Tower

A cell tower (also called a cell site) is a cellular-enabled mobile device tower where an antennae and other electronic communications equipment are placed—usually on a tower, radio mast, or other raised structure—to facilitate communication through a cellular network, i.e., enable your mobile devices to function.

We at Rapid Access Integrated Services are conversant with Cell sites built or fabrication, we work with you on the design and dimensions as approved by our client. The common Towers widely used are:

Monopole Towers: A single tubular mast comprises this type of cell tower; because of the instability that comes with the use of a single pole, the height of these structures will not exceed 200 feet. A benefit of this tower type is that it requires little ground space to erect, and the antennae are simply mounted to the top-exterior of the mast.

Lattice Towers: Also referred to as “self-supporting towers”, lattice towers are typically made from steel and constructed in a triangular or square shape. These towers often offer the most stability and flexibility as compared to other cell tower types.

Stealth Towers: Stealth towers can be deployed to satisfy zoning regulations.  They are more expensive than other towers because they require additional material to create a concealed appearance. Their smaller size typically makes them less efficient.

Have you ever seen a painted metal tree standing tall on the side of a highway? That’s one familiar example of a stealth tower. This type of structure is used whenever there may be a need to hide a tower in plain sight. They are designed in a way to ensure that they blend in with their surroundings, as many people view bare cell towers as ugly, or an intrusion. These towers can take the shape of many other objects such as signs, flagpoles, and even cacti!
