Frequently Asked Questions

Factual information regarding sizes, installation, materials, and ordering your The Washline Co. Foldaway.

QDoes the Foldaway washing line rust?

The Foldaway frame is made from aluminium. Unlike conventional steel or galvanised-steel washing lines, aluminium does not rust. Frames are professionally epoxy powder-coated to provide a weatherproof finish, and machine screws used in assembly are stainless steel.

QWhat is the difference between the Standard Foldaway and the DIY Assemble Kit?

The Standard Foldaway is delivered completely assembled and strung. The DIY Assemble Kit is delivered in kit form in a strong cardboard tube (approx. 10 cm in diameter) for easier transportation and requires basic assembly using a rubber mallet.

QWhich size is best for Queen-size bedding?

The 2.3 m × 80 cm model has approximately six lines spaced approximately 10 cm apart and provides approximately 13.5 metres of hanging space. It can accommodate normal queen-size fitted sheets and duvet covers without requiring them to be folded back. The 2.6 m model caters for king-size sheets.

QHow much wall clearance is needed?

Customers require approximately 10 cm of additional wall space. For example, a 2.3 m Foldaway requires approximately 2.4 m of wall space.

QWhat is the recommended mounting height?

The Washline Co. recommends mounting the washing line at approximately 1.85 metres high.

QCan the Foldaway be mounted onto Vibracrete walls?

Yes, spacer blocks can be used when installing onto suitable vibracrete walls where the upright pillars obstruct the back bar. Spacer blocks are supplied on request.

QWhat tools are required for the DIY Assemble Kit?

A rubber mallet is required to connect the arms to the front and back bars.

QWhat is your satisfaction guarantee?

The Washline Co. offers a 100% satisfaction / money-back guarantee in the event that the customer is not satisfied with the product or service.
