1800 mm Wide Clothesline: Ideal for Tight Spaces

The 1800 mm width makes this folding frame clothesline one of the most versatile options in the Air Dry range. It fits comfortably into narrow side paths, unit balconies, townhouse courtyards, and compact outdoor areas, where larger clotheslines simply won’t work.

Despite its compact size, the Air Dry 1800 is highly customisable. You can select from five depth options to suit your available space and laundry volume:

  Suitable for wall mounting, ground mounting using a ground mount kit, or installation on top of concrete slabs using a base plate kit.

Depending on the depth selected, the clothesline provides between 6 and 14 lines and up to 27 metres of line space, making it suitable for small to medium households.

Flexible Clothesline Mounting Options: Wall or Ground

The Air Dry 1800 is designed with flexible installation options, allowing it to suit a wide range of properties and surfaces:

• Wall Mounted – Ideal for brick walls, rendered masonry, or solid structures

• Standard Ground Mount Kit – Suitable for soil, grass, and garden beds

• On Top of Concrete– A base plate kit is perfect for concrete slabs, allowing you to install beside your garage, closer to the laundry etc.

• Core Drilling Installation – Provides maximum strength in hard surfaces

This adaptability ensures your clothesline is securely installed and positioned for optimal airflow and sun exposure.

Add a Low Line Attachment for Extra Drying Space

For households needing additional drying capacity, the optional Low Line Attachment is a practical upgrade:

Folds flat when not in use

Matches the main frame colour and finish

Constructed from durable, powder-coated steel

Ideal for smaller items, towels, or overflow laundry

It’s an excellent way to increase line space without increasing the footprint of your clothesline.
