Air hose reel mounted securely to your garage wall. Properly fixed at the right height so you can actually use it, with no risk of it pulling off when you reel in.
### Sick of Tripping Over Coiled Air Hose?
You know the drill - compressor in the corner, **30 metres of kinked air hose** in a heap on the floor, constantly getting under your feet or run over by the car.
You bought a wall-mount hose reel to sort it. Now it's sitting in its box in the corner because you can't face drilling into the garage wall or you're not sure it'll hold.
Fair enough - these things need proper fixing or they **rip straight off the wall** the first time you give the hose a tug.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Air hose reels pull sideways when you extend the hose. Mount them to solid masonry with proper plugs, not just plasterboard with plastic anchors. Otherwise they'll come off.

What to Expect
### Step 1: Find The Right Spot We'll work out the best position - near your compressor usually, at a height that's comfortable to use, on solid wall that'll take the load. ### Step 2: Mount Securely I drill and plug the wall properly (hitting studs if timber frame, using proper masonry fixings if brick). Reel goes on level and tight. ### Step 3: Test The Load Pull the hose out fully and reel it back in to check everything's smooth and the mounting's not shifting. Should be rock solid.

Good to Know
> 🔧 **Setting up a proper garage?** If you're doing this plus other garage storage (bike hooks, shelving, tool boards), let me know. Doing multiple jobs together saves you on call-out costs. **Compressor already fitted?** Perfect - I'll position the hose reel where it makes sense with your existing setup. If you haven't got the compressor yet, tell me your plan so I mount the reel in a sensible spot. **Rented property?** Check with your landlord before I drill holes in the garage wall. Most don't care about garages like they do the house, but better to ask first.
Frequently Asked Questions about Air hose reel wall mount in Crediton
What's involved in mounting an air hose reel?
I find the best position on your garage wall (usually near your compressor or where you work on tyres), mark it level, drill and fix with proper wall plugs, then mount the reel securely. Takes about 30-45 minutes depending on your wall type.
Will it work on my garage wall?
Probably - most garages have either brick, block, or timber frame walls. Brick and block are ideal (super solid). Timber frame needs a bit more care to hit the studs but works fine. I'll check what you've got and use the right fixings.
How high should an air hose reel be mounted?
Usually about shoulder height - makes it easy to pull the hose out and rewind without bending. But I adjust based on your garage layout, ceiling height, and where you actually use it most. There's no point mounting it perfectly if it's inconvenient to use.
Do I need to buy the hose reel myself?
Yes - this is just the mounting service. You pick the hose reel that suits your needs (different lengths, pressures, auto-rewind or manual). I just get it on the wall properly so it doesn't fall off when you use it.
Can you fit it near my compressor?
Definitely - that's usually the best spot. Keeps the hose reach sensible and everything in one area. I just need to check there's solid wall nearby to mount to, not just the compressor sitting against plasterboard.
