Flagpoles in Denver

The state capital and the business centre of the Rocky Mountain west, with a tight downtown and low, wide commercial ground in every direction from it. We cover Denver and the City and County of Denver area, including Union Station and Lower Downtown, the Capitol and Civic Center, RiNo, Cherry Creek, the Highlands, Five Points, Central Park and the Broadway and Colfax corridors.

Wind here. Denver sits in a high-plains urban 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. Denver sizes to about 115 mph, the gentle end of the Front Range and a surprise to anyone who has stood outside here in March. The money goes into the ground instead. The claystone under the Denver basin swells when it is wetted and shrinks when it dries, and the Colorado Geological Survey puts swelling soil ahead of every other geologic hazard in the state for the damage it does, so a footing here goes deeper than the wind load alone would ask and the grade around it is worked out at the same time. Height is worth checking before you order: Denver's mountain view plane ordinances cap how tall anything may stand inside defined areas around certain parks and public places. Downtown blocks also channel wind between towers in a way no adopted figure shows, and a good many core addresses stand on a deck over parking, which turns the footing into a piece of design work. Hail is the other Denver constant, and it costs you the flag rather than the pole.

Most of the people who call us from Denver are offices and hotels downtown, hospitals and clinics, law and finance firms, school buildings, churches, veterans posts, breweries and dealership frontage along the commercial corridors.
