Model 2-5 Mounting systems

Tue Jul 24, 2012 5:54 pm

As some of you may know l am working on my siren pole installation and l want to get a bit more height out of it. Currently it's about 16 feet tall but l want my siren higher still. So l am wondering what kind of brackets are used to mount The Model sirens. Have STH-10 style brackets been used to mount model sirens? Post pics if you can. Thanks!

The Model 2 I saw in Jonesboro, GA back in November was mounted on a circular metal plate attached to an STH-10 style mount. Here is an image of the siren

Here is how I have mine mounted. Pretty much identical to Ian's except for a square plate and a taller pole.

Here's my Federal mount that came with my model 2T.

Unassembled and in primer back when I first got it.

That double 2 setup is pretty neat.

I'm pondering if I ever get a 2 to mount it on the old tv antenna pole that runs up the side of my house.
