Mourning flags with carabiners

Mourning flag with carabiners – easy attachment to the pole without unnecessary handling

The mourning flag with carabiners is the most straightforward solution for poles with a rope system. It is used in practice where quick flag changes and stable attachment without threading through a tunnel are important.

The carabiners are attached to the long side and connect directly to the pole's rope mechanism. This method is standard in public buildings and places where flags are changed according to events or protocol.

How carabiner attachment works in real conditions

Carabiners allow the flag to be easily hung and detached without dismantling the entire structure. In practice, this means that changing the flag takes a few minutes and there is no need to handle the top part of the pole.

An important factor is the even distribution of tension. With proper tensioning, the flag maintains its shape and does not twist around its axis, which is crucial for its readability and aesthetic impression.

Available sizes of the mourning flag with carabiners

The choice of size depends on the height of the pole and the distance from which the flag is observed. In practice, smaller formats are used in enclosed spaces, while larger ones are used in open areas.

• 60 × 90 cm
• 100 × 150 cm
• 150 × 225 cm
• 150 × 300 cm
• 150 × 400 cm

The most commonly used format is 100 × 150 cm, as it balances visibility and stability even with medium-height poles.

Behavior of the flag in the wind and practical differences

The carabiner attachment transmits the entire movement of the wind directly to the pole system. In practice, this means that the quality of tension determines whether the flag rotates or remains stable.

For larger formats, it is important to regularly check the tension, as long-term loosening can lead to uneven wear on the upper corners.

Material and construction from the perspective of long-term operation

The flag is made using dispersion printing, which ensures even color coverage across the entire surface. This method is particularly important for mourning motifs, where dark areas are involved.

Double stitching around the edges reinforces the areas that are most stressed at the points of carabiner attachment. In practice, this is a critical point for the lifespan of the entire flag.

When the carabiner system makes the most sense

The carabiner attachment is used where quick changes are needed or where the pole already has a prepared rope mechanism. It is the most widespread system in local governments and public institutions.

• city and municipal poles
• public institutions and schools
• corporate entrances with a rope pole
• protocol and mourning events
