Re: foldable clothesline

Hi @ammusb,

 

Thank you for your question and welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it is fantastic to have you with us.

 

Depending on the style and make of clothesline, it may be possible to order spare parts, or to attach some additional metal supports to the frame, but it is hard to tell without seeing it. Is it possible to upload some photos of the clothesline so our members can offer their best advice specific to your situation?

 

Let me know if you need help uploading images, I'd be happy to assist if required.

 

There are also many options for replacement clotheslines that I'd be happy to offer installation advice on if you feel your current clothesline is too damaged to fix.

 

Let me know what you think.

 

Jacob

Re: foldable clothesline

Hi @ammusb,

 

It appears that the internal mechanism holding the clothesline frame up has broken. Unless we could determine the exact model, and given the relatively budget-friendly options available, it would likely be best to replace the clothesline rather than try to repair it.

 

If you purchased a new clothesline of the same width, the existing posts can be used.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions.

 

Mitchell
