may have the cover on it for months at a time.

The PU underside keeps rain from soaking through to the playing surface. Water runs down the sides of the cover rather than sitting on top and finding its way through seams or under the edge of the cover.

At 200gsm the fabric is heavy enough to stay in place on the table in normal wind without needing to be tied or weighted down.

Care

Brush any leaves or debris off the top before fitting the cover. Check occasionally that the cover is sitting flat across the table and has not shifted to one side. Rinse with a garden hose every few months to clear dust and pollen. Do not machine wash. Allow to dry before storing during the off-season.
