Covers will also protect your <a title="outdoor furniture" href="http://www.directpatiofurniture.com/" target="_blank">outdoor furniture</a>,  barbeque <a title="grills" href="http://www.directoutdoorliving.com/grills.aspx" target="_blank">grills</a> and other items, extending their useful life dramatically.</p>
<div id="textpreview">
<h3>Types of Covers</h3>
<p>A patio cover can be as simple or elaborate as you desire, from a canvas  awning that rolls up against the house when not in use to a wooden  construction cover with a solid roof. In the middle of the spectrum are  mobile awnings and carport covers that can be removed and disassembled  when no longer needed.</p>
<h3>Designs</h3>
<p>Patio covers made of canvas will have a shorter life than a solid cover  made of aluminum or steel, but are available in colorful designs that  may complement existing décor better. A solid cover will last longer and  may be a better long-term investment, but color choices are more  limited.</p>
<p>When deciding on which style of patio cover to purchase, consider how  long you plan to use it, how severe your weather is and which models are  available to fit your patio size. While not a large investment,  choosing the correct patio cover can provide your patio with protection  for years to come.</p>
