Before & after

No more drying racks all over the house

Floor racks take over the laundry room, the dining room, the bedroom. Move it all up to the ceiling and get your room back.

Before: laundry hung on improvised lines and piled on the machines in a cluttered laundry room
Before

Racks on the floor, clothes on lines, doors and chairs. Nowhere to walk.

After: the same laundry room with clothes drying on the ceiling rack and the floor clear
After

Laundry up by the ceiling, floor clear, room looks tidy while it dries.

How it works

Lower. Hang. Raise.

  1. Woman pulling a cord to lower a rod of the ceiling drying rack
    1

    Lower

    Untie the cord from the wall hook and the rod comes down to you. No ladder, no bending down.

  2. Woman hanging clothes on hangers onto the lowered rods
    2

    Hang

    Hang shirts, pants and towels on hangers or straight over the rod. Each rod moves on its own, so lower just the one you need.

  3. Bright bathroom with the drying rack raised up near the ceiling

    Raise

    Pull the cord, tie it off, and your laundry dries up by the ceiling, out of the way.

    14Tie a secure double knot (x2) through the rope cap to secure rod.

  15. Step 15: Rod lowered to check it moves freely

    15Lower the rod fully to confirm it moves freely without obstruction.
