If you hit a stud, no problem. If you don't his a stud, it will eventually
pull out of the sheathing and then you have holes left in the siding. Get a
hose reel that sits on the ground. Get a good one as the cheap ones are
frustrating to use and a waste of money. Triton makes the absolute best, but
are pricey.
