How to Install Your Own Clothes Line?
Installing a clothes line is moderately easy, take out the things you need to set a clothes line and let us start fixing one. What you need is hooks, Pulleys, a Step Ladder and a UV resistant clothes line rope.
- Do you find two trees near you? Screw the wood hooks into them, space the trees far enough so that it can hold a large amount of laundry. Tie the rope extra tight at both the ends, the rope may loosen a bit after you add wet clothes on it.
- Find a building or a tree that is a bit far from you porch or back door and fix the pulley onto it. Take another pulley and fix that one on your back door or your porch. In both the pulleys, stick in a long rope and tie a firm knot to keep them together. This will make it convenient and simple to dry your laundry just standing on your back door. You can hang your laundry at one side and just push the other side to the second pulley.
- Tie two rope lines concreted at least 2 feet from the ground level and length of 7 foot t-supports. String the laundry line across and place several screws on either side of t-section. This is a better way to dry laundry out of sight thus placing the lines in sun.
- If you want to, you can also set up a clothes line that is at a lower level that the other one so that your children can dry their own laundry and also take them off without any help.
Setting up an outdoor clothes line will allow you to cut back on costs, save energy along with giving laundry a fragrance of nature.
