FAQs

Can I install this in a paved patio?

The provided socket is primarily designed for soil or concrete mounting; installation in a paved patio would require cutting through the slab to reach the earth or concrete base.

Does the line need to be removed in winter?

While the PVC coating is weather-resistant, removing the line during harsh winter months can extend its lifespan if the pole is not being used.

What is the total height of the post?

The post stands at 2.4 metres, providing ample height to keep large items off the grass.

Is the ground socket included?

Yes, the kit comes complete with a dedicated ground socket.

Can I replace the 30m line with a longer one later?

Yes, you can replace the provided line with any standard washing line of your choice, provided the eyelets can accommodate the diameter.

Troubleshooting

The post leans or wobbles during high winds

Check the stability of the ground socket. You may need to add more concrete or ensure the soil around the base is tightly packed.

The washing line is sagging

Untie the line at one end, pull it taut to remove the slack, and re-secure it firmly to the eyelets.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal performance, follow these installation guidelines:

Placement: Choose a level area in your garden that receives maximum sunlight and airflow.
Installation: Dig a hole deep enough to house the ground socket. For the best stability, secure the socket using quick-set concrete.
Line Maintenance: Feed the provided PVC-coated line through the top eyelets of the post. Ensure it is pulled tight but not over-stressed.
Care: Periodically wipe the post with a damp cloth to remove grit. If the line becomes slack over time, re-tension it at the anchor points to maintain proper drying height.
