Additional options

Why would I need a 15m rope?

This is useful when you are positioning the clothes airer away from the wall or if you have high ceilings. In this case it’s advisable to also buy an additional double pulley.

When do I need an extra double pulley?

When you are positioning your airer in a larger room and away from the wall. The extra pulley will keep the rope close to the ceiling and provide a good angle down the wall to the cleat. Please see diagram on assembly instructions. (If you are using wall brackets you will need 3 wall brackets if you order an extra double pulley)

How do rubber grippers help?

These prevent your wooden slats from sliding. They are easily fitted to each end of every wooden slat by pushing them up to the metal rackends. You can even put them on the inside of the rack ends so they are less visible. Available in black only.

Wall Brackets?

Fix to the wall instead of the ceiling with our bespoke wall brackets. You would normally require 2 brackets but 3 if an additional double pulley is needed for larger rooms. For more information see the Wall Bracket TAB under the ADD TO BASKET. A black airer will come with black brackets as standard. A white airer will come with white brackets as standard. If you are ordering a coloured airer please let us know which you would prefer.

Assembly

The Five is our contemporary ceiling airer

The Five is a great addition to a modern kitchen or utility room.  This ceiling airer has an overall width of 46cm and has brushed stainless steel rack ends with high quality pinewood slats.  The slats will come finished to a high standard and are untreated for those delicate laundry items.

The design looks equally at home in a modern flat or country residence.

The Five is a high capacity drying rack with a flatter profile than most traditional cast iron airers.  This means when it is fully retracted it takes up only 10 inches (25cm) space in the ceiling void.  This clearance height will avoid most doors.

This modern ceiling mounted rack comes complete with its own pulley system.

This makes it ideal as a drying rack or even a kitchen utensil hanger.  Included are single and double pulleys (Black or White) which are made of high quality cast iron and highly durable nylon wheels.  Also included is a matching cast iron wall cleat hook with fixings and 10m of quality British made cotton rope.

Your order will arrive with everything you need in the box, including fixings, to get your ceiling mounted airer system utilising the trapped warm air in your ceiling space
