CUSTOM TOWER DESIGNS TO FIT YOUR NEEDS

Please also note that we would be glad to discuss and potentially design any custom tower you require to fit your needs.

Some examples of custom towers include a Junior with special reinforced lamination and stainless elevated mount column for an end of pier application that was engineered to withstand extreme weather conditions.

We can also incorporate solar energy sources to power communications equipment, lighting, fans, etc.
