Product details

Product information

    We offer both our Roost Maternity Bat Box and Large Colony Bat Box as either single boxes or double boxes mounted back to back on the same pole. The back to back boxes have the advantage that the two boxes will differ in solar gain and resultant thermal regimes. Bats can then choose the box which offers the optimal conditions and are likely to vary which box they use through the year.To securely install your Pole Mounted Bat Box usually requires around 1m of the pole to be buried below ground, however we would always advise you consult your builder or structural engineer as ground conditions vary from site to site. For ease of installation and shipping, the pole will be dispatched separately from the bat box and bracket. Apart from erecting the pole, the only tool needed is a spanner (or a screwdriver for the metal band version) to fix the boxes onto the pole.Features:Ideal solution when no suitable building or tree is available to mount a bat box.Enables the bat box to be placed in the optimum position.Comes as standard with a 4, 5 or 6 metre metal pole or banding to fit to your own pole.Choose between Roost Maternity or Large Colony Bat BoxChoice of a single box or two boxes back to back.Specifications:Pole: 4m, 5m or 6m pole; 76mm diameterBox Materials: Exterior Grade Plywood with ceramic insertsBox Construction: Panels stapled together with surface sunk staples.Finish: External surfaces treated with water-based non-toxic non-volatile wood treatment, with active constituent natural borate mineral salt.Entrance: 17mm wide slot.Internal: 3 internal crevices approximately 20mm wide with 3 ceramic inserts.Access: Removable roof, secured with 1 screw.Fixing: Rail/screw/clip fixing system for attaching Box to PoleDimensions and WeightSingle Box Dimensions: Overall height: 49cm, Overall width: 26cm, Overall Depth: 13cm.Box 6.6kg; Pole 7kg (4 metre)

    Features and benefits

      Our Pole Mounted Bat Boxes are an ideal solution when there is no suitable building or tree available on which to mount the bat box. They can also be used to ensure that box gets maximum solar gain by placing it in an unshaded spot or if you want to position the bat box on a hedgerow. The Pole Mounted Bat Boxes use our standard Roost Maternity or Large Colony Bat Boxes with the addition of fixing rails which enable them to be securely fixed to the supplied metal poles. Alternatively if you have a telegraph pole or similar already installed we can supply the boxes with rails and metal bands which allow you to fix them to poles up to 900mm circumference.
