    We are looking to have a tap and also put an old style reel maybe of wrought iron on our garage!

    I am looking for some ideas on what might look well.

    Our garage big door is ivory and also our windows in the garage are ivory also!
    We have a granite wall running close to garage on different sides too.

    I think it might be a nice feature on it. Not sure what else to go with in relation to garage (maybe a nice lamp over door) (I'm not sure if I would go with creepers up one wall, I know they look lovely but would they be a lot of mainteance?)

    If anyone has any recommendations for a nice traditional hose reel I don't mind paying some extra to get it done.

    Thanks all!

    Never considered it but thank you, might be nice already especially if painted up!

    If you get a wheel hub to mount the rim you can wind the hose on and off early. Try a wreckers yard though it's pricy as you then have to cut the hub free, weld it to mounts and have a wall strong enough to hold the weight.
