| 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. |
|
| Why
would 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.

| 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.
