How to Install an Aluminum Flag Pole
- 1). Put on gloves and dig a hole between 18 and 24 inches deep and just as wide with post hole diggers.
- 2). Combine 1 part mortar with 3 parts masonry sand in a wheelbarrow, and mix together with a hoe. Moisten with water using a garden hose, continuously mixing with the hoe.
- 3). Set the flag pole into the hole. Have a friend or family member hold the aluminum flag pole steady while you pour the wet concrete into the hole, filling it completely.
- 4). Let the concrete dry overnight, then raise your flag(s) as desired.
