When you’re thinking about investing in a flag and flagpole, there are two obvious things that you know you’ll need -- the flag and flagpole, right? However, there are also plenty of other products that you might not have thought about that can help elevate the aesthetic, prolong the longevity of your products, and make maintaining your flag a breeze. Take a look at some of our favorite products that'll have you flying to your shopping cart!

1.The Flag Sentinel

This product is a great solution to keep your flag from tangling around its mast and allows your flag to fly beautifully and visibly. It’s extremely simple to install and fits any standard household flagpole. Now your flag can fly all day long without the frustration of the flag becoming tangled or damaged!

Pro Tip: The Flag Sentinel is a great option if you already have a residential flagpole set up. It can be added to any mounted flagpole.

2.Spinning Poles

Another great product we offer is the Spinning Pole. Unlike standard flagpoles, our Deluxe Spinning House Flagpole Set allows the pole to spin freely, which prevents flags from wrapping around the pole and flies naturally.

Additionally, it’s important to note that flags on these poles cannot be lowered to half staff, but we offer mourning ribbons as an alternative.Our black mourning ribbon is the perfect way to show your respect during times of mourning. If you cannot lower your flag to half staff, flying one of these ribbons alongside your flag is the proper thing to do.

3.Flagpole Downlight

Solar Downlight

Take the hassle out of flagpole lighting! According to the flag code, a flag that is flown after sundown must be properly lit throughout the night and our solar light is the perfect solution! This budget-friendly accessory automatically lights your flag with ease each night. Our solar light is an environment-friendly green product that provides brighter and wider lighting coverage for your flag. When the sensor captures the maximum amount of daylight, you can expect about twelve hours of light.

StarGazer Downlight

The best flagpole lighting option is our patented top down light, the StarGazer. The StarGazer is built to be durable, Dark Sky compliant, and keeps your flag beautifully lit throughout the night. A little added bonus, this top down technology also lights the surrounding walkways for bypassers! The StarGazer is designed for both residential and commercial installation, and the best part is, whether you’re installing a brand new pole, or just want to update your current light source, the StarGazer is always an option.
