Flagpoles in Canton

A manufacturing town of long low plants and wide highway frontage, with a football museum that brings the country to it for a week every summer. We cover Canton and the Stark County area, including the Pro Football Hall of Fame and Hall of Fame Village, the McKinley National Memorial and the presidential library, the downtown Canton Arts District, Belden Village, the Timken plants, Malone University and the Stark State campus at North Canton.

Wind here. Canton sits in an inland and unsheltered area, which works out to roughly 115 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. Canton is a question of scale rather than of code. Hundred-yard plants, deep car parks and highway frontage set a long way back from the road leave a pole doing the whole vertical job on its own, so a short one simply disappears. The other Canton question is how hard the pole gets worked. Enshrinement week fills the city with flags every summer, and on a pole raised, lowered and half-staffed that often the hardware earns its keep faster than another five feet of shaft would: the rope hidden inside the pole behind a locking access door, a stainless truck and pulley at the top, and a geared winch instead of an open cleat. Stark County sits on glacial till over sandstone and shale, workable enough that most Canton holes are ordinary ones.

Most of the people who call us from Canton are manufacturers and distribution operators, American Legion and VFW posts, school districts and colleges, city and county buildings, churches, medical offices and highway commercial frontage.
