Why Choose a Wall Mounted Drying Rack?

Clothes horses take up floor space and need moving around. A wall mounted drying rack uses wall space instead, keeps walkways clear and folds away when not in use. It suits towels, shirts, activewear and everyday laundry, and helps you rely less on a clothes dryer.

Where Can You Install a Wall Mounted Drying Rack?

Install it in the laundry above a bench, washing machine or sink, or in the garage away from living areas. It also works on a covered balcony, in the bathroom for towels and delicates, or in a covered outdoor area or carport for natural airflow. It's designed for indoor or covered outdoor use.

What Should You Check Before Buying?

Measure your wall width and allow for the rack's full open depth (40cm or 50cm). Think about how much laundry you usually dry, and whether the rack is going indoors or undercover outdoors. Mount it on a suitable wall, such as plasterboard, brick or masonry, following the included instructions. On weatherboard, install structural timber support first. Never mount it on a fence.
