ELEY hose reels are offered in two capacity options. All reels are shipped as STANDARD capacity reels.  By assembling the reel with an optional Extra-Capacity Kit, the standard model is modified to accommodate more hose. 

Since the maximum capacity of the standard models is 125-feet of 5/8-inch hose, we don't allow any hose lengths longer than 125-feet to be bundled with a standard-capacity garden hose reel. 

Likewise, since the EXTRA-CAPACITY hose reels will accommodate lengths over 125-feet and up to 200-feet, we don't allow the shorter lengths of garden hose to be bundled with an extra-capacity hose reel. In other words, don't pay for the Extra-Capacity Kit if you don't need it. 

If, in the future, you decide you need more than 125-feet of hose, you can simply purchase the Extra-Capacity Kit and then modify your standard-capacity hose reel.

The ELEY Difference

A Great Solution for Challenging Locations

Sometimes, there is no good vertical structure near an outdoor faucet where a wall-mount hose reel can be installed. Our wood post garden hose reel is an ideal solution for these situations. It is perfect for remote locations or homes with challenging surfaces like stucco or vinyl siding. This reel model combines our wall-mount hose reel (item #1041) with our wood post kit accessory (item #1125). The wood post kit is designed to attach to 4x4, 4x6, or 6x6-inch wood posts. Wood post not included.

The ELEY Difference

Drinking-Safe, No-Leak Plumbing

The entire plumbing of all ELEY hose reels consists of just two high-quality, drinking-water-safe components: a 6-1/2 foot x 5/8-inch ID polyurethane inlet hose and a lead-free ECO-brass swivel, which features proprietary ball-bearings for ultra-smooth operation and a revolutionary freeze-resistant design that delivers a full 3/4-inch flow of water volume. Both components are backed by our unprecedented 10-year NO-leak, NO-fail guarantee!

The ELEY Difference

Rugged, Rust-Proof Construction

Forget about rusting frames, collapsing lightweight tubing, or the frustrations of plastic components twisting, binding, and breaking under the weight of water-filled hose. The rigidity and strength of our aluminum-alloy construction, combined with stainless-steel hardware, and a durable powder-coat finish, means 10+ years of rust & trouble-free performance; guaranteed!

The ELEY Difference

Practical, Easy-To-Use Functionality

We're not just the most durable hose reel on the market but also one of the most enjoyable to use. Several common-sense features were specifically designed into the reels to make your watering tasks easier and frustration-free. Our innovative cam-lever brake, along with a rugged, comfort-grip crank handle, and smooth-spin axle bushings, all combine to take the "work" out of your watering and cleaning activities. All ELEY reels can also be configured for either left or right-hand rewinding.

Frequently Asked Questions - Wood Post Reel

These FAQs are specific to the wood-post mount garden hose reel, model 1041W. For general FAQs about all ELEY reels, visit our Garden Hose Reels FAQs.
What is the actual wood post dimension that the brackets will mount to?

Lumber dimensions are a bit misleading. When the board is first rough cut from the log, it is to the true measurement, such as a 4" x 6" post. However, the drying process and planning of the board reduces it to its finished dimensions. As such, our reference to a 4"x 6" post, is actually a 3-1/2" x 5-1/2" post. The wood post kit that comes with this hose reel, is designed to fit on posts whose exact width is either 3-1/2" or 5-1/2".
Can the hose reel wall plate be attached to the wood post in a horizontal position?

No. The wall mount hose reel must be assembled into the parallel configuration and the wall plate rotated into a vertical position. The end of the wall plate in which the hose reel arm attaches to it can be positioned on either the top or bottom of the vertical positioning. 
What is the best height to mount the reel to the post?

Because we are only discussing one variable at this time (height), consider the following ergonomic principles: 1) all work activities should permit the worker to adopt several different, but equally healthy and safe postures 2) where muscular force has to be exerted it should be done by the largest appropriate muscle groups available. 3) work activities should be performed with the joints at about the mid-point of their range of movement. This applies particularly to the head, trunk, and upper limbs. If possible, position the center of the reel six inches below your belt.
Is it okay to mount this aluminum-alloy reel to a pressure-treated wood post?

The pressure treatments ACQ – (Alkaline Copper Quaternary) and CA – (Copper azole) are very corrosive and contact with aluminum should always be avoided. The paint on the wood post L-shaped brackets should provide an adequate barrier. However, if you want additional protection, you can place a stainless-steel washer between each of the four wood post brackets and the pressure treated post.
What size of hole should I dig for the wood post?

We recommend the hole be 30 inches deep and 12 inches in diameter.  We don't recommend an 8-inch diameter hole, following the recommendations of the concrete manufacturers. There must be enough concrete from the corner of the post to the edge of the hole. A 4 x 4 post in an 8-inch hole would only give 1-1/2 inches of concrete.  Freeze-thaw cycles and loads on the post could easily crack that thin of material. Visit the QUICKRETE website for more details and an informative video on Setting Posts in Concrete.   
I have a question about the mounting and installation of this model.

Please visit our Assembly Instructions - Post-Mount Hose Reel to view assembly and installation FAQs, downloadable PDF instruction manuals, and step-by-step assembly demonstration videos.
Is assembly required?

Yes, however, don't let that scare you away. Quick and easy assembly was one of our R&D team's primary objectives when designing the durable ELEY hose reels. We provide an excellent assembly manual with the hose reel as well as a full step-by-step video demonstration of the assembly and installation on this website.  Please visit our Assembly Instructions - Post-Mount Hose Reel page if you'd like to preview the manual and video.
Can the reel be removed for winter storage without removing the wall plate?

Yes, The post-mounted hose reel can be removed from the axle/wall plate without removing the wall plate from the post.  Please see the steps below.

  1. Disconnect your hose from the brass swivel.  (You will leave your hose wrapped up on the reel for storage.)
  2. Unthread the brass swivel from the axle of the reel by loosening the silver retaining nut from the axle by turning it counter-clockwise.
  3. Pull the swivel and about 6” of hose out the front side of the reel
  4. Unthread the brass swivel from the inlet hose.
  5. Slide the cam-lever brake off the axle.
  6. Slide the hose reel off of the axle and take it to your designated space for winter storage along with the swivel, brake, and inlet hose assembly.
