Flag Bases and Ground Spikes

Stand the base where the flag will go, fill it with water through the cap, and screw the cap back on tight before you fit the pole. A full base is heavy, so fill it in place rather than carrying it full. Empty it before you move it or store it, and in freezing weather, so it does not crack. Flag Bases and Ground Spikes start at £42.70 before delivery.

You can choose large cross base, small water base, Budget Ground spike, drive on car base, large water base, none, concrete base, Standard Ground spike or small square base. Ground spikes push into grass or soft ground; cross, square and water bases stand on hard ground, with water bases filled for weight; a drive-on car base sits under a vehicle wheel; a concrete base is the heaviest option. Each choice changes the price live in the calculator, so you can compare before you add to basket. Flag Bases and Ground Spikes are made to order by our UK production partner.

It is a flat plate with a pole socket. Park so that a wheel sits on the plate and the weight of the car holds the flag upright. It suits car dealers, forecourts and events where you park next to your pitch. Leave room for the flag to turn in the wind without touching the car. Flag Bases and Ground Spikes are Base only (no flag).
