Our advice to avoid the slip of your sofa covers

Your Sofa covers Move too much when people sit on it. Although this does not always happen, this is a problem that must be resolved when it occurs. If you currently have covers that pose this problem, you are lucky.

 

We are here to share advice on how to prevent the covers from slipping when you sit on your sofa.

Tighten all the fixings

You should start by making sure you have connected everything in the right direction. Whether tightening cords, velcro, zippers or loop closures, you will need to make sure you have all closed them. I miss one or two could be the reason why your cover does not stay in place when you sit on your sofa.

Find ways to increase tension

If everything is secure or if everything has not helped, you will have to try more interesting methods. Increasing tension is one of these means. The easiest way to do so is to enter the cover in the crevices as deeply as possible.

If this does not seem enough to keep it in place, you can place weighted objects in the areas where you have slipped the cover to keep it more solidly in place (between the cushions). The best things you can use are PVC pipes or rolled magazines.

Add something to improve friction

The other makeshift method is to add a layer between the cover and the sofa that will increase friction and make it less slippery. You can use an non -slip lining, but it will probably not be the most comfortable thing to sit down. What we recommend instead is a rubberized strip like those at the bottom of the carpets and mouse mats.

Whatever you decide, be sure to cut the section so that it is a little larger than the cushion on which it will be placed. In this way, it will fall on the edges and will be easier to maintain the cover in place.

Use Velcro

Adding Velcro is an effective method for preventing the cover of your slide sofa. Velcro is a very adherent material that can be easily attached both to the cover and on the sofa. You can buy Velcro in the form of adhesive bands or sewing ribbons.

To use this method, you must first measure the length of the sides of your sofa and cut the Velcro accordingly. Then you can sew or stick the Velcro on the corners of the sofa cover and on the sides of the sofa. Make sure to place the Velcro so that it is well aligned so that the cover adapts perfectly to the sofa and remains in place.

If you don't want to sew or stick Velcro on your sofa, you can also buy velcro sticker strips that can be fixed directly on the sofa without causing permanent damage. You can easily remove the velcro sticker strips if you want to remove the cover or replace it with a new one.

Using Velcro, you can easily prevent your sofa cover from slipping and ensure that it stays in place even when you sit or lie on it. It is a simple and inexpensive method that can make all the difference to keep your sofa clean and in good condition.

Choose the right size for your sofa covers

Make sure that the cover of your sofa is the right size is an important appearance to prevent it from slipping. If the cover is too large for your sofa, it will tend to offend and move easily. Conversely, if it is too small, it will not completely cover the sofa and may also slide.

To find the Good cover size for your sofa, you must measure the length, width and height of your sofa. Make sure to measure from the exterior edges of the sofa and add a little margin to make sure that the cover adapts perfectly. 

If you can't find the right cover size for your sofa, you can consider buying a custom cover. Custom covers are designed to adapt perfectly to your sofa, which can help prevent shift. Although it may be more expensive than buying a ready -to -use cover, this can be an interesting option if you want a specific adjustment.
