i have a powder coated pole & a brass pole. the powder coated is super grippy! the brass is grippy too but powder coated is easier to care for & you can be a little rougher with the surface 😉 i have a stainelss pole too & it is real slippery. i would go for the 45mm if you can, that's gonna be way easier to grip too!

Pole mat…is there a big difference???i have the 5 inch thick mat from them & i love it! i would say go for the 5 inch just because it's safer. i haven't used the 4 inch one so i can't say about the differences. my first pole room was over cement floor (carpet over that) & i couldn't feel any hard floor when i have "crashed" into my 5in crash mat. if you are not poling over cement the 4 inch would probably be fine though. i'm sure they are both great!

I called & asked them & they told me 🙂 they may have changed parts or something since you got yours.
& my eye feels ok now, still looks scratched though. Luckily it’s the white part, that would be some crazy s*+t lol, go blind putting a pole up o_o needless to say I’ve added safety glasses to my shopping list.
& omg I LOVE THIS NEW POLE! It’s so awesome! I love the brass & the height is great too! Seems to be very well made! I didn’t think I could find a better made pole than the ones I already have but I was wrong. This one seems to be even more sturdy, that’s good since the company I was buying from doesn’t make them anymore 🙂 -
Ok. Talked to PS this morning & that top flange has a center part that toggles out & now that I know that, my pole is installed 😀 yay!! I am a bit of an idiot & used sunglasses instead of safety glasses (that’s all I had) & now I have some ceiling partials stuck in my eye 🙁 or maybe my eye is just scratched from it.. Idk but its not fun right now. Happy to have my pole up thought 😀

Thanks! I plan to call them tomorrow & ask what to do. Ill keep y’all posted.
I have another pole so if I need to wait on this one to be cut shorter it’s not really a big deal… I am excited to have it though & can’t wait to use it 🙂 seems like its going to be a really solid pole & I love a brass pole, I have stainless & a powder coated one so it will be nice to have a metal pole again 🙂 -
I have pics of all the pieces in my album “my new platinum stages pole” if anyone can help 🙂 thanks
-
Mine is a solid piece & no way to adjust the height… Either that or I’m an idiot & didn’t notice a way to adjust it. Lol. Ill go take a pic of the ends & the parts I have & put them in my new pole album in like 2 mins. I got it in Friday afternoon & of course ps is closed until Monday.

Does anyone have one of these in a solid piece pole? I just got mine Friday & I’m having trouble installing it. Please help. I have the base plate screwed in & the ceiling marked for the flange but can’t get the pole pushed ove to the ceiling. Any tips would be awesome!!

MemberApril 12, 2013 at 9:22 pm in reply to: Installing a Permanent platinum stages pole helpI’m sure that would work fine but I’m wondering how it can be installed with the base plate screwed in floor. It seems impossible to install it the way the instructions say to. The pole seems really well made, very heavy duty & I can’t wait to use it! Just have to figure out how to installs it properly 1st 🙂
