Can you hang the feeder instead of putting it on a pole???

Yes. It has a rod that hangs up from each end and goes across the top. The top lid also swings up to add food easily. I love it and it is really squirrel proof.

It hangs easily with the included hanging device. My experience with using it either hanging or pole mounted is the necessity of a squirrel baffle to keep those pesky critters from figuring out how to empty the feeder. Good luck.

Absolutely. It comes with a hanging bracket should you choose to hang it instead of pole mount it.
1859281
Yes it comes with a hanger. You can actually see it in the photo attached at the top of the feeder.

It easily hangs from a pole using the included bracket. The only bad part is that the birds like to sit on the bracket and defecate on the lovely blue top of the feeder necessitating cleaning the top of the feeder.

yeah, i hung mine from some custom pipe poles. you oughta see the squirells slide down!
1859284
yes, i believe you can hang it also. it has a handle that you can use to hang it from a tree, or whatever you have. i have mine on the pole with an added extra - a cone to prevent the squirels from climbing up to the feeder. i havent had any problems after i added the cone, but the squirels were able to get to the food by holding on to the pole just below the feeder and using one paw to grab food from the feeder. i dont know if they'd be able to do the same thing from a chain holding it from the top.

Yes. Our pole is shaped like a T and the feeder hangs on one end. It is durable, attractive and the birds love it - especially cardinals.

The red cap on the top of the feeder has a hole that you can run a wire through to hang it in a tree or whatever location you choose to hang the feeder. You can also purchase this hanger from Amazon Perky-Pet 67 12-Inch Metal Hook for Bird Feeders

Yes...the pole kit actually comes with an attachment that screws to the bottom of the feeder allowing it to slide onto the pole.

No you can not put on pole ,it just hangs .These are very good feeders some of the best I have had but if not hung they will fold down .

Mine is on such a pole, although I don't believe anything larger than an inch will work. The feeder certainly will stand on a pole, but you need a baffle below for squirrels.

I'm also using a hook to hang my feeder. You'll need the 'hanger' plus 2 large hair pins (cotter pins) that are supplied with the feeder. To attach the hanger to the assembly, look at the sides of the feeder. Away from the perch, of each side of the feeder, there should be a slot and a hole punched through the side. Insert the loop portion of the hanger through the slot and the stub end of the hanger through the hole. Do this on both sides. Once you have the hanger inserted completely, insert the hair pins through the loop on the hanger, inside the feeder. That's all, folks! I'm also using a hook to hang my feeder.

The picture shows the hook from which it can be hung. There is a hole on the bottom that is designed to slip over a post. Without seeing your railing, it is hard to know how you might mount it, but if it is a wooden railing and you don't mind drilling into it, you could mount the feeder on a dowel round inserted into a hole in the railing.

Hang it anywhere just add a chain or something similiar if you need to extend the length or can't fit the hook around the object you want to hang it on. I hung mine as is on a bird feeder pole.

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.

Hi, Kathryn. There is a 1" hole in the bottom for a pole. The pole would extend through the bottom tray all the way up between the tubes to the top. The hole is not threaded. We hang it from a wire in a tree, but the pole would work fine, I'm sure, and with the pole extending to the top it would be fairly steady and secure. The people who said there's no way to attach a pole apparently did not turn the feeder upside down and actually look at it.

It is basically a hanging type of feeder but if you are mechanically inclined, you could probably modify it to be pole mounted.

You may need a little collar on the pole to keep the feeder from going more than a few inches onto the pole. Otherwise it would be hard to remove for filling.

The feeder is quite heavy when filled so the pole would need to be very strong and secure.

Sorry, but I think it isn't ideal for mounting, it's made to hang (from a tree branch, hook, etc), but the company may have suggestions for you. Their customer service is excellent, and they offer a one year guarantee for their products. It's a great feeder, though.

No. Can be hung from crook pole, wire line etc. your own feeder attaches under the dome, dome hangs from above.

I honestly do not see how. The only thing you could do is hang it from a shepherd's hook. The bottom is just the wire mesh - there would be no place to attach it to a pole.
