Tony,

Yes they do although there is a section at the bottom of each internal pole to indicate where to safely extend the section.

This is acheivable because of the 360 degree clamps.

A carbon facelift, but i only use it at full length once a month, upto 35ft it is excellent, upto 24ft unbeatable, but if i was doing work regularly at 40ft+ i think i would have to invest in a super-lite, below this IMO telescopic with removable sections more than out-weighs the weight saving of a modular.

Peterf,

The only reason i am keeping certain things quite is for the official launch of the pole with full data sheets and colour brochure, which have all the details on including materials used to manufacture the poles / goosenecks etc.

I think you can understand our reasons.

How does your pole compare to carbon facelift, i don't expect you to say not as good (unless it's half the price) but - as good, better, way,way better, any wee hint will do :D

No problem Stuart, 

I just wanted to know what the gooseneck was made of, but I suppose you already answered that before I asked the question.

Tony,

Sorry for the delay in my opinion ive tried to build with the help of a couple of specialists in there chosen fields a great window cleaning pole and yes i have in my eyes and with a lot of help from my guinea pigs (testers) a leader in the wfp market,

The price will be released shortly after a couple of details have to be ironed out, i know it will beat the so called leading poles on that department and i can only hope that the end user will agree.

hope that helps,

i hope you are right stuart and wish you all the best, i hope to be one of your customers.
i currentley view facelift as the market leader ( in it's field ) as i don't view modular poles as being in the same catagory.

good luck

Tony, modular poles will and do work however they are by no way as quick as using telescopic poles,

I think that the modular poles downfall is the reseting the height much easier if you have a telescopic pole.

thats why i chose to build the pole based on the telescopic method.
