Why Rails & Trellises?

Wall mounted rails are a great way to dry clothes and towels or make it easier to get around the bathroom and bedroom. Trellises give plants a framework to grow and provide economical and lightweight outdoor fencing.

 

Step-By-Step

Decide on height and location of rail or trellis


Tip
Your plugs must be strong enough to be driven into the wall and withstand the elements.
 


Use the spirit level to draw a horizontal line on wall If putting up a rail, carefully mark off points where rail will be fixed. If you´re putting up a trellis, transfer fixing holes to wall, carefully holding trellis in position Drill holes with a correctly sized drill bit Put plugs in the holes Finally, screw the rail or trellis in place.
