Telescopic masts have no halyard and eliminate the need to replace worn halyards. External halyards are usually polypropylene cables that corrode under the effect of the elements over time and need to be replaced. In addition, an external halyard is subject to vandalism. Anyone who can reach the cleat, mounted about four or five feet from the base of the pole, can cut the halyard or lower it and steal your flag. An internal halyard is a safer and more weather-resistant alternative, although more expensive. An internal halyard is located inside the flagpole. A crank is located in a lockable box about 4 feet from the base of the flagpole. To lower your flag, simply turn the crank so that the steel wire (not a rope like the outer halyard) can go up to the truck. This wire is wound on the pulley, then falls outside the pole to hold the flag.
When the wire is raised, the flag is lowered to the outside of the mast. The only drawback of this system is the difficulty of changing the halyard if it breaks.
