What does a telescoping flag pole kit include?

Flags come in various sizes typically measured by the length and height of the flag. Choose a flag that is proportionate to the size of your flagpole. The flag should generally not be longer than the length of the flagpole, and the height should be around half the length of the pole.

Pole

The flagpole's height typically ranges from 20 to 30 feet, but it can vary based on your preferences and local regulations.

Rope and cleat

The rope and cleat are used to hoist and lower the flag. The cleat is attached to the flagpole to secure the rope in place.

Mounting bracket and screws

For ground-mounted flagpoles, the mounting bracket and screws are used to secure the flagpole into the ground. For wall-mounted flagpoles, the bracket and screws are used to attach the flagpole to a wall.

Telescoping mechanism

Flag poles that telescope typically come in multiple sections that are stacked on top of each other. Internal or external locking mechanisms are used to securely hold the pole sections in place.

Optional Accessories

Finial: A decorative topper for the top of the flagpole.

Flag Spreader: Keeps the flag flying freely by preventing it from wrapping around the pole.

Halyard: The rope used to hoist the flag.

Cleats: Devices that secure the halyard in place.

Truck: The metal housing at the top of the flagpole from which the halyard passes.

Ground Socket: A tube or sleeve set in concrete or the ground to hold the flagpole in place.

Wall Mount: A bracket or housing used to attach the flagpole to a wall.
