Installation & Base Options.
All flagpole installations should be engineered to comply to the specific site requirements on a project basis. Windloads, soil conditions and flag sizes will all imapct on the choice of flagpole or banner pole selected.

Bases:
Spear Base: Used for small flagpoles (up to 6.0mtr) that are installed on a temporary basis for use at exhibitions, field days etc. In severe windloads or excessive size flags the use of a spear footing may be limited.
Hinged Base: A hinged base allows for the ease of lowering the flagpole to ground level without having to remove it completely from its footing. Usually a standard feature on 'Rota-Arm' banner poles where ropes are not used. It allows for ease of flag/banner changeover and repair without the need for use of reach trucks.
