Single Pole and the Back to Back mounting brackets are fabricated from 1/8" x 2" strap steel with a 3" x 3" square tube welded to the bracket arms, The sq tube has two 3/8" set screws for secure attachment to the steel pole. The 3/8" bolts eliminate the possibility of the bat house sliping down the pole and makes it very easy for you to adjust for the proper direction of the bat house so one unit faces South/Southeast and the other unit faces North/ Northwest.
The back-to-back application gives the two back-to-back bat house installation a wide range of heat temperature for the bats to chose from. We recommend only using a 2 inch schedule 40 steel pipe for the double bat house installation and the large 5 chamber installation.
The Easy-up-Swivel Mounting Bracket makes an awkward and sometimes difficult job easy, when you install it directly over the top of the 2" pipe you have cemented in the ground. It will fit directly over the top of your 1 1/4", 1 1/2" or 2 " steel pipe that you have placed in the ground. Do not use a pipe any smaller then the 2" I.D. pipe for the back to back installations.
The Easy-Up Bracket allows for easy raising and lowering of your bat house so you can make yearly inspections and provide maintenance as may be required. It is constructed from 3"x3"x 3/16" inch tubular steel and precision machined to accommodate the swivel pipe attachment. The Easy-Up Bracket will not fit over a pipe larger than 2" I.D. = 2 3/8" OD All hardware and installation instructions included with the purchase of the bracket. All mounting brackets have a POWDER COAT FINISH on them for the ultimate in protection against the elements.
