Flagpole Sizing Guide


What Size Flagpole Do I Need?

The size of grounds and buildings are always important when determining the correct size flagpole for your particular application. Ideally, the pole should be visible from all angles without interference from shrubbery, trees or other obstacles and looks neither too large nor too small for your home. The typical height for residential areas is 20 feet. If your home is two to three stories tall, you may want to consider a 25-foot flagpole. Flagpoles are complimentary with any architectural style. They have elegance that is striking against any residential setting.

Examples of proper sizing:



Pole Sized Height of the Building Flag Size
17' 1 Story 3 x 5 Feet
20' 1 to 2 Story 3 x 5 Feet
25' 2 Story 4 x 6 Feet
30' 3 Story 5 x 8 Feet
35' 4 Story 6 x 10 Feet
