About Light Towers

Light towers are commonly used in nighttime road construction projects, mining and oil operations, shipyards, housing and building projects, agricultural settings, and other situations where there’s a need to add temporary, reliable lighting to enhance worker safety and efficiency.

Available in electric, gas, diesel, solar, and other variants with vertical and horizontal masts, light towers come in compact, narrow, and wide-bodied sizes suited for different types of jobsites. They can stretch anywhere from less than 10 feet (3 meters) to upward of 100 feet (30 meters) high. While metal halide-based models have long been in use, light towers implementing various LED technologies are becoming increasingly popular for their enhanced illumination, cost savings, power efficiency, and extended safe running hours. They also generally require less maintenance. Zero-emissions electric models, meanwhile, are generally considered environmentally friendlier, quieter, and more compact.

What Makes A Light Tower

While light towers aren’t the most complex of construction equipment, they do provide a vital service and do include numerous notable features and abilities. These can include such performance-enhancing ones as glare-free lighting, 360-degree coverage, nearly instant on and off powering, an ability to power from auxiliary power sources, and an ability for the tower itself to power other tools and lights. Convenience-minded features can include use of quick hydraulic mast lifting systems and easily accessible maintenance and repair entry points. You’ll also find models with on-road and off-road towing ability, variable-speed engines, temperature-management systems, engine-hour meters, weatherproofed light housing, secured internal storage, rust-resistant enclosures, and designs meant to withstand high winds.
