Clotheslines Lake Macquarie NSW
For those of you who are researching about the best clotheslines in Lake Macquarie NSW, let us take the burden from you by helping you determine which of the many designs and form factorswill work best with your needs.
Since there are tons of airers out on the market with varying shapes and sizes, it can get quite overwhelming to those who are not technically incline.
A really good thing about this though is there is a lot of styles to choose from regardless if you live in a big house, townhouse or even a condominium.
What You Need in a Clothesline
Situated in the northern part of Greater Newcastle and Sydney, Lake Macquarie is one of the cooler cities found in New South Wales so since you live here, you are probably accustomed to the frequent rain showers.
The best formula for a perfect clothesline in Lake Macquarie:
- Galvanised steel construction with powder coat paint
- Full stainless steel frame is the best, aluminium is another great option
- Look for a model with generous space between drying lines
- Simple design guarantees reliability
In a relatively cool place like Lake Macquarie, condensation is another concern (on top of the humidity and rain) so it is a must to own an airer that is very resilient against corrosion; this brings us to the type of metal used on your clothesline-to-be.
To get straight to the point, if money is not an issue then you should go for a model that is completely made out of stainless steel—we strongly recommend this if you live close to the shore.
Another smart choice would be aluminium, it is very tough against corrosion and can last for a very long time if the right airer is chosen however, pay close attention to the rigidity of the aluminium frame since many manufacturers use a thinner gauge to save on production costs.
Galvanised steel is a very tough material that is great for clotheslines while keeping the cost low.
Sometimes it is even harder than stainless steel due to the higher iron content, although, it is not as resistant to corrosion.
The ultimate deal breaker when it comes to clotheslines is the drying performance.
After all, what’s the point of getting one if it can barely do its job? Choose one that has enough space between the cords so airflow and sunlight isn’t impeded.

A good way to measure this is by using the width of your palm, as long as it isn’t narrower than your palm you should be in the clear, rotary hoists, retractables and fold-downs are usually the champion in this aspect.
