Fixing for Drying Time

I like my indoor retractable close line.  However, truth be told, I don't often retract it as I am hanging a load of laundry every other day. 

There is only one thing I do not like, the construction is made with flimsy plastic.  I have already replaced one line.  I was not going to purchase a third when this one broke.  Time to modify!

I removed the short thin angled hooks, spackled, installed a board with 4 inch long screws and repainted.  I then removed the broken plastic bar from the lines and tied the lines to the screws.  I can still retract the line when / if I need to by untying the line.  I just need to make sure the single line does not go all the way into the roller.
