We'll discuss flag bracket material trade offs and the steps to install a holder on your house. This is an honest unsponsored review. Also discussed is how high to display the flag from a porch or deck.
Here is a similar flag kit to the one used in this video: amzn.to/3NQFroQ
The COSTCO version is a much nicer flag and 6 ft long pole.

Thanks for the video! Went down to Costco and found the flag kit!

[@MakeItorBreakItNow]

Fantastic! It's one of the best flags out there for the price.

[@mrcheoking]

Yes sir I'm about to install now and I bought it at costco too. Thx for the tips

[@MakeItorBreakItNow]

You're welcome. COSTCO has great flags and so far they've all been made in the US.

[@FishVr1]

Nice!

[@MakeItorBreakItNow]

Thanks, I'm really happy with this deal and the mount for sure.

[@MaryBethWilson-d3s]

Thanks for the info! Our column seems to be hallow. Will those screws hold it? Thanks!

[@MakeItorBreakItNow]

Mary Beth, our columns are hollow also and the mounting bracket is holding up find.

[@loquitusofborg]

How do you make sure it does not wrap around the pole? Keeps happening for me... seems the ring on the top does not go around when the flag is turning over, so when the bottom ring does turn but not the top one, the flag wraps.

[@MakeItorBreakItNow]

Interesting, I've not had that problem. If the angle is too steep it could bind. I've installed 6 different brands and not had issues. You could use a toothbrush and clean out anything that migh be binding the groove. Then hit the toothbrush with some silicon spray or plumbers lube and work it into the groove to reduce the friction.

Bought mine... However, got 60 mph straight line winds the first day. Good news, bracket held great. the weak aluminum pole bent at the seam of bracket..

[@MakeItorBreakItNow]

Interesting, I'd take it back and see if they'd give you a new pole and buy some metal conduit.

[@eliupstateny154]

My pole has been making a squeaky noise. Did I screw on the clips too tight?

[@MakeItorBreakItNow]

Maybe. You could sand the inside of the holder, which may help. Mine was a bit rough on the inside until I took the flag pole in and out a couple of times.

[@BristolThePistol]

Wait where did you get your screws?

[@MakeItorBreakItNow]

They came with the kit.

[@MakeItorBreakItNow]

Thanks for pointing this out.

[@willcha8127]

Got mine, but it's going up , upside down . Because

[@MakeItorBreakItNow]

Keep the faith. Most in the US don't sway to the extremes, which should give us all hope.

[@gliver2549]

Had my flag stolen , this exact one from costco, wish there was a anti theft thing we can install

[@MakeItorBreakItNow]

interesting. you could put a chain on the bottom. Or grease the pole. Run a long padlock through the post? Crazy someone would steal your flag. Not cool.

[@gliver2549]

@@MakeItorBreakItNow My dad figured it out he drilled it and put a screw in it, no way they can pull it out. Also got a ring door bell too.

[@quantomic1106]

2:15 Don't let the flag touch the ground!

[@MakeItorBreakItNow]

Copy, thanks, I try really hard to not let that happen...

[@user-lo5rd5vm7h]

כאנהכנההכנהכ😅😮

[@MakeItorBreakItNow]

toda.

[@Riley095]

Outside rocking 3 American flags myself lol

[@MakeItorBreakItNow]

Very patriotic of you. I've traveled all over the world and the US is the best place I've found.
