FAQs

Does this drying rack require assembly?

No, the OHS 18m Steel Drying Rack arrives fully assembled and ready for immediate use.

Can I use this rack outside?

While it can be used on a patio or balcony in calm weather, it is primarily designed for indoor use and should not be left out in high winds or rain.

How much space does it take up when folded?

When folded, the rack becomes quite slim, typically only a few centimeters thick, allowing it to slide into narrow spaces like laundry rooms or behind doors.

Is the steel frame rust-resistant?

The steel frame features a protective coating; however, it is recommended to keep it clean and store it in a dry area to prevent oxidation.

What is the maximum weight capacity?

The rack is designed for standard laundry loads. It is best to avoid overloading one side to maintain balance, but it comfortably handles a full cycle of wet clothing.

Troubleshooting

Rack feels unstable or wobbly

Ensure the rack is placed on a completely flat, level surface and that all locking mechanisms for the legs are fully engaged.

Difficulty folding the rack

Check for any laundry items or clothing tags caught in the hinges; clear the area and gently fold the wings inward.

Pros and Cons

  • Promotes effective airflow for faster drying cycles
  • Requires no assembly or complex installation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up the OHS 18m Steel Drying Rack is straightforward; simply unfold the legs and lock the wings into the desired position. No tools are required for operation.

To ensure the longevity of your rack:

  1. Weight Distribution: Always balance your laundry load evenly across both sides of the rack to prevent tipping.
  2. Cleaning: Wipe down the steel rails with a damp cloth periodically to remove dust or detergent residue. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that may damage the protective coating.
  3. Storage: Ensure the rack is completely dry before folding and storing it in a dry location to prevent potential corrosion or rust spots over time.
