Custom Utility Covers in Oklahoma City: Industrial‑Grade Protection Built to Last
Stop letting Oklahoma’s extreme weather destroy your investment. At Boatman Marine Canvas, we don’t just sew fabric; we engineer protection. Oklahoma weather is hostile blistering 100°F+ summers, violent spring storms, and freezing winters. Generic, "one-size-fits-all" covers from big-box stores fail within a season, leaving your expensive equipment exposed to rust, UV damage, and mold. We build custom utility covers that fit perfectly and last for years. If it stays outside or inside we can cover it.
What We Protect with Custom Utility Covers

Fire Pits & Patio Furniture
Outdoor living spaces are a major investment. Custom fire pit and patio heater covers keep ash contained, burners dry, ignition systems protected, and finishes free from rust and sun damage. Our breathable fabrics prevent moisture buildup while standing up to heat exposure and seasonal temperature swings.

Outdoor Kitchens & Grills
Stainless steel isn’t immune to Oklahoma weather. UV exposure causes fading, while rain and humidity accelerate corrosion. Our custom grill and outdoor kitchen covers protect countertops, cabinetry, control panels, and burners; helping your outdoor kitchen look new and perform reliably year after year.

Golf Carts & UTVs
From neighborhood golf carts to hard‑working UTVs, we build full enclosures and storage covers that block wind, rain, dust, and debris. Whether you need protection during a functional enclosure for active use, we can repair or fabricate covers that improve comfort and extend vehicle life.

Industrial & Commercial Equipment
Industrial assets demand industrial‑grade protection. We fabricate custom covers for generators, HVAC units, pumps, compressors, lawn and landscape equipment, and specialty machinery. These covers help reduce downtime, prevent corrosion, and protect sensitive components from weather and debris.

The Material Difference: Why Marine‑Grade Matters
Boatman Marine Canvas has been in business since 1974. We’ve learned one simple truth: cheap materials are expensive in the long run. Covers made from inferior fabric crack, peel, fade, and tear; forcing you to replace them again and again.
That’s why we use only top‑tier marine and industrial‑grade fabrics designed for harsh environments.

Sunbrella® Acrylic Fabric
Best For: Breathability, aesthetics, and long‑term color performance
The Benefit: Sunbrella fabrics are solution‑dyed, meaning color is locked into the fiber itself; not applied as a surface coating. The result is vibrant color that never fades, plus breathable performance that reduces mildew and condensation beneath the cover.

WeatherMAX® Fabric
Best For: High‑performance durability with lower weight
The Benefit: WeatherMAX features a HydroMax™ finish that causes water to bead and roll off while maintaining flexibility and shape. It resists sagging, making it ideal for applications where appearance and performance matter equally.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Boatman Advantage: Precision Fit Engineering
A loose cover is a failed cover.
Wind is the enemy of poorly designed protection. When air gets underneath loose fabric, it whips violently; tearing seams, damaging fasteners, and scarring painted or finished surfaces. That’s why we approach every utility cover as a precision‑fit engineering project, not a simple sewing job.
Our process includes:
-
Exact patterning to your equipment’s dimensions
-
Reinforced high‑stress and wear points
-
Heavy‑duty stitching and UV‑resistant thread
-
Industrial‑grade snaps, fasteners, and closures
-
Strategic tensioning to eliminate sagging and flapping
The result is a cover that fits like a tailored suit; secure, quiet in the wind, and built to last.
