Installation
How long does installation take?
Most homeowners complete the installation in 30-45 minutes. The hardest part is cementing the ground sleeve. The flagpole itself simply slides into the sleeve—no tools required.
Do I need professional help?
No! Our kits are designed for DIY installation. We include step-by-step instructions and the ground sleeve with every kit. However, we do have a network of professional installers if you'd prefer help.
What type of concrete do I need?
We recommend using 2-3 bags (80 lb each) of standard quick-set concrete mix. The ground sleeve is placed in a hole approximately 24" deep and 10" wide.
Can I install on a deck or patio?
Yes! We offer wall and dock mounts for hard surface installations. Our Hitch Mount is also perfect for RVs and tailgating.
Wind & Weather
What is the wind rating?
Every Phoenix Flagpole is independently tested and rated to withstand sustained winds of 100 MPH. This covers the vast majority of severe weather events including most tropical storms.
Should I take it down during storms?
The Phoenix is designed to stay up in most storms. However, in the event of Category 3+ hurricanes or tornadoes, we recommend collapsing the pole down. This takes about 30 seconds.
Will it rust?
Never. Our poles are made from 6061-T6 aerospace-grade aluminum with an anodized finish. They are completely rust-proof, even in saltwater coastal environments.
Can I fly it at night?
US Flag Code requires illumination if displayed at night. Our solar lights solve this automatically with dusk-to-dawn sensors—no wiring required.
Warranty & Support
What does the warranty cover?
Our Forever Warranty covers all manufacturing defects on the flagpole structure for the life of the original purchaser. This includes the pole sections, locking mechanism, and ground sleeve.
How do I file a warranty claim?
Simply contact us at (518) 400-0765 or email support. We'll typically ship replacement parts within 1-2 business days at no cost to you.
Are flags covered under warranty?
Flags are consumable items and are not covered under our Forever Warranty. However, our premium nylon flags are designed to last 6-12 months in typical conditions. We offer replacement flags at great prices.
What about the solar lights?
Solar lights carry a 2-year warranty. The rechargeable batteries may need replacement after 2-3 years depending on usage. We sell affordable replacement batteries.
