Some laundries need extra height rather than extra width, particularly where appliances or benchtops sit higher than average. A tall adjustable dryer stand gives you that vertical flexibility, rather than locking you into a single fixed height. Britec Innovative Products builds this adjustability into two specific models.
Britec’s Adjustable and Ultra models both include height adjustment, though they approach it slightly differently.
This model adjusts in both width and height, suiting top and front loading washing machines. It’s rated to hold up to 80 kilograms and includes adjustable feet for uneven floors.
The Ultra also adjusts in width and height, but adds an extra low height option alongside two shelf height choices. This gives more flexibility at both ends of the height range compared to the standard Adjustable model.
Britec offers different freestanding configurations because a top loader, a standard front loader and a confined laundry do not require the same solution.
Top & front loaders
An adjustable option for households that need clearance above a top loader or flexibility around a front loader.
Two-dryer solution
A vertical two-tier configuration created for households that need to organise more than one dryer above a front loader.
Front loaders
A front-loader solution designed to move into position more easily in laundries where access around the washing machine is limited.
Most discussions around dryer stands focus on fitting the washing machine’s width, but height clearance matters just as much in plenty of laundries. Raised washing machines, taller appliances, or simply wanting extra shelf clearance can all call for a taller, adjustable stand.
A few questions help clarify whether the Ultra’s added flexibility is genuinely worth it for your laundry.
Worth asking yourself first:
If your laundry sits within a fairly standard height range, the base Adjustable model likely covers your needs without the Ultra’s added flexibility.
Regardless of which one you choose, both share the same underlying construction. A high quality steel frame, an anti-slip rubber shelf, and adjustable feet all apply equally across the Adjustable and Ultra models.
Both are rated to hold up to 80 kilograms, covering most standard household dryers comfortably.
Britec has both models SGS tested on the relevant units, verifying real structural performance under load. Each comes with a five-year warranty covering defects in material and workmanship, and the business has operated in Australia since 2009.
A few other points worth knowing:
Afterpay and Zip Money are both available at checkout, letting you spread the cost with no interest added. Shipping covers most of Australia through Australia Post or a selected courier, though PO boxes aren’t accepted as a delivery address.
If you’d rather confirm the height adjustment in person, showroom pickup is available in Pemulwuy, New South Wales, and Ripley, Queensland, depending on stock. Installation is also offered in Sydney and Brisbane, generally costing between $120 and $200 depending on location.
Calling a stand tall and adjustable only matters if those two qualities solve a real layout problem. Height adjustment is especially useful above a top loader because the washing machine lid needs space to travel upwards. It can also improve access around a front loader or help a dryer clear taps and controls that sit unusually high on the wall. The point is not to create the tallest possible setup, but to place the shelf where both appliances remain comfortable to use.
That decision is different in every laundry. One room may have a low cupboard above the washer, while another has exposed taps directly behind it. A tall user may prefer more clearance over a top-loader lid, while a shorter household may want the dryer shelf kept as low as compatibility allows. The adjustable design gives room to work with those differences instead of forcing every home into one fixed position.
The Dryer Stand Adjustable and Ultra both offer width and height flexibility, but the Ultra goes lower and includes two shelf choices. That makes Ultra particularly relevant where vertical space is tight. The standard Adjustable remains a capable option where the extra-low position is unnecessary. Choosing between them is less about which model sounds more advanced and more about whether the room benefits from the added setting.
Compare these points before selecting a model:
A tall adjustable dryer stand gives you genuine room to move when your laundry doesn’t fit a standard height setup. Whether the base Adjustable model or the Ultra’s extra options suit you better depends entirely on your own clearance. Reach us today to talk through your laundry’s exact height requirements.
The value of a dryer stand is not simply that it holds an appliance. The design needs to work with the room, the washing machine and the way the household uses the laundry.
Freestanding
No wall brackets or drilling are required for the stand itself.
Adjustable setup
Selected models provide width, height or levelling adjustment.
Anti-slip shelf
Rubber shelf material is designed to reduce dryer movement and vibration.
Portable solution
A practical choice for renters and households planning future moves.
A simple process helps avoid fit issues and makes product selection much easier.
Record the available width, depth and height, including cabinets, doors and services.
Check machine dimensions, dryer weight and top-loader lid clearance where relevant.
Compare your measurements with Britec sizing guides and certified capacity.
Follow the model instructions or arrange professional installation in an available area.
Tony Kahale created the Dryer Stand after identifying a need for a more practical space-saving laundry solution.
The response to the original design led to Britec Innovative Products and an expanding range of home solutions. The company continues to develop products around common household problems, with customer conversations helping shape future designs.
Britec remains Australian owned and operated, with an in-house focus on product quality and personalised customer service.
