Things to avoid while installing the flagpole

Flagpoles are used to raise or lower the flying flags for easily flying of flags with easy installation whether it is the largest flagpole or smallest. For this, there are some things which have to be avoided for enjoying the smooth and proper project. We all go ahead with selecting the tallest flagpole for which you have to consider some points to be taken care of.

Location

The most common mistake everyone does is placing the flagpole in the area which is in contact with automobiles, lawns, vehicles, bicycles or other objects which may run into the flagpoles. Also, see to it that you do not place the tallest flagpole in the power lines area with checking with municipal-corporation before digging ground carefully in such a way that it does not damage the pipes buried underground.

Slopy areas

Do not leave your flagpole on the ground when you buy it or get its delivery. Raise it or locate it as soon as you can avoiding the flagpole lying on the ground. Don’t keep it flat on the ground, keep it in standing position with the largest flagpole till installing the flagpoles. 

Hole size

Do not dig a hole so small for your flagpole as it must be four-time bigger than the pole’s diameter with high depth in such a way that the flagpole ground base gets touch with the surface tightly and firmly. Don’t use sand or mud for filling the sleeve, replace it with the rocks. 

Mixed Cement

Restrict the use of ready-made-mixed cement and replace it with regular cement which will get dry automatically on its own. Do not fix the position of the sleeve without ensuring the concrete level filling. Also, do not add very much amount of cement for avoiding the overflow of it.

Extensions

Large and tall flagpoles which are up to 40 feet or above in height with inserting the ground sleeve of a flagpole on the end with avoiding the extension which can be displayed above ground. Make sure you cut it for making it fit and clean, this is the reason for not forcing the extension in the ground.
