Flagpoles in Naples

High-value Gulf-front residential, clubs and retail, still carrying storm work from Irma and Ian. We cover Naples and the Collier County area, including Fifth Avenue South and Third Street South, Old Naples, Park Shore, Pelican Bay, Vanderbilt Beach, North Naples, Golden Gate and the Marco Island approaches.

Wind here. Naples sits in a southwest Gulf coast area, which works out to roughly 165 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. Naples faces open Gulf with nothing in front of it, so beach and bay frontage is treated as fully exposed, and the design wind speed here is above the highest flag-flying rating Eder publishes. The pole and the foundation are engineered for the address rather than picked off a chart. Collier is not in the High Velocity Hurricane Zone, so the product approval route is the state one, but the wind figure is in the same territory as the two counties that are. Irma and Ian both did their work here, and a good deal of what we replace in Naples is hardware that survived the wind and then failed from salt in the years afterwards. Ground is sand over limestone, which usually augers well and then turns into rock work without much warning.

Most of the people who call us from Naples are private clubs and gated communities, hotels and resorts, retail and restaurant frontage, medical offices, churches, municipal buildings and high-end residential.
