The Pole Base-ics

Short on time? Here are this article’s key takeaways…

Ordering Pole Base with your local manufacturer is a straightforward process.

When placing a Pole Base order, you’ll need to provide details such as base sizing, quantity of bases, project location, and a timeline for delivery.

Electrical contractors tasked with the concrete construction of light pole bases for site lighting projects will enjoy relying on Pole Base producers to supply precast light pole bases, freeing up their time to focus on other efforts.

Opting for precast bases requires far fewer steps in the production process than with traditional cast-in-place bases, and your crews will enjoy not having to mess around with concrete on the job site.

We know it’s not the most exciting product, but it’s one that site work and electrical contractors often encounter in the early phases of a construction project. It can either be a pain in the neck to install or a simple solution, and it all comes down to how the product is produced. We’re talking about concrete light pole bases, and not just any light pole bases, but our time-saving, aesthetically pleasing precast pole bases. That’s a lot of talk, talk, right? How about we walk the walk and break down the process of getting Pole Base for your next project?

How do I order Pole Base?

Getting Pole Base for your site lighting project is simple. First, you’ll want to locate your nearest manufacturer by filling out our Get a Quote form or calling the Pole Base team at +1 844-866-9097. Completing either of these steps will give you the contact information you need to begin placing an order.

When you contact your local manufacturer, have the following information handy:

  • Provide an engineer’s detail of the light pole bases required for your project, including Pole Base width, length, shape, conduit, rebar, and bolt pattern information. Provide specific sizing and accessory specifications if you don't have an engineer's detail handy.
  • Calculate the number of bases required for your project and be ready to provide this number.
  • Share the location of your project for delivery purposes and shipping price calculations.
  • Determine a timeframe for delivery and provide this to your manufacturer.

Next, it’s up to the Pole Base manufacturer to craft your precast light pole bases to your project specifications and prepare them to ship directly to your job site. For you and your crew, there is no messing around with liquid concrete, cardboard tubes, or rebar cages on the job site, which means less time spent trying to schedule labor over the course of a week or more to install cast-in-place bases.

If you happen to be an electrical contractor who is tasked with installing concrete light pole bases, you can easily make the argument that while the lights atop the bases are your cup of tea, installing and forming the actual concrete itself on the job site may not be such a walk in the park. Outsourcing this work to a precast Pole Base manufacturer is the best way to leave the concrete to the pros, and free your team up to focus on the lighting. Pole Base’s simple ordering process has made it easier to “work smarter, not harder.” Ahh, convenience. Doesn’t it taste sweet?
