Ask your QuestionIs there a way to fix a retractable washing g line onto an existing g metal pole rather than attaching retractable box tona wall
Asked by Sue on 18th Mar 2021Best Answer
"Hi this is 100% possible. With all the fittings that are now available in the market putting a retractable washinh line onto an existing metal pole is very do-able. Go to screw fix, b&q or tool station and they will advice you accordingly. Hope that helps."
