In either case, you will need a load-bearing wall to hold the main part of the retractable washing line. If you are using a standard retractable washing line, you will also need another wall to which to attach the extending end and if the retractable washing line is intended to hold a lot of weight, it’s usually best if this is also a load-bearing wall. Ideally, you want to avoid having your retractable washing line cross a path. The nub or anchor point for tightening the line takes some getting used to. It can be a bit fiddly to use at first, but once you get the hang of it, it is manageable. This Brabantia retractable washing line is easy to use and straightforward to install since it comes with easy to follow instructions. You will have it set up in no time at all.
Like the other Brabantia washing line, this model also comes with a 5-year guarantee, so it is totally risk-free.We’ve tried our best to sift through the most popular products to help you decide which is the best one for you. Read on if you want to know more. If you are careful with this line, it should last a long time. Don’t be tempted to overload it or you will ruin the line. Apart from that, it is a solid little retractable washing line, and we like it. Choose a place that is obstacle-free and somewhere out of reach of the children. Make sure it isn’t too high or too low. If it’s too high, you will struggle to extend it and hang out the washing. If it is too low, it will sag, and your washing will end up on the garden floor. Also, you have to consider where the loose end of the line will go. You need to choose a location that is within reach. At the open end, you will need to fit a hook for the line to attach to, and that’s it. Job done!
Most retractable washing lines can be used indoors and outdoors, even if they are only advertised for outdoor use. There are, however, some retractable washing lines which are only intended for indoor use and these will be advertised as such. If you’re installing a retractable washing line indoors, then the obvious place for it is over a bath, however, this is not the only place for it, which is just as well given the number of modern flats which only have showers! Bathrooms are still good drying places since they tend to have hard floors, but really you can install a retractable washing line anywhere in your home, if the flooring underneath is carpeted, just put some clothes down before you hang up your washing. After this, you will need to secure your retractable washing line to the main wall. You might want to use a spirit level (app) for this, although it’s unlikely to be a disaster if you install your retractable washing line at a bit of an angle. You will definitely want to drill pilot holes before drilling the main ones. Often people overload it which stretches the lines, leaving some longer than the others. That affects the operation of the washing line. However, you should be fine if you follow the instructions correctly. Unfortunately for you, if you put too many clothes on it, it may bend a little and droop. It still holds a lot of clothes, though, while still staying taut. Just don’t try to put an absurd amount of clothes on it.Retractable washing lines from Brabantia are usually sleek and well designed and this one is no exception. Its a wall-mounted retractable washing line that works great anywhere. The first thing you’ll notice is how easy it is to open and close; you can do it with one hand. For all intense purposes, it is a rotary washing line minus the pole and mounted on a wall. It is one of the better-looking washing lines on the market. TWIN LINES: The total length of the PVC wire across both lines is 30M. The twin retractable lines (15m each) have allowed for additional space for your drying needs. The dual clothesline is perfect for protecting the cleanliness of your washing because of its automatic retraction system. The automatic retraction system rewinds both lines with ease, helping the wires to remain clean and covered when not in use. We really like this little wall-mounted clothes washing line. While not exactly heavy-duty, It feels like it will not break unless abused, and when it’s stored away, it’s hardly noticeable. It’s also very easy to use. This retractable clothes line is sturdy once installed. It has recessed side handles to extend it easily and it stores flush with the wall when its in the collapsed position. Here is a list of features to consider. The best retractable wishing lines incorporate several of the below qualities. Weatherproof construction
Even if you have a tumble dryer at home, using it is expensive, bad for your clothes and bad for the environment. Basically, you want to air dry if you possibly can, but that isn’t always easy. Your outdoor space may be too precious for you to want to give up any of it to a washing line, or you may only be able to air dry clothes indoors. We don’t like how it attaches at the free end. The user has to wrap it around the anchor point on the base of the unit, and it can sometimes slip, leaving a sag in the line. The sturdiest lines are made out of steel coated in PVC. This makes them strong and weather-resistant. Typically they last much longer. However, they can also become extremely brittle when exposed to prolonged sunlight. Additionally, if they’re put under excessive loads they tend to stretch and deform to a point where they will not return to their original shape. There are still some fabric/rope/ nylon lines floating about but these do have a shorter lifespan and have proven unpopular over recent years. Fitting a retractable wash lineThe next valuable quality has to be the overall available capacity of your washing. You will need plenty of lines, especially if you have a larger family. However, there is an apparent trade-off between storage capacity and convenience with some retractable washing lines as they are often made for use in smaller spaces inside the home. Don’t expect a retractable to compete with a rotary washing line. However, the capabilities of some models will surprise you. Finally, you want to think about what kind of retractable clothesline is best for you. We’ve stretched the definition of retractable clothesline a little to include wall-mounted rotary washing lines and foldable (concertina-style) washing lines. Our logic is that they both do the same essential job and they can be really handy if you only have one available wall. Siting and installing a retractable washing line If you want to dry your washing naturally in the fresh air, yet only have a small garden, this outdoor retractable clothes line is ideal. The Minky provides a full 30 m of drying space on two lines, so it can be used to span a balcony or patio. And, because there are two lines, each line can point to a different section of your garden to really maximise drying space – which is ideal if you have a large family and do a lot of washing. The Artweger is visually more appealing than most retractable washing lines, and that alone is a good reason to choose this option. Aim to wash “little and often” so you can give your clothes plenty of space making it easier for the air to get between them. Even if you are renting, you might want to consider swapping out your standard light fitting for one with an integrated ceiling fan. These are widely available, very affordable and easy to fit.
