Flagpoles
What’s inside
- Internal-halyard flagpoles: Clean look with the rope/chains concealed inside the pole. Reduced noise and tamper-resistance for schools, sidewalks, and public buildings.
- External-halyard flagpoles: Workhorse designs with exposed halyard, cleat, and truck—easy to operate and maintain for homes and small businesses.
- Spinning/porch poles: 5–6 ft residential poles with free-spinning collars that prevent wrap-around—perfect for front porches and wall mounts.
How to choose
- Location & use: Internal halyard for high-traffic or quiet zones; external halyard for simple daily flying; wood sets for indoor display; spinning poles for porches.
- Height & flag size: 15–20 ft for 3'×5'; 20–25 ft for 4'×6'; indoor sets match 3'×5' or 4'×6' with 7'–9' poles.
- Material & climate: Aluminum for most installs; fiberglass for coastal corrosion resistance; wood for indoor formality.
- Wind rating: Open/coastal sites need higher ratings—check specs for your zone.
- Accessories: Choose compatible trucks, cleats, snaps, finials, and add a solar or ground light for dusk-to-dawn etiquette.
Setup tips
- Set foundations per spec and allow proper cure time.
- Align truck and topper; inspect halyard and snaps seasonally.
- For porches, use a heavy-duty multi-angle bracket and consider tangle-free flag clips.
