Great Menu Covers™ – Common Questions & Use Cases
Q: What types of menu covers do you offer?
A: We offer stitched, heat-sealed, and clear vinyl menu covers — available in single panel, bi-fold, tri-fold, and multi-page formats.
Q: What is the difference between heat-sealed and stitched covers?
A: Heat-sealed covers are bonded by high temperature and offer great value. Stitched covers are sewn along the edges for a premium appearance and added durability, ideal for upscale venues.
Q: Can you make custom-sized or custom-printed menu covers?
A: Yes — we specialize in custom sizes, logos, and materials. Provide your insert dimensions or artwork, and we’ll quote you quickly.
Q: Can we match our restaurant’s branding with colors and textures?
A: Absolutely. Choose from a wide range of cover materials (leatherette, linen, vinyl, woodgrain), colors, foil stamps, and corner styles to reflect your brand.
Q: Are your menu covers spill-resistant or waterproof?
A: Yes. Most covers feature protective vinyl or coated surfaces that resist spills, stains, and repeated handling. Wipe clean with a damp cloth or sanitizer.
Q: How do we clean or disinfect the covers?
A: Use a mild soap solution or sanitizing wipe. Avoid harsh chemicals on foil logos or fabric-textured covers. Always test first on a small corner.
Q: What sizes do your covers support?
A: Standard sizes include 4.25"x11", 5.5"x8.5", 8.5"x11", 8.5"x14", and 11"x17". We also support custom dimensions, portrait or landscape orientation, and multiple page configurations.
Q: Do you offer single-panel and book-style options?
A: Yes — from single-sheet holders to 8+ page booklets with clear inserts. Choose the format that fits your menu flow and layout style.
Q: Can we order a sample before committing to a bulk order?
A: Yes — we encourage sample requests to evaluate finish, fit, and quality. Just let us know the style or insert size you're considering.
Q: What’s the typical production time?
A: In-stock items ship in 1–2 business days. Custom orders usually ship within 10–15 business days depending on specs. Rush options available.
Q: Do you offer covers suitable for patio or outdoor use?
A: Yes — weather-friendly vinyl and sealed covers resist moisture and UV damage. Great for outdoor dining, cafes, or poolside menus.
Q: What’s the best option for drink or dessert menus?
A: Slim single-panel or double-view covers work well for cocktail or dessert sections. Compact, durable, and easy to swap out inserts.
Q: Can you handle large quantity orders for chains or franchises?
A: Definitely. We offer volume pricing, consistent branding, and reliable turnaround for multi-location rollouts.
Q: How do I reorder menu covers?
A: If you’ve ordered before, just reference your prior PO or contact us. We’ll locate your specs and replicate exactly what you need — fast and easy.
Q: What if I’m not sure which style I need?
A: No problem — tell us about your restaurant type, number of menu pages, and style goals. We’ll recommend best-fit options based on your needs and budget.
Q: Are your menu covers made in the USA?
A: Yes — our covers are proudly manufactured in the USA using high-quality materials and precision construction. Supporting American jobs and ensuring consistent quality is part of our commitment.
Q: How durable are your menu covers?
A: Very. We use heavy-duty clear 8-gauge PVC for the viewing windows, rigid backing to protect inserts, and tightly stitched borders for long-term performance. Built to handle busy restaurants and daily customer use.
Q: What’s the benefit of 8-gauge PVC?
A: Thicker than standard vinyl, 8-gauge PVC offers superior clarity, rigidity, and resistance to creasing. It helps menus lie flat, prevents curling, and resists tearing — all while maintaining a professional appearance.
