How 'tall' is this hook? In other words, what is max length of feeder that can be hung from hook before going below height of the railing?

It's almost 30 inches high . However, if your feeder is heavy, the rod will bend down lower. Hope that helped.

I didn't actually measure the height but it looks like about approximately a foot and 1/2 of space if you swing the hook right over the railing and line it up that way. I have 2 of these and I love them. I feed finches all year long and I don't have to go into a yard full of snow to refill my feeders.

I've got it hung from the deck rail with a 16" bird feeder and I still have about a foot and a half of clearance from the level of the rail. I hope this helps.

Sorry with the delayed answer. From the hook area to the level of bird stance/feed level, it is 27".

I'm not sure about that. It turned out to be too large and heavy (when filled) to go on the hook on my fence. I wanted to put a net underneath it to catch the debris, but couldn't find a hook long enough to allow the feeder and net to hang out from the fence, so I ended up giving it away. I would only recommend it for haning from a tree branch or something. It's very heavy.

There is a wire loop that is used to hang the bird feeder. It is about 2 inches wide. You should be able to use an S-shaped hook is it is too small to fit around the branch.

Hi, the feeder has a space at the center of the bottom of it that extends inward about 1 1/4" with a diameter maybe 1/2" or so. I would assume that is exactly what it is made to do. I do not think bracket mounting would be a great idea, but might work if doesn't bend the metal base which screws onto the clear plastic. I just tried a metal rod for size while the feeder was totally full and there were no problems or damage. Keep in mind that the top must come off to add the seed, and after a few birds the feeder will be bottom heavy anyway(that's good for pole mounting). I hope this helps. later

I used it to protect my bird feeder from squirrels - it has worked perfectly. I don't know why it could not be hung from a sheherd's hook.

The hooks are about 1-3/4 inches in outside diameter and are rubber coated.The strap, when "latched" in the towing position; looks to be about 26-27" long (maximum); centerline of hook to centerline of hook.

After a couple of different heights I settled on 34 inches to the lower part of the baffle to the ground. The feeder is 36 inches away from the bottom of the baffle and 20 inches higher than the bottom of the baffle. Feeder is 54 inches off the ground to bottom of feeder. When I first installed the baffle, the squirrels could not get up the pole past the baffle and thus tried to jump from the pole at the bottom of the baffle to the feeder but gave that up after a day or two. The whole installation has worked very well with the feeder not being so high that I can refill it easily from the ground and most importantly the squirrels are really "baffled".

Hook should be 7 feet off the ground. We purchased the stand , and it was too big for the stand. Hung it from the beam on the patio.

The feeder is about 5 feet tall when fully assembled. You can lower it by leaving one section of legs off. However when you lower the feeder then the food is not broadcast very well or as far. Hope this helps.

The actual pole is standard size for Shepherd's hooks you see at Lowe's, ect. I think the 7 and 1/2 inch diameter includes the projection of the hook and (maybe) the anchor foot. It is well-proportioned and a great height for butterfly feeders or light-weight plants you want hung closer to the ground. It is too low for a bird feeder. I think the height is the more important feature. The taller Shepherd's hooks I've purchased at Lowe's have a much wider diameter.

Approximately 5 feet once it is in the ground. I'm 4'11" and I can put my bird feeders on the hooks by standing on tip toe.

Ummmm, a 15 lb. wet hanging basket may be too much for this hanger --- My bird feeder with seed is only 5 or so pounds --- This hanger is a 2 piece and the pieces are hollow (as reflected in the price). Heavy winds or other inclement weather could cause a structural failure with too much weight on the hook.

Hi, it measures 18/18cm and it has a plastic hook that allows you to hang it up... I adore mine so bought several in case they disappear from the market again. They clean up very easily and last for a long long time!

From the shepherds hook to the edge of the top of the feeder is 12 inches. It has to be that long because to fill it you slide the top up the cable.

Essentially 36 inches--the full length of the pole. It swings back and forth so it is easy to bring close enough to fill the feeder and then can be swung out away from the deck.

I have a metal plant hanger that I hang it from. The pole is about 5 feet high.

I'm 5'3" and I can reach them just fine when the post is fully secured in the ground. You just reach up and take the feeder/house/etcetera off the post.
