French term
dans tous ses éléments
French to English
Bus/Financial
Insurance
The entire sentence below is found in an insurance policy. It is talking about coverage.
Votre immeuble dans tous
ses elements.
* Terrains balls ou non
∗ Piscines en durs
* Cours de tennis
* Vos biens mobiliers
*All elements of your
building
* Land with or without
constructions
* In-ground swimming pools
* Tennis courts
*Your personal property
Elements in English does not sound right here. I'm thinking more like "aspects" or "components".
Any suggestions?

your property and its contents
That's what my insurance policy says. To avoid repetition of property, you could translate "vos biens mobiliers" as "your personal effects" - ie everything you'd take with you if you left.

"Property" would include buildings, land, and outdoor things like swimming pools and tennis courts.

: Property can also include "personal belongings". See my link above. Not sure I agree fully with this translation. "Property" seems to be the standard industry word for "dans tous ses éléments", imho. Have a nice day.

Chris Hall
: "Equipments" is never ever pluralised in English. Should always be "equipment" which is incorrect here anyway.

French term (edited):
Dans tous ses elements
Your building and all its facilities
This would cover tennis courts and external swimming pools. A component of a building is generally understood as a doorset or window, a brick, a sheet of plasterboard, a steel girder etc.

Unfortunately, the useful word "appurtenances" cannot be used here, because when applied to landed property it means servitudes, easements etc.

: How are "vos biens mobiliers" facilities? "Vos biens mobiliers" would be things like your furniture. Things as such wouldn't be considered as "facilities" (unless I'm really not getting something). I think "all the building's property" is the idea

They may or may not be; they require a separate term. A garden bench is a facility, whether or not it is fixed to the ground. However, if it is fixed to the ground it becomes a "fixture" (and remains a facility).

The text is a little confusing...
"Your property with all its components"
