This guide provides a step-by-step guide on how to install a flagpole on your property. It covers the process of choosing a suitable flagpole and location, digging a foundation for the foundation sleeve, installing the lower part of the flagpole, attaching everything to the upper flagpole, and finally hoisting the flag. The guide is designed for intermediate DIYers and offers tips on how to ensure the flagpole is correctly installed and secured, ready for display and use.
To begin, choose a suitable location for your flagpole and ensure it is safe to dig there. Dig a hole about 4 feet deep and three times the diameter of the flagpole, making sure the hole is slightly deep. Next, unscrew a plastic screw from the EZ-Mount ring and slide the ring onto the flagpole. Thread the screw through the flag’s grommets and screw back into the EZ-Mount ring.
The process of installing a flagpole requires careful planning and preparation, including gathering the proper tools and materials, using a level to ensure straightness and alignment, and having someone assist you during the installation process. If you encounter any difficulties or have questions during the installation process, don’t hesitate to contact the manufacturer for assistance.
In conclusion, this guide provides a comprehensive guide on how to install a flagpole on your property, providing tips and guidance for both beginners and experienced DIYers.

I just ordered a Service First freedom edition flag pole to honor my father that was a Marine that passed a few years ago and my son that was in the Army National Guard for over 15 years working towards a full career until he was killed in 2021. I already have experience with installing fence post and Purple Martin bird house poles but I wanted to make sure I do it right. I put bricks under the Purple Martin pole sleeves to give them a solid base. Your article was more informative than some of the other flag pole installation articles I’ve seen. Well done.
I bought a flag pole off Amazon and it was a five piece 25 footer and I’m already regretting it. When the wind picks up it really leans to one side and after the wind stops it straightens back up……BUT it’s done this so much over the last month that the pole leans to one side now, you can see it good when you stand away from it. I wonder if there’s a way I can put some shims in the pole to fix it?

Great article, guys! I’m installing a 25ft pole on my property and this article is, and will be very helpful. Also, I have a thick clay in the desired location that is filled with maple tree roots, which is about as fun to dig out as your ground. I’ve found a pick axe works WAY better to dig through and break that shit up than a spade. Break it up with the pick and scoop it out with a spade or square shovel.
1. Display the U.S. flag from sunrise to sunset on buildings and stationary flagstaffs in the open. When a patriotic effect is desired the flag may be displayed 24-hours a day if properly illuminated during the hours of darkness. 2.

Mike, the picture of that flag flying outside your desert home brought tears to my eyes. We don’t see enough Old Glories flying here in California. There were more flying back in our home state of Oklahoma, huh. We also don’t see enough dads and sons working together these days. BTW: Dad looks a lot like you and what a pair of guns! Thanks for sharing this one, Mike. I loved it.
