This type of setup is call a post to post installation and requires 2 x Post Kits, 1 x Mount Bar and 1 x Clothesline Unit.
If you would like the posts to be removable, you can also add ground sockets which allows for the posts to be removed after installation.
The Mount Bar is only required if you want to install the clothesline cabinet onto a Post Kit.
If you are mounting the clothesline cabinet to a brick wall or concrete surface you do not need a mount bar.

The socket is what you cement in and the post simply slots into this making it removable at any time to make room for a party.
Please note it is not recommended to have 2 posts removable with sockets due to the tension of this type of product.
The clothesline cabinet post should be permanently fixed.
