Know before you buy
The 11.5-inch trident base should be pushed completely into the soil until the horizontal crossbar is flush with the ground. This ensures the hook remains upright and stable, especially when supporting heavier items near the 25-pound limit.
While the trident base provides excellent stability in standard garden soil, it may struggle in loose sand or overly soft, waterlogged ground. If your soil is very loose, you may need to pack the dirt firmly around the base or use a concrete anchor for added security.
The hooks feature a weather-resistant finish designed to withstand the elements. While the steel is durable, we recommend inspecting the hooks annually for any scratches or chips in the coating, as exposed metal can eventually develop surface rust if left untreated.
Each hook provides a 12-inch clearance from the main shaft to the center of the hook. This distance is sufficient to keep bird feeders or lanterns from bumping against the pole while they sway in the wind.
At 7'4" tall, these hooks offer significant vertical height. While they provide a great vantage point for birds, please note that squirrels are agile climbers; you may still need to add a baffle to the pole if you are trying to deter persistent wildlife.
