Wall Mounted Windsocks for Industrial, Commercial and Specialist Sites

Piggotts wall mounted windsocks provide a practical wind direction indicator where ground mounting is unsuitable or space is limited. Designed for installation onto suitable walls, façades and structural surfaces, they offer a clear and reliable indication of wind direction without requiring a freestanding mast or ground foundation.

Each system combines a durable high visibility windsock with a vertical mounting bracket and freely rotating swivel arm, allowing the windsock to align naturally with changing wind conditions.

Wall mounted systems are particularly useful on industrial buildings, warehouses, workshops, treatment facilities, depots, ports and other commercial sites where operators need an immediate visual indication of wind direction.

Manufactured using durable materials and backed by Piggotts’ long established textile expertise, these systems are suitable for permanent outdoor installation and can be supplied in aluminium or glassfibre configurations depending on the required height and site conditions.

Designed for Permanent Outdoor Installation

A ground mounted windsock provides maximum visibility while keeping the installation clear of surrounding buildings, equipment and vegetation.

Each system is engineered to rotate freely through 360 degrees, allowing the windsock to align naturally with the prevailing wind. This gives operators, pilots and site personnel an immediate visual indication of changing wind conditions.

Our ground mounted systems are suitable for installation on concrete foundations and can be supplied with hinged or fixed masts depending on your maintenance requirements and site access.

Choosing the Right Ground Mounted Windsock

The correct system depends on the location, operating environment and visibility required. Important considerations include:

  • Site type: Aviation, industrial, commercial or specialist use
  • Mounting height: The height required for clear visibility and clean airflow
  • Local conditions: Typical wind exposure, weather and environmental demands
  • Surroundings: Nearby buildings, trees and structures that may disturb airflow
  • Compliance: Any sector specific standards or operational requirements
  • Maintenance access: Whether a hinged mast is required for safe servicing
