The Liberty Garden 704 is a wall-mounted hose reel that prioritizes structural rigidity and space-saving. Crafted from cast aluminum with a bronze finish, this unit is designed to remain permanently fixed to a home or garage wall. Unlike mobile carts, this system provides a stable platform for winding up to 125 feet of hose without the risk of the unit moving or tipping.
A key feature of the 704 is the 90-degree solid brass swivel joint. This component is designed to allow the hose to move freely without kinking at the connection point. Because the chassis is aluminum, it is naturally resistant to the "chalking" or brittleness often seen in plastic reels exposed to constant sunlight. However, the brass internals should be drained before the first frost to prevent trapped water from expanding and causing damage.
While the unit includes standard mounting hardware, professional installers often suggest using 3-inch stainless steel lag bolts to ensure the reel stays level when supporting the combined weight of the metal frame and a water-filled hose. The metal crank handle is built to handle the torque required to pull in a heavy hose, offering a more tactile and durable feel than plastic handles.
- The wall-mount design keeps the hose off the ground and out of the way of lawnmowers.
- Cast aluminum construction provides long-term resistance to UV rays.
- The decorative scrollwork adds a traditional aesthetic to the home's exterior.
If you prefer not to drill into your siding, a portable option like the Yard Butler Compact Cart offers mobility without the permanent installation.
Wall-mounted solutions are excellent for keeping walkways clear, and more specialized storage can be found in our hose reel carts section.
