Flagpoles in Biloxi

A casino, seafood and tourism city strung along a narrow peninsula, with Keesler Air Force Base holding a large piece of the middle of it. We cover Biloxi and the Harrison County area, including the Biloxi Lighthouse, Point Cadet, the Vieux Marche and downtown, Beauvoir, the Ohr-O'Keefe Museum of Art, Keesler Air Force Base, the Small Craft Harbor, the beachfront and Back Bay casinos, the Biloxi Bay Bridge, Popp's Ferry Road, Edgewater and Woolmarket.

Wind here. Biloxi sits in an open Gulf peninsula area, which works out to roughly 155 mph under the code your town uses. That figure decides how wide and how thick the pole has to be, so we check it against your address before we quote. Biloxi is a peninsula with the Mississippi Sound on one side and Back Bay on the other, so there is no sheltered half of town: a pole out on Popp's Ferry stands in open air the same way one on the beach does. The design figure is about 155 mph, above the top of what Eder publishes for a pole flying a flag, so the shaft, the footing and the flag size are worked out together for the address and no stock pole is presented as meeting the code. Katrina is still the measure people use here, and Point Cadet at the east end took the worst of it, which is why nobody on this peninsula wants a figure that cannot be stood behind. Salt arrives off the water on both sides, so anodized shafts and stainless or bronze hardware are priced in from the start.

Most of the people who call us from Biloxi are casinos and hotels, seafood and marina operations, Air Force contractors, condominium and homeowners associations, restaurants, churches, schools, museums and city buildings.
