How would I mount my bluebird box (house) to this pole? I can't tell from the photo or specs. Thanks!

You can screw the flange shown to the bottom of the bird house. The flange then fits tightly onto the pole. That is how I mounted my bird house. I only used 3 of the 4 pole sections because I drilled a hole in an old stump rather than put a hole in the ground. The pole is a nice heavy weight I am pleased with it and would definitely buy it again.

Hey - it will fit right on top of the pole - there's a hole/indentation in the bottom of the bird feeder and you just place it on top of the pole

The small piece has a little ridge from which to hang a feeder. Looks like it doesn't, but I've had a feeder on it during windstorms and it is quite sturdy.

You need to order the mounting hardware separately - depends what you order. Mine's on a pole.

I mounted mine on a regular pole for bird feeders no problem -- hole on bottom of feeder slid right over the pole .

Needs to hang. I don't see any provision on the bottom for it to be pole mounted.

There is a heavy duty pole solld by Duncraft for Coates Purple Martin houses. It can extend 12 feet high and costs around $120. I suggest you check that out

There should be a small package in the box with a bracket that attaches to the pole and the baffle rest on it. Without that, there is no way to attach it. It fits poles from 3/4 to 1 and 1/4 inches wide. I would recommend at least a 1 inch metal pole. Hope this helps

I got a 1 1/2" galvanized pole about 8' long and a pack of 2 one hole straps (that's what they are called). They look like question marks, the top goes around the pole and the bottom flat part where the screw hole is gets screwed into the back of the house. Tighten the screws and this will hold the house in place. Dig a hole and put the pole in the ground add a little concrete and your done. If you don't understand my unclear directions just go to a hardware store and explain what you want to do and they should be able to help you. Good luck.

Margie, we used the Heritage Mounting Bracket (#7503 Heritage order number). I did see this item on Amazon when we ordered our feeder in December. Can't seem to locate now on site, perhaps customer service can help you. Ours is still in service after 20 years, mounting is attached to a cyclone aluminum fence post. The mounting and post are very reliable as we live in an area receiving periodic high velocity winter winds.

I would build a concrete form (wooden box ) to bring the concrete base for the pole up to the level you need. It would be a good idea to put in a few pieces of rebar to ensure strength.

It depends on which birdhouse you purchased. The one that I was given as a gift already had a mounting plate. I only needed the pole.

We mounted ours on the old satellite mount, which is a little bit bigger than a rake handle. The bolts and screws that you use to mount it are also adjustable so you could likely get away with a bigger or smaller pole, no problem.

That - hmmm - I don't see how. The mechanism that controls the opening and closing of the feeding slots - means that the thing needs to hang, and the outer grid moves up and down. I can't see how it could be mounted on a pole. I would recommend emailing the company with their suggestions.

When I bought my feeder the Ace Hardware where I go it did not have the pole in stock. I went to the Homestead site on the internet and ordered the pole through them. My suggestion is to take the feeder and your pole to a hardware store, Lowe's, Home Depot, etc. and see if they have a cap that would fit so you can mount your feeder on the pole. I don't know where you as in big city or small but a machine shop might also be able to solve your problem. I hope that this helps.

I used a standard clamp with the v end for pole mounting and mounted the clamp vertical. shoot me an e-mail address and I can send you a picture of the clamps mounting the lights, zeke daguv808@gmail.com

It comes with an attachment that you can use. My husband built a pedestal-type pole using a 4x4. He screwed the attachment on to that and the house fits over it securely. Without using the attachment device, the house would accommodate a pole maybe up to 1/2 inch diameter (I'm not at home, so I can't be too precise - might be a little larger). To me it looks like a standard diameter. It goes into the house about 3". I do think using the attachment and securing it on to a wooden base would probably be best. Using a pole alone would be wobbly, I think.

Funny! I tried it a for awhile, it did not work. Went back to it, it did not work. Finally I figured it out. Have you figured it out yet? A couple of things: 1) the pole pulls out to be longer. It should be as tall as you are. 2) it seems like it does not fit in hole. But, you have to push hard. 3) Look at picture on box. The parts will actually end up looking like the picture. (Smile)

Yes, I have mine on a pole. You have to mount a plate on the bottom that don't come with it. I took the one off my old birdfeeder. You can buy the plates at most places that carry birdfeeders. I love my feeder:)
