Modern cell tower installation is a field that has an abundance of complexities, and easing them by hiring a crane rental company is an excellent way to move forward with a project. Contractors in many construction areas have found crane rentals are the best way to handle large-scale projects, and the expanding need for more cell tower installers has opened up the job market. Rather than investing in the expensive cranes and pieces of equipment, including training personnel, hiring an established crane partner for the project can be a massive cost and time saver. We want to help you explore the benefits of using Dependable Crane’s mobile crane rental fleet when it is time to plan and execute your cell tower installation, maintenance, and upgrade projects.
A New Installation
Light and airy looking from a distance, cell towers are heavy metal structures that range between two hundred to two thousand feet. These structures require a firm base on the ground, and then the lifting begins. We can help in several different ways with a new installation, and it can all depend upon the terrain.
Our 3-D software can model any site's details, and it is one of the best ways to select the correct mobile crane rental to get the job done. Urban locations that are generally level often benefit from using a carry deck crane, but landscaping at the site could require a crawler crane. It is used to help spread out the weight of the load lift, and it is a safer option when the terrain is more rugged. For those jobs on hillsides that are steeper, we recommend the rough-terrain crane. It can accomplish the lift in safety once it is on location.
Any new project requires an experienced team, and we have the equipment and personnel available. Our services department can model the job before it begins to save time and money by precisely knowing how to accomplish each lift. When it is time for the actual installation, our riggers and crane operators can follow the plan with safety always in mind.
Tower Maintenance
The need for maintenance in any environment can be critical. The weathering received by cell towers and the instruments they support is an essential factor in keeping cell service available to an area. Being able to reach the components that enable cells in an area to function can be a dangerous task when crews are expected to climb the tower. Our cranes can lift those same crews more safely and quickly. It can make it easier to service more towers in a short time, and it can keep your insurance costs more reasonable with fewer accidents or injuries on the job. A reduction in time equals and lower labor cost and overall project cost for our clients.
Our crews at Dependable Crane specialize in the lifting, and they have years of experience with cell tower maintenance. A mobile crane rental through our company comes with service personnel to help select the right equipment to get the job done, and we have experienced equipment operators able to assist with the work. Equipment may need to be replaced, or more can be added with our efficient modeling system and experienced riggers.
Upgrading Current Towers
The advent of 5-G technology has made upgrading current towers a necessity in many areas, and even some replacements may be part of a large contract. The ability to get the work done quickly and safely is all part of what we offer as a crane rental company, and we have the personnel and equipment to do the job right.
Upgrading a tower can include replacing the entire tower, just the electronics modules, or a complete replacement of the whole tower. Our service personnel understands the complexities that come with each of these contracts. We are ready to assist with rentals and trained crews to upgrade your service area to enjoy the new technology it offers.
Over the last 30 years, our company has expanded its expertise into many areas where cranes are an efficient and effective tool to complete a job safely. Cell tower installation and upgrades are an essential part of our business. From our modeling software to help formulate a plan to install or replace a tower, we have expanded our services from lifting capacity to include installing control electronics and digital signal processors. We can also provide crew members with experience in transmitter and receiver, transceivers, and antenna installation.
