The ACA Alertronic AR-1600 by Schooley lodge on camp tesomas property is very low mounted. The top of the siren is parallel to the roof.

That siren actually just got a new pole earlier this week according to Josh S; It is no longer as low. Also from what I hear electrical/controller upgrades/repairs are planned to happen in March.

my friend meow will be happy because he told me when he was down their fishing during scout camp, The siren started blaring and he had to walk to Hannahs's venture base cause his camp was not on that side of the lake. Lol

Some of the Mobil Directo sirens in the Memphis area were quite low-mounted.

Bump. Here is a Model 5 in Holland Michigan

I am in England, which is a rare place to find sirens first off, but this encounter was different. I was driving up to Leicester, to go see the space centre they have round there, and on the way I saw a Tangent siren, an original green & red one, mounted about 4 meters off the ground. It was a rare sight since it had all the original features, but I didn’t see a controller or wire..Must be button-operated. Then I got out the car to get a closer shot, but I had to go, I didn’t get any pictures of it. On the way back from the space centre I went the same way, but I didn’t see it. I know it’s a bit off-topic, but it’s worth for a low mounted siren.

Siren hunting with a few friends and found this 2001 which is only little higher than the building it's next to.
