Made from 6063 T6 marine-grade aluminium — the same alloy used in marine and coastal architecture — powder coated pearl white with a heavy-duty galvanised steel spigot and ground sleeve. Available in six heights from 6m to 12m, in external or internal halyard configuration, with or without a construction cage for concreting.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:15px; line-height:1.8; color:#1a1a1a; margin:0 0 20px 0; font-weight:300;\"\u003e\n  The two-piece sleeved design means the pole ships in manageable sections and installs without a crane — the HD galvanised steel spigot joins the two sections and the ground sleeve anchors the system into the concrete footing. Choose external halyard for straightforward residential and club installations, or internal halyard for a cleaner finish and secure lockable rope access — the standard for government buildings, councils, and high-visibility commercial premises.

Poles above 8m, or poles installed on commercial or public land, may require a planning permit or development approval depending on your local council's requirements. Always check with your local council before purchasing a pole 8.5m or above.

A confident DIYer or handyperson can complete the installation — the process involves digging a hole, setting the HD galvanised steel ground sleeve in concrete, allowing it to cure, and then assembling and dropping the two pole sections into the sleeve. The construction cage add-on assists with keeping the sleeve correctly positioned during the concrete pour. If you're unsure, a local concreter or handyperson can complete the installation in a few hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n      \u003cdiv style=\"padding:14px 0; border-bottom:0.5px solid #e8e8e8;\"\u003e\n        \u003cp style=\"font-size:14px; font-weight:600; color:#1a1a1a; margin:0 0 6px 0;\"\u003eWhat is the construction cage for?\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cp style=\"font-size:13px; color:#1a1a1a; line-height:1.7; font-weight:300; margin:0;\"\u003eThe construction cage is a steel cage that surrounds the HD galvanised steel ground sleeve during the concrete pour — keeping it correctly positioned and plumb while the concrete sets. Without it, the sleeve can shift slightly during pouring. Most professional installers use a cage. DIY installers should also select the cage option to ensure the sleeve is correctly positioned. It's a one-time installation aid — not a permanent component.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n      \u003cdiv style=\"padding:14px 0; border-bottom:0.5px solid #e8e8e8;\"\u003e\n        \u003cp style=\"font-size:14px; font-weight:600; color:#1a1a1a; margin:0 0 6px 0;\"\u003eHow deep does the concrete footing need to be?\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cp style=\"font-size:13px; color:#1a1a1a; line-height:1.7; font-weight:300; margin:0;\"\u003eFooting depth depends on the pole height and local soil conditions. As a general guide, the footing depth should be approximately 10% of the pole height — so a 6m pole requires approximately 600mm depth, a 9m pole approximately 900mm. Your local installer or engineer can confirm the correct footing specification for your site and soil type. Contact us for a formal engineering specification if required for a council DA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n      \u003cdiv style=\"padding:14px 0; border-bottom:0.5px solid #e8e8e8;\"\u003e\n        \u003cp style=\"font-size:14px; font-weight:600; color:#1a1a1a; margin:0 0 6px 0;\"\u003eWhat size flag do I need for my pole?\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cp style=\"font-size:13px; color:#1a1a1a; line-height:1.7; font-weight:300; margin:0;\"\u003eAs a general rule, the flag length should be approximately 25–30% of the pole height. For a 6m pole, a flag of approximately 1.5–1.8m length is appropriate. For a 9m pole, approximately 2.25–2.7m. Using a flag that's too small looks lost on a tall pole — using one that's too large puts excess wind load on the pole and halyard.
