Facade holder - 2-arm standard

When you need to display two flags representatively on the facade of a building

The facade flag holder with a double-arm design is intended for mounting two flags on the wall or facade of a building. It is most commonly used in city offices, schools, state institutions, corporate headquarters, and administrative buildings, where it is necessary to simultaneously present the national, European, or corporate flag.

The construction consists of a steel base with four mounting holes and two steel arms measuring 170 cm in length. The arms are set at a 45° angle, allowing the flags to naturally stand away from the facade and remain visible even in light winds.

Why corrosion protection is addressed in outdoor holders

Facade holders are exposed year-round to rain, UV radiation, frost, and temperature fluctuations. Therefore, the lifespan is largely influenced by the surface treatment method. The steel structure is protected by a white powder coating that creates a durable protective surface against mechanical wear and weather effects.

An important detail is the galvanization of the inner part of the arms. Corrosion most often occurs inside closed profiles in cheaper solutions because moisture can accumulate there. The combination of zinc protection and powder coating significantly extends the lifespan of the holder in outdoor environments.

Where the double-arm holder is most commonly used

In practice, the double-arm solution is used wherever it is necessary to present more than one identity or affiliation. A common combination is the national flag of the Slovak Republic and the flag of the European Union. Corporate headquarters often combine the national flag with their own corporate flag.

• city and municipal offices,
• state organizations and schools,
• embassies and consular offices,
• administrative buildings,
• manufacturing sites and corporate headquarters,
• hotels and conference centers.

What is more important than the size of the flag when choosing

Many focus primarily on the size of the flag, but in practice, the strength of the anchoring to the substrate is decisive. Facades can be made of concrete, solid brick, hollow materials, or insulated. Larger flags create significant loads during windy weather, which the wind force directly transmits to the anchoring points.

That is why the steel base is equipped with four mounting holes that allow for stable load distribution. For buildings with a contact insulation system, it is recommended to use appropriate spacer anchoring to prevent deformation of the facade.

Delivery options and color customization

The holder is available separately or as a complete set with flags. It is most commonly supplied with the flag of the Slovak Republic, the flag of the European Union, or their combination. It is also possible to add your own advertising or corporate flag according to the provided graphics.

For orders over 10 pieces, the color of the base can be customized according to the RAL color chart. This option is mainly used in development projects, corporate areas, or public buildings where a uniform visual appearance of the exterior is required.

Why companies and institutions invest in sturdy facade holders

The flag is one of the elements that visitors perceive even before entering the building. From the perspective of property management, it is therefore not just an aesthetic accessory but a long-term exterior element that must withstand daily use and weather conditions.

In practice, it is often more advantageous to invest in a robust steel structure with quality surface treatment than to regularly deal with replacing holders damaged by corrosion. Especially for buildings with continuous operation or representative functions, the reliability of the attachment is more important than the initial purchase price.
