    Frequently Asked Questions

    Yes, the Retractaway 40 has a minimum extension of just 2m. This means you can pull the lines out from the cabinet any distance from 2m up to 8m(10m for the extended version) and the lines can be locked.   
    Yes, you can add 1 or 2 Post Kits to your order if you don’t have a wall available.
    A Plated Post Kit allows you to bolt the post down onto an existing concrete area rather than core drilling or jack hammering holes into the concrete. The post has a metal plate welded on the bottom with holes for dyna-bolting down onto the concrete. 
    To compare all of the Retractaway 40's features against Hills, Brabantia, and Daytek clotheslines that are similar, kindly visit our Austral Retractaway 40 clothesline comparison chart.
    A general rule of thumb is to install the clothesline so that the lines are approx. 50mm above the users head height. An average height is approx. 1800mm but you can adjust this to suit your requirements.
