Outdoor Flagpoles
What you’ll find
- Residential poles (15–25 ft): Sectional or telescoping designs for front yards, driveways, and small businesses.
- Commercial poles (20–35+ ft): Heavier wall thickness, higher wind ratings, and professional hardware.
- Materials: Aluminum for strength and classic look; fiberglass for coastal corrosion resistance and quiet operation.
- Halyard styles: External halyard for simplicity; internal/locking for security and reduced noise.
- Finishes & toppers: Satin or anodized aluminum, gel-coat fiberglass, and compatible finials (ball, eagle, spear).
How to choose
- Pole height: 15–20 ft for 3'×5' flags; 20–25 ft for 4'×6'; 25–30 ft for 5'×8'.
- Wind rating: Open or coastal sites need higher ratings; check the spec chart for your zone.
- Material match: Choose fiberglass for salt air and aluminum for most inland installs.
- Mounting & base: In-ground sleeve for permanence; use sectional/telescoping for faster installs and relocations.
- Noise & security: Internal halyard reduces clatter and tampering near sidewalks and schools.
Setup tips
- Set the foundation per spec and allow proper cure time.
- Align the truck and topper, lubricate moving parts, and use quality snaps/cleats.
- Add a solar or ground light for respectful dusk-to-dawn illumination
