Step by step
1Hold the rail to the ceiling. Mark screw hole positions with a pencil.
2Drill holes at marked positions using a Ø 8 mm drill bit.
3Insert anchors into each drilled hole and screw each rail firmly to the ceiling through the bracket holes.
4Position both rails. Second rail distance = rod length (X) minus 2 cm. Drill and fix the second rail in the same manner.
5Measure the rope clamp at 130–160 cm from floor.
6Mark screw hole positions with a pencil.
7Drill holes for the rope clamp in the same manner.
8Insert anchors into each drilled hole and screw the clamp firmly to the wall where it was marked.
9Straighten both ends down on both sides.
10Thread one side rope through the rail. Pull until rope feeds through correctly.
11Pass both rope ends through the second rail.
12Raise rod fully to 0 cm reference position against the ceiling.
13Feed ropes end through the rope cap. Confirm it hangs at correct length.
14Tie a secure double knot (x2) through the rope cap to secure rod.
15Lower the rod fully to confirm it moves freely without obstruction.
16Tie off each rope end (x2) securely through the rope cap.
17Installation complete. Pull rope to raise or lower the rod.
To operate

FAQ
Questions
How does it install?
It screws into your ceiling. Some assembly is required, and instructions come in the box. You can also follow the step-by-step installation guide above or download it as a PDF.
Where can I put it?
Laundry rooms, balconies, over the bathtub, closets and store rooms. It works indoors and outdoors.
How much can it hold?
Up to 26 lb in total, spread over 6 rods. That is 24 feet of drying space.
Do I have to lower the whole rack?
No. Every rod has its own pulley, so you can bring down one rod at a time.

No. It is fully manual: a cord and pulley, nothing to plug in.
How do I take care of it?
Wipe off any dust now and then, and tighten the screw rod if it gets loose.
