Prestige Case (PRO) – Napoleon

Protect your investment with a cover designed to last and perform day after day. Napoleon’s Prestige/Prestige PRO and BIPRO range is tailor-made for each 500/665/825 model, so it hugs the silhouette of the grill with no slack or strain. Its technical fabric combines mechanical strength and water repellency to stop rain, spray and light splashes, while UV protection helps preserve colour and finishes from the sun. On trolley models, built-in vents reduce condensation over long periods of rest, and adjustable straps ensure a firm hold even on windy days. So your grill stays clean, dry and ready to light, prolonging the life of burners, grates and surfaces without you having to worry about dust, pollen or discolouration.

🧵 Materials and construction

The polyester exterior offers an ideal balance between lightness and robustness: it resists tugging when putting on and taking off the cover and retains its shape over time. The inner polyurethane l ining acts as an additional barrier against ambient humidity and fine dirt, helping the controls, covers and trims to remain protected between sessions. This two-layer architecture promotes dimensional stability – it does not warp easily – and provides enough flexibility to fold and store without the material splitting. The stitching, aligned with the changes in the plane of the grill, distributes stresses and minimises fatigue points, which is key when the wind moves the cover or when it is put on and taken off often.

🛡️ Comprehensive weather protection

The cover creates a continuous shield against three common fronts: moisture (drizzle, night dew, fog), solar radiation (responsible for colour fading and hardening of plastics) and airborne dirt (dust, pollen, fine ash). Water repellency encourages droplets to slide on the surface rather than soak in, while UV inhibitors help reduce colour fading and surface deterioration from prolonged exposure. In near-coastal climates, it also serves as a courtesy barrier to ambient salinity, which can accelerate corrosion of metal elements if deposited day after day. The practical result is simple: less deep cleaning and a quicker, more pleasant start every time you feel like cooking.

🌬️ Performance and intelligent ventilation

In the Prestige/Prestige PRO trolley versions, the integrated vents are designed to create a gentle natural convection: dry air in, moist air out. This exchange reduces internal condensation, a major contributor to stagnant moisture and odours when the grill remains covered for weeks. Ventilation also helps to avoid air pockets which, in gusty winds, could behave like a “parachute”. By promoting circulation, the cover sits better and maintains a drier microclimate, especially useful after long cooking times or during sudden temperature changes between day and night.

🎯 Secure fit and support

Each variation is cut to size for the corresponding model – built-in BIPRO or Prestige/PRO with trolley – so that the edges of the lid, sides and front panel are properly covered without excessive creases. Adjustable straps allow you to tighten the cover so it won’t flap in the wind or move around – essential if your area is exposed. This controlled adjustment protects the seams and prevents the fabric from always rubbing in the same places. On the trolley versions, the loops or handles make it easy to handle and hang up when you take it off, streamlining the cover/uncover routine without wrestling with the material.

🧩 Direct compatibility with your grill

The line covers six specific variations: BIPRO 500/665/825 for built-in island or countertop grill heads, and Prestige / Prestige PRO 500/665/825 for trolley grills. In the trolley models, the cover envelops the whole assembly -top, body, sides and base-, while in the built-in models it focuses on protecting the head without interfering with the built-in unit or worktop. This direct compatibility avoids “universal” solutions that tend to be either too loose (dirt and water get in) or too tight (shortening the life of the fabric).

✨ Design and aesthetics

The sober black finish with Napoleon logo gives a clean and elegant presence, combining with brushed steel, stone or wood worktops without stealing the limelight. The orientation of the seams and the cut pattern help to drain water and avoid pockets on top, keeping a tidy silhouette even after rainfall. Visually, the ensemble conveys care and continuity: your outdoor kitchen looks tidy when not in use and ready when it’s time to turn it on.

🔥 Benefits for your kitchen style

If you move between long smoking, low temperature and powerful searing, the cover is the piece that closes the circle: it protects the equipment between sessions so that every cooking starts in top condition. Less dust on grates and lids means less preparation time, and keeping finishes safe from sun and moisture helps the grill retain its thermal performance and sealing. In addition, on built-in outdoor kitchens, the cover acts as an extra line of defence for the immediate environment: less splashing and less grease being dragged onto the worktop or furniture.

🧯 Safety and ease of use

The golden rule: always cover when cold. A hot lid can damage the material over time and generate trapped steam. When fitting, check that it does not touch abrasive surfaces or residual hot edges; adjust the straps until the fabric is firm but not too tight. After rainfall, shake off accumulated water before removing to prevent moisture from entering when opening. If you are not going to cook for weeks, it is advisable to air the inside of the grill for a few minutes before covering it again. Keep the cover away from naked flames and direct heat sources when it is removed, and avoid dragging it on the floor to avoid damaging the bottom edge.
