What makes an Alto HD tower better than the others?

Alto HD towers are the ultimate industrial aluminium mobile access tower on the market today. The most robust form of non-powered mobile access equipment available.

They are made using 3mm thick extruded aluminium tube. Most competitors use 1.6mm or less - and often seam welded tube - with a consequent effect on capacity, resistance to damage and performance.

Joints in our frames and braces are formed using all round welds not weaker strip welds and castings - both of which are inherently less suitable for joints in tension. These all-round welds virtually eliminate cracked welds and make the tower a much more rigid structure with joints 5 times stronger in tension and 13 times stronger in bending.

The ALTO conical head fittings prevent frames from jamming when dismantling towers so hammer damage is totally eliminated. An additional benefit of the head fittings is the frames automatically lock together during assembly, eliminating the requirement for flimsy, awkward spring clips that can be lost or damaged and render the tower unusable.
