Telescoping Flagpoles
Written by Liza Hartung
Do you find it annoying when you have to raise and lower your American flag every day only to have all your ropes get tangled in knots? What about dealing with chains? Do they hurt your hands, or are they too heavy? Can you imagine not having to deal with any of these problems again? Telescoping flagpoles make this dream a reality. They're slowly making traditional flagpoles obsolete.
These poles are great for residential areas, marinas, schools, and corporations, anywhere a flag needs to fly. These flagpoles are exactly what they sound like. They extend like telescopes. There are different sections, each one a little smaller in diameter so that they can contract into each other. In addition, each section locks and releases just by touching a button, making it easy to change flags.
With telescoping flagpoles you don't have to hassle with ropes, chains or pulleys. You can get them in aluminum and fiberglass. If you like to show team spirit, you might want to think about purchasing a tailgating telescoping flagpole. This is a flagpole that you can contract to fit in your car. There is a wheel at the bottom so you can roll it out a tailgate parties and hang your pride high on the pole.
Many Flagpoles in One Spot
Telescoping flags are also a great idea when you have a whole bunch of flagpoles in one place. With regular flagpoles, one good gust of wind can make for a lot of noise when chains and ropes start slapping against aluminum poles. Telescoping poles are virtually noise-free. You can even order from the Internet and never leave your house.
