Attach Hose Spigot To Siding

If you want to hang something from your vinyl siding don t even think about drilling through it to attach a hook to the sheathing.

Attach hose spigot to siding. If you need more width to the post just get a 4x8 or nail a cross piece of 2x6 to it before you hang the reel. There are at least three alternative ways to do it. Find location inside of house and drill a 1 4 inch pilot hole from the inside through the siding. Cut the siding into two pieces if the faucet will be located in the middle of a piece of siding.

This will give you a clean cut through the siding. Hold each piece up to the faucet pipe and mark with a pencil where the pipe will pass through the. That way you wont ruin your sideing for a hose reel that will likely fall apart in a year. Ground about 3 feet then attach your reel to it.

From outside use a hole saw to drill for your new pipe. If you are using a mounting block you will need to cut out for the block and then pull back the siding to get the backing plate installed.
