i am ready for all the stupid answers!!!

I know its a silly question, but im trying to visualise how high it is for a new pole purchase. how high for example is gutter level on a council house?

[Richard 01903]

If you think a door is 6foot 6 ,So each floor is approx 10 foot :
As a rough guide

[andyM]

360 inches or
9 metres or
900 centimetres or
9000 millimetres

bloody high on  a ladder

a 30ft pole will reach grd, 1st, 2nd & 3rd floor windows of a standard new build type block of flats.

thanks all!

one foot more than 29ft

I use a SLX30 all day every day and that allows me to reach grnd, 1st n 2nd floor windows. The 2nd floor windows I do sometimes have a balcony in front and with a set of steps, I can still reach

Easy reach normal 2nd floor windows though mate

Hi Jeff,

Stupid question, but how can you get a 30' pole out of an 11m Gangster? If you can, then the top sections must be the right size to support a brush.

We used the Ron Thompson 8m putover pole and by the time you throw away the top smallest sections we were left with an 18' approx pole.

Thanks

Of course your right Spruce I am getting mixed up with reach height and appologise, been in the yard and re-measured and I get 25ft actual out of the 11m gangster.
But if you fit the 4rth and 3rd section of the Zensor onto the 4rth Gangster you can stretch another 3ft out of it.

In extreme/temporary conditions you can also intermingle the Zensor with the gangster in a couple of places, for instance the no 6 section Zensor will fit onto the last section of the gangster which will give you an extra 18" or something like that.
Or G7a onto 7Z, onto G8 then Z8 into the base of the RT G8, gives you an extra 4ft ( I think if memory serves right I got total  the combination to 32ft actual   more fun than stretch a Harris. But over 30ft and I suggest a 16m c/f pole like a Maver/Daiwa/Map as they are really stiff in comparison.

If you just want tips for brushes to fit any c/f modular or a ground floor short reach then the 5m gangster is cheap.

Hi Jeff,

thanks for taking the trouble to measure that, it is most appreciative. To extend the height of my zenoflex I ordered a second unit and used the bottom 2 sections in the base of the original, but made a fiberglass sleeve as a spacer.
My son Cameron used to use the fishing pole on the end of his Unger Teleplus pole with the top 2 sections spaced enough apart to give adequate support on one job he know longer does, but now finds his SLX25 covers all his work bar 1 which I use my SLX40 to do for him.

But there is the possibility of a need for a longer pole on a block of flats a friend of ours is going to do and this Gangster may just be the answer at 25' plus his reach.

Thanks
