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.
