Four Telescoping Poles Give You a Hand Wherever You Need It
If you're a contractor or do-it-yourselfer who needs reliable support, 3rd Hand HD poles are the perfect assistant--and they're never late for work! With a rugged 150-pound load capacity, the heavy-gauge steel poles are as useful as an extra set of hands, and with a neoprene grip, they are incredibly comfortable to use.

Designed for optimum versatility, 3rd Hand HD Poles telescope from 4.75 to 12.0 feet in length. This ample range means you can keep your poles on hand from job to job, whether you're working on high ceilings or in tight spaces.

A dual adjustment system gives you two options for quickly choosing your length: use the tightening knob for smaller adjustments or lock in your desired height with the ball detents, which are spaced 12 inches apart along each pole.

Once a pole is in position, simply use the easy-pump handle to get maximum stability for clamping, bracing, and support. Use one or two poles for light-duty projects--such as hanging shelves--or all four poles for larger jobs--such as stabilizing ceilings (four Hand HD poles are included in the Contractor Pack).

When the job is complete, the poles' quick-release levers make disassembly a snap.

Handy Accessories Provide Versatility on the Job
When you're bracing a workpiece, such as a wooden cabinet, you want to be sure it's going to remain stable. That's why each FastCap 3rd Hand HD Poles is equipped with a 360-degree fully articulating head and food (eight included in kit). These 3x3-inch textured pads will solidly grip surfaces at virtually any angle, and they can be micro adjusted for the right fit.

When you want a larger grip area at the base of your poles, swap in the 6x6-inch 3rd Hand Universal Feet (four included), which are ideal for just about any job. Or if you're planning to seal off your work area to minimize dust transfer, attach the magnetic Mag Dust Barrier feet (four included) for a 100% seal and 0% dust.

To keep all of these handy feet organized, the 3rd Hand Contractor Pack comes with a ballistic nylon carrying bag. The bag carries all four 3rd Hand HD poles and all the accessories.

    The contractor pack is a great setup. Very good quality for the price. The company stands behind their product extremely well. I had a minor problem with one of the poles, called the company and they immediately sent out a replacement pole. Then they called me a few days later to ensure I received the pole and made sure I was satisfied with everything. Great service. The poles work great to help hold up cabinets, crown molding, and zip walls. The bag has lots of room to store everything, in fact I'm able to store two extra poles and the pads in the bag with plenty of room to spare. Highly recommend this product and the company service.

    I bought the contractor pack because I was planning to put up 5/8" drywall in my garage. Well with just the help of my wife (operating the 3rd hands) we were able to put up the drywall on an 11 foot ceiling with ease. These are absolutely amazing tools. This spring I will be remodeling my living room and they will no doubt come in handy once again, plus since the contractor pack comes with the 4 magnetic feet I'll be able to use 2 poles as a dust barrier while the other 2 help with the 1/2" drywall for the ceiling. If you don't have people that is willing to help you put up drywall, cabinets etc, get these poles they are definitely worth the money.

    « Wish I bought these sooner! »
    I just finished using these poles to create a temporary wall during some plaster demolition. I can't say this enough, Buy These Poles!!!!

    I had debated getting these or the Zip Wall version, which are twice the price of Third Hand, and these worked great. One of the reasons I went with the Third Hand version is that you can use these as work supports as well, where as the Zip Wall version seems to be a one trick pony and is truly made for wall construction only.

    A few tips, I bought the small yellow magnets which allow the plastic sheeting to be attach to the sides of poles, this was great for creating a temporary door between two poles. This also meant I didn't need to buy those zipper doors to get in and out of the room. Also, I purchased the larger bases/feet sold on Amazon, but if you are just going to use these poles as a dust barrier, the feet supplied with the kit are fine. The four pole version comes with a carry case and does help keep all the parts together when you are done. I bought the four poles instead of two after reading reviews of both products and a few people commented that you needed four poles to close off certain areas; I actually needed all four on the first job.

    Here is the only issue I had, and it would be the same issue encountered with Zip Wall. Unless you tape the plastic sheeting directly to the wall on the sides, you will have a half inch opening between the pole and the wall that will allow dust through. Zip Wall sells an accessory which looks like a long squeegee and a bracket that attaches to the poles and keeps the plastic sheet firmly against the wall or ceiling, which is another $150 bucks. Third Hand has nothing like that I could find, so, you either tape the plastic to the wall, or attempt to mount the zip wall versions to your poles, which may actually fit. If you look at the accessory, you'll know what I mean

    I wish I had purchased these earlier on in the renovation since my wife and I were performing a daily cleaning ritual of the previously renovated rooms that were being covered in plaster dust each day. Based on my experiences, I cut down the dust mess by 90%, and once the taping begins, I am putting them back in action. I only wish my contractor had bought these instead of this being on my dime.

    The 3rd hand does exactly what it says it will do. It is easy to set up and functions easily as well. I did a large messy sanding job in my kitchen and very little dust went past the 3rd hand barrier. Well worth the money!
