Instead of using an anchor base and bolt circle, this pole is set directly into the ground (with embedment\/backfill and\/or concrete per local practice), making it a practical choice for projects that want a clean look and simplified foundation work—especially for smaller site lighting where an anchor base isn’t required.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mb-1 mt-2 whitespace-pre-line leading-relaxed first:mt-0\" data-sentry-component=\"P\" data-sentry-source-file=\"p.tsx\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mb-1 mt-2 whitespace-pre-line leading-relaxed first:mt-0\" data-sentry-component=\"P\" data-sentry-source-file=\"p.tsx\"\u003eAt \u003cstrong\u003e18' mounting height\u003c\/strong\u003e, this pole moves into a more typical \u003cstrong\u003esmall site \/ light parking\u003c\/strong\u003e height range, where additional mounting height can improve spacing and uniformity for drive lanes, perimeter lighting, and compact parking areas. The \u003cstrong\u003e5\" square shaft\u003c\/strong\u003e provides a larger section than 4\" square poles, which is often helpful when fixture\/bracket loads or wind exposure increase.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mb-1 mt-2 whitespace-pre-line leading-relaxed first:mt-0\" data-sentry-component=\"P\" data-sentry-source-file=\"p.tsx\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mb-1 mt-2 whitespace-pre-line leading-relaxed first:mt-0\" data-sentry-component=\"P\" data-sentry-source-file=\"p.tsx\"\u003eBecause this is a direct burial pole, the \u003cstrong\u003eoverall length is longer than the mounting height\u003c\/strong\u003e to provide the below-grade embedment needed for stability. This model has a \u003cstrong\u003e22' overall length\u003c\/strong\u003e, allowing for typical installation depth while maintaining the specified mounting height above grade. For wind-load planning, it is rated at \u003cstrong\u003e2.9 EPA @ 120 mph\u003c\/strong\u003e—confirm the combined projected area of the luminaire, bracket\/arm, and any accessories stays within the pole’s EPA rating and verify embedment depth and soil conditions per local requirements.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"American Lighting Systems","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45604918952038,"sku":"ALS-ASQS-5183-DB","price":1399.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2058\/6641\/files\/18Ft.png?v=1780517355","url":"https:\/\/americanlightingsystems.com\/products\/18-foot-aluminum-square-straight-direct-burial-4in-188-thickness","provider":"American Lighting Systems","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
