Attach Galvanized Hook to Gable Wall For Clothes line

Jurgen Klopp

I want to install some sort of ring or hook on to the gable end of the house so I can run a simple one line clothes line from it to the main clothes line

Just tie it to the wall hook and run it across to the main line and just tie on to one of the poles

Now my main thing is it will need to be well secured I'm assuming with a couple of handy bolts at least given teh weight of wet clothes

Any one I look up is weak and only secured by a few screws

Anyone rec a decent strong fitting

A simple glavanised steel screw eye would do the job, available in various gauges/ sizes, get one big enough to use with a 10mm wall plug and this should hold up a washing line.

some of the local co -op s and agri stores have hooks that bolt to the wall for tying animals to


there are also rawl bolts with a loop on the end. you would have a had job pulling one of them from the wall.

This is what you want;

If you just need the one your local hardware is the place, or pay double in woodies/b&q etc.
You'll need a masonry bit and a drill with hammer action. The size of bit will depend on the size of bolt.

Thanks so much

I assume the eye shield anchor and rawl bolt are the same thing?
