The Tuff-Pole Advantage

Embedded good looks
Standard, special, and premium colors are available, including architectural colors, and any color can be matched. See Colors. The poles are coated with a custom formulated, proprietary, polyurethane containing UV inhibitors to help prevent fading over time. Shakespeare Composite Structures engineers have designed UV inhibitors into both the resin and the polyurethane finish.

Direct Burial Efficiency
Shakespeare Composite Structures Direct Burial decorative light poles mount directly into the ground. Constructed of the same composite which forms the rest of the pole, our anti-rotation burial foot is designed for stability and longevity. You can use the Composite Burial Foot to quickly and inexpensively install most Shakespeare Composite Stuctures Anchor Base poles as though they were direct burial style.
