As a renter, finding the perfect pole for home can be stressful. You need something that fits your space, is easy to install, and doesn’t leave permanent marks.
Go back 20 years ago - there were only toy poles (spring loaded), or you had to screw into your ceiling. Not ideal for renters!
The launch of X-POLE portable poles in 2004 has solved the rental dilemma, enabling you to train in your rental apartment & and take the pole down before rental inspections or family visits.
Here are the top 10 reasons why X-POLE is the ideal choice for renters:
1. Portability
One of the standout features of X-POLE is its portability.
Whether you're moving across town or across the country, your X-POLE can easily come with you. The design allows for quick assembly and disassembly, making it convenient for those who frequently change homes. Carry cases make this even easier, just carry a spare extension tube with you and be confident that your pole will travel the distance with you.
2. No Permanent Fixings Required
Traditional poles often require drilling and permanent fixings, which can be a major issue for renters.
X-POLE eliminates this problem with its pressure-mounted system. No, it's not a suction cup in the ceiling! The pole work's like a car jack (or an acro-prop), winding up until it's solidly in place, using pressure between the floor and ceiling. This means so long as you have a solid floor or joist/beam, you can install it without damaging walls or ceilings, keeping your landlord happy.
This feature not only preserves the integrity of your living space but also saves you from potential repair costs when it's time to move out. Get that bond back baby!
3. Easy Installation
You don’t need to be a DIY expert to set up an X-POLE.
You don't need a boyfriend (often the owner of the pole is better to install because they read the instructions and don't damage the pole)!
The straightforward installation process means you can have your pole up and ready in no time. If you're a visual learner - YouTube will be your best friend - just make sure you search for the correct model.
Plus, it comes with detailed instructions to guide you through each step. With just a few simple tools and a bit of time to follow the steps, you'll be ready to start your pole journey right at home.
4. Height Adjustable
One size doesn’t fit all, especially when it comes to ceilings.
X-POLE’s height-adjustable feature allows it to adapt to various ceiling heights, making it versatile for any rental space. Whether your ceilings are low or high, X-POLE has you covered.
Most of our floor-to-ceiling sets go from around 2.2m-2.7m as standard from the original set. The stage poles have a min height of 3.2m. However, with both styles of pole, we have extensions available to make almost any height work for you.
This variability ensures that you can continue using your pole even if you move to a place with different ceiling heights.
5. Safety and Stability
Safety is paramount when it comes to pole dancing.
X-POLE is designed with safety and stability in mind. Its high-quality construction ensures that it stays firmly in place, providing a secure environment for your practice.
The robust design and materials used in X-POLE mean you can perform even the most complex moves with confidence.
