| Frequently
Asked Questions |
|
|
| |
Do
the clothes airers come with everything I will need? |
|
Our clothes airers comprise of four or six wooden
laths suspended between two cast iron rackends and
come with a full working pulley system as standard,
which screws into the ceiling joists and allows the
airer to be raised and lowered as needed.
For most installations this is all that will be required,
however depending where you wish to position the airer
and the height of your ceiling, you may wish to consider
adding an extra double screw pulley and/or rope extension
to your order.
All of our clothes airers come with a full set of
instructions to guide you through the installation
process and these are also available to view on our
website by following the link on the left hand side
of the page. |

How
wide are they and what clearance height do I need? |
| Our
4 lath clothes airers are 360mm wide and our 6 lath
is 610mm wide. When fully hoisted to the ceiling we
recommend allowing for a clearance height of 22.5cm
and this will allow for the depth of the rack and
pulley combined. |

Will
I need a sash cord extension, hanging hooks or extra
double pulley? |
| When
placing your order you are given the option to add
an extra double pulley, a 5m sash cord extension or
a pack of our hanging hooks to the airer you are buying.
The extra double pulley allows you to position the
clothes airer away from the wall as shown in the diagram
above. The extra sash cord extension is useful if
you have a particularly high ceiling and the hooks
are a nice addition as they allow you to hang pots
and pans or other decorative items such as dried herbs
from your airer. |

|
| |
Can
I use the clothes airer on an uneven or sloping ceiling? |
| Our
airers are perfect for a sloping ceiling as both ropes
can be adjusted and set to different lengths ensuring
that the rack remains level. In fact as long as you
can install the pulleys above where the rackends will
hang and can run a length of rope between them without
obstruction, our clothes airers can be installed just
about anywhere. |

What
is the difference between the Classic, Edwardian and
Deluxe? |
The Classic Clothes airer is our most popular model
and is the most economically priced. It comes in
a choice of 4 laths at 360mm wide or 6 laths at
610mm wide and has a flat design to it which allows
for more clearance height.
Based on a traditional British design, our Edwardian
clothes airer has a more arched, aesthetically pleasing
appearance which is ideal for the more traditional
kitchen. It is also slightly larger than the classic
at 380mm wide and 150mm high.
Our Deluxe Clothes Airer comes with the Pulleymaid
emblem, which has been skilfully cast into the centre
of each rackend. This provides an unusually solid
design, and with both the double and single pulleys
containing authentic cast iron wheels, it is possibly
our most exclusive clothes airer ever made. |

Are
the wooden laths treated or left natural? |
Our wooden laths are produce from sustainable natural
redwood pine and are supplied untreated. They are
finished to the highest possible standard and will
not snag or stain your clothes.
Some customers may be tempted to treat the laths
themselves and if you are planning to do this, please
remember that some stains and varnishes may transfer
when wet washing is placed on top. If you are planning
to do this, we would advise you to consult a DIY
specialist before doing so to ensure that the correct
product is being applied.

|
| |
Can
I buy a clothes airer without the wooden laths? |
We sell a range of spares and accessories which
can been ordered together to make up a clothes airer
kit without the wooden laths. This is often an attractive
option for people wanting take their clothes airer
abroad, however do please bear in mind that we can
deliver to most parts of Europe for just £15.00
which would work out cheaper than ordering the components
separately and having the laths made. .
