What sizes of airer poles does this kit fit?

The kit fits both 32mm and 40mm rotary airer poles.

How do I install the spike?

Can I use this for other garden items?

Yes, you can use it for other garden items like parasols or bird feeders, provided they fit within the specified dimensions.

What is the purpose of the closing lid?
