Flagpoles in Hillsboro

The seat of Washington County and the centre of Oregon's semiconductor industry, wrapped around a small brick downtown. We cover Hillsboro and the Washington County area, including downtown Hillsboro and the Washington County courthouse, the Ronler Acres and Jones Farm campuses, Orenco Station, Tanasbourne, AmberGlen, the Hillsboro Civic Center, Hillsboro Airport and the US 26 corridor.

Wind here. Hillsboro sits in a flat, open and inland area, which works out to roughly 95 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. Washington County works out near 95 mph, and that number is not the problem here. The Tualatin Valley is flat, and the big campuses stand on open ground with nothing between them and the Coast Range, so that kind of frontage gets sized for exposed terrain rather than off the county figure. Underfoot the valley is silt and clay that drains slowly, and a hole opened between November and March will often stand full of water until it is poured, so winter work is planned around the weather rather than in spite of it. Hillsboro Airport is the second busiest field in Oregon and the largest general-aviation airport in the state, and the FAA has notice rules for tall structures near a runway, so a pole going up close to the approaches gets an airspace check first. Work inside the technology campuses carries its own submittal and scheduling regime, which is usually a longer lead time than the pole itself needs.

Most of the people who call us from Hillsboro are technology and manufacturing campuses, county and city buildings, public and private schools, medical offices, retail centres, community associations and church buildings.
