Flagpoles

---

Three Types of Rope Systems

1. External halyard  - This system has ropes on the outside of the pole. This is the most common type of system and the cheapest option.

2. Internal halyard rope – This uses the same rope as the external rope but when the flag is up all the rope will be inside the pole. There is a opening on the pole which has a cam cleat which allows you to lock the rope in place.

3. Internal halyard stainless steel cable – This pole uses 1/8 stainless steel cable that cranks up and down using a handle

There is a height of the pole which is above ground and then there is a butt diameter which is the thickest diameter of the pole. Our poles start from 5″ in diameter and the wall thickness starts at .125 wall thickness.

The options for flagpoles are fiber glass , aluminum and steel. Our recommendation for poles under 80′ would be aluminum. Fiberglass we typically do not install and steel would only be used for poles over 80′.

Aluminum flagpoles come stock in a silver satin finish, but can be anodized with a protective color coating at an additional cost. Aluminum poles can also be powder-coated in any paint color imaginable

Each of these poles have a wind speed rating. Most poles can with stand 100 mph winds with the flag off

The poles start at 20′ and go up in 5′ increments. We typically recommend going 30′ . The higher the pole is the better chance of the flag flying around.
