Wall Mount Garden Hose Reel
Meet the web's highest-rated garden hose reel. This model can be mounted to virtually any vertical surface in either a parallel or perpendicular configuration. Holds up to 125 feet of 5/8-inch garden hose. 6-1/2-foot inlet hose included. Backed by ELEY's Industry-Leading 10-YEAR No-Leak, No-Fail Guarantee & Warranty.
This One Hose Reel Model Offers Two Directional Mounting Options
IMPORTANT. The configuration option on the product page simply shows the difference in appearance between the parallel and perpendicular assemblies. Regardless of which configuration you order, you'll receive the SAME model, and the innovative ELEY-original design allows you to assemble the reel into EITHER configuration.
Wall Plate Attachment in Parallel Configuration
Assembled in the parallel configuration, the wall plate can be mounted in any position in relation to the wall, including horizontal vertical, or even at a 45% angle. Because the reel is spinning and the hose is being pulled off alongside the wall, it doesn't matter what angle or direction the wall plate is attached to the wall. See diagram below for additional clarification.

Frequently Asked Questions - Wall Mount Reel
These FAQs are specific to the wall mount, model 1041. For general FAQs about all ELEY® reels, visit our Garden Hose Reels FAQs.
What is the size of the wall plate mounting hardware that comes with the reel?
The mounting hardware consists of four of each of the following:
- 1/4" x 2-1/2" Hex-Head, Stainless Steel Wood Lag Screws
- 5/16" x 1-3/4" Anchor Sleeves
What type of walls and surfaces can this reel be mounted?
Whether you want to install this wall mount garden hose reel to a masonry surface such as brick, cement, or cinder block or a wood frame surface such as siding, stucco, or Hardie Plank®, you'll find the answer to all of your questions in our How to Mount a Garden Hose Reel to a House article.
Can this reel be mounted to a flatbed trailer or vehicle?
No. ELEY garden hose reels are not designed to be mounted to a trailer, pickup bed, or any other type of over-the-road vehicle. Doing so will void the warranty and could cause structural failure that could lead to damage, serious injury, or worse.
What's the difference between Parallel and Perpendicular?
The ELEY wall-mount garden hose reel can be configured for EITHER parallel OR perpendicular. Assembled into the parallel configuration, the garden hose will pull off the reel alongside the wall, whereas the perpendicular configuration will pull the hose out straight away from the wall. You decide which configuration will work best for your application during assembly. The configuration you end up with depends on which of the two positions the reel's arm can be attached to the wall plate you choose.
Does this reel pivot or rotate in different directions?
No. This model can be configured and mounted in a fixed parallel or perpendicular direction. The reel can also be reconfigured in either direction at any time by changing the orientation of the arm's attachment to the wall plate. However, the mounting direction is fixed and does not offer a rotating or pivoting action.
Does the sharp bend in the brass swivel restrict water flow?
The change in the shape of the garden hose swivel gooseneck does have a theoretical impact on water flow, but it is so minimal that our digital flow meter with a resolution of 0.01 gallons per minute (GPM) and our pressure drop gauges cannot detect it
Once mounted, can the orientation of the hose reel be changed from parallel to perpendicular or vice versa?
Yes, this can be accomplished by changing the orientation of how the arm & axle assembly is attached to the wall plate. To do so, the wall plate will need to be removed from the wall since the two bolts that attach the arm to it are accessed from the backside of the wall plate. For masonry surfaces that use anchor sleeves, you'll need to re-insert the bolts into the holes slowly and gently to get the threads restarted into the cone-shaped nut inside the anchor sleeve so as not to dislodge it or get the threads out of alignment. We've done this many times during photo shoots. We first take photos of the reel in the parallel position, remove the wall plate, reattach the arm, and remount the hose reel onto the brick wall to get pictures of the perpendicular configuration.
What are the dimensions of the wall plate and mounting holes?
I have a question regarding the mounting and installation of this model.

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 and full step-by-step video demonstrations of the assembly and installation on this website. Please visit our Assembly Instructions - Wall Mount Hose Reel page if you'd like to preview the manual and video.
Can the reel be removed from the wall for the winter without removing the wall plate?
Yes, the wall-mounted hose reel can be removed from the axle/wall plate without removing the mounting bracket. Please see the steps below.
1. Disconnect your hose from the brass swivel. (You will leave your hose 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 counterclockwise.
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 the axle and take it to your designated space for winter storage along with the swivel, brake, and inlet hose assembly.
