First, try to decide if you are able to install a fixed (permanent) tower. If so, are you able and willing to climb vertical ladders? If so, consider an FWL model. If not, you will need an FWS. If you are not able to install anything permanent, then check out the PWS towers. Fixed are usually more cost effective, but portability adds flexibility.

Usually, 24-feet is high enough. For smaller bands of 100 or so, 16-feet will do quite nicely. You can always compromise at 20-feet. For very large ensembles that regularly march beyond the 20's, you might consider a 28 or even a 32-foot tower. Ideally, the height/distance ratio is best when it mimics the height/distance ratio of your target audience. Using graph paper, plot the relative distance of your primary listeners and viewers.Be sure to plot both the distance from your sideline and the estimated elevation of your audience.Draw a line from the center of your graph paper “field” to the plotted “audience.”Using the recommended height of your tower plus about five feet for eye-level approximation, find where that line would intersect with your audience line.That would be the recommended location for your tower.The more your preference lies toward a birds’ eye view, the closer to the sideline you will want to adjust your tower location. If you do move closer, please remember that your audience will see a slightly foreshortened version of your vision. To see exactly what they will see, remain near the intersection of your tower line and your audience line.

It depends upon when you order. Towers ordered in the off-season (November through March) could be delivered in 6-8 weeks. The later in the season, the longer the fabrication time becomes. We deliver first come-first served, based on the date of receipt of the P.O. and submittal approval. We can provide an delivery estimate based on when you order your tower.

We will ship you an installation kit to be used by the concrete crew of your choice. The slab should be prepared before your tower arrives when a local crane operator of your choice will receive and install the tower.

Our pricing includes any required wind ratings as well as FOB delivery, so we need to know where you are to create your own personalized pricing.
