Security Camera Poles

What Are Security Camera Poles?

Security camera poles provide elevation and stability for surveillance systems on commercial and residential properties. Our poles eliminate sight-line obstructions and offer a 10-60 foot height range for broad coverage. With 15+ years of security lighting experience, we supply poles that withstand harsh weather and support multiple cameras and LED fixtures. Choose from wood, steel, or fiberglass to match your environment and budget.

Types of Security Camera Poles

• Composite security camera poles
• Steel security camera poles
• Wood security camera poles

Choosing the Proper Pole for Your Security Camera

Camera weight and wind exposure set your minimum pole requirements. Most PTZ cameras need 6-inch diameter poles for stability, while fixed cameras may use 4-inch models, depending on specifications. Coastal sites require fiberglass or specially-coated steel for salt air. Soil conditions should be checked by a licensed professional, as sandy ground may need deeper burial and results vary by location.

Wood poles can cost 40% less than steel and perform well in protected areas, making them a good choice for budget projects.

LED Security System Pole Materials

• Fiberglass Poles: Maintenance-free with natural resistance to rot, rust, and fire. Lightweight construction reduces foundation needs.
• Steel Poles: Maximum strength for heavy camera loads and harsh weather. 3000 PSI wind resistance when properly engineered.
• Wood Poles: Cost-effective with natural aesthetics and proven durability. Class 1 pressure treatment offers decades of service when maintained.

Top Features of LED Lighting Supply's Security Camera Pole

Material selection is key to pole performance. Steel poles use hot-dip galvanizing to prevent rust for 50+ years, while fiberglass models resist corrosion without coatings. Square and round profiles fit different mounting hardware, with 4-inch to 8-inch diameters supporting single or multiple cameras, depending on the model.

Weather-resistant powder coating adds protection, and pre-drilled mounting holes speed up installation.

LED Camera Pole Accessories and Mounting Options

Professional camera mounting uses hardware designed for outdoor exposure. Our stainless steel brackets resist corrosion and allow 360-degree rotation for precise camera positioning. Vibration dampening systems reduce wind-induced movement that can blur footage.

Weather-resistant junction boxes protect electrical connections, and integrated cable management keeps installations clean and code-compliant. Wall-mount and freestanding options fit any site without sacrificing stability.

LED Security Camera Pole Customizations

• Height: Standard inventory covers 10-60 feet, with custom heights available for special needs
• Camera Mounting Pole Options: Square and round profiles in various materials optimize load capacity and appearance
• CCTV Pole Accessories: Pre-engineered mounting arms and brackets reduce field modifications and installation delays
• Lead Time: Most custom configurations ship within 2-3 weeks of order confirmation
• Surveillance Camera Poles' Location: Site-specific engineering considers wind loads, soil, and local codes

Installation Method Categories

• Anchor-Based Poles: Concrete foundations with galvanized anchor bolts create permanent installations for heavy camera loads. Ideal for high-security applications needing maximum stability.
• Direct Burial Poles: Ground-set installation lowers labor costs by removing the need for concrete. Wood poles are well-suited here, with pressure-treated bases rated for decades underground when installed properly.

Installation and Maintenance Considerations

Foundation design is critical for long-term stability and should account for frost lines and soil bearing capacity. A licensed professional should verify anchor bolt torque during setup to prevent loosening. Plan access for ongoing maintenance, especially for taller poles that may require bucket trucks for service.

Monthly visual inspections help catch issues early. Use our free pole foundation area calculator to determine concrete requirements for your installation.

Benefits of LED Lighting Supply's Camera Poles

Our camera poles provide stable mounting platforms that prevent vibration issues common in surveillance systems. Wind-resistant engineering helps cameras maintain focus during storms, and corrosion-resistant materials protect your investment when installed correctly. We recommend our poles for customers experiencing unstable installations or frequent equipment failures. The modular design allows for future camera upgrades without full pole replacement, reducing long-term costs.
