Abstract: A storage device for coiled articles, such as electrical cords and hoses, includes a tubular plug adapted to be imbedded in a wall cavity. A spool is provided which is adapted to hold coiled articles. The spool is telescopically received within the tubular plug. The spool is movable between an extended position extending from the tubular plug and a retracted position retracted within the tubular plug. At least one spool guide couples the spool and the tubular plug and provides cantilever support to the spool when the spool is in the extended position. A locking engagement is provided for locking the spool in the retracted position. This storage device provides improves aerodynamics and aesthetics. It is particularly suited for the recreational vehicle market, where there are width restrictions prescribed by law.
