Frequently Asked Questions
How much drying space does the 6-line retractable clothesline give me?
The Hills 6-line retractable clothesline provides 40m of drying space when fully extended, with each line reaching up to 6.75m, so you’ve got room for everyday loads plus bulky items like king-size sheets. If you regularly dry for a bigger household and want even more line space, the 7-Line Retracting Clothesline is a handy step up.
Will this retracting clothesline work in a small courtyard?
Yes, this is designed as a compact, space-saving clothesline. The unit is only 0.85m wide and sits neatly against the wall or post when not in use, then retracts out when you need full drying space. If you’re working with an even tighter area and smaller loads, the 4-Line Retracting Clothesline can be a more compact option.
Can I mount this retractable clothesline onto a brick wall?
In most cases, yes, this wall-mounted retractable clothesline can be fixed securely to solid surfaces like brick or masonry (using appropriate fixings for your wall type). If you don’t have a suitable wall where you want it installed, you can also set it up as a post-mounted retracting clothesline using the Retracting Post Kit.
How do I stop my retracting clothesline lines from sagging?
A little movement can happen if the load isn’t evenly spread, so it helps to distribute washing across all lines and avoid putting all the weight in one spot. This model also includes high-tension springs in each line and a handle-controlled tension setting to help keep things firm, if you’re still having trouble, it’s worth following the steps to troubleshoot sagging lines.
Are there installation videos for Hills retracting clotheslines?
Yes, along with the downloadable manual and installation guide, there are step-by-step videos that walk through the setup for current retracting models. If you like seeing the process before you start drilling, Hills Retracting Clothesline Videos are a helpful place to begin.
