Tower Crane Services for Florida, Georgia, Alabama, and Tennessee

Tower Crane  When it comes to high-rise construction and large-scale infrastructure projects, nothing quite matches the strength, height, and precision of a tower crane. At Sims Crane, we specialize in providing top-tier tower crane solutions, ensuring projects across Florida, Georgia, Alabama, and Tennessee are completed with efficiency and safety in mind. Our extensive fleet and experienced operators make us the go-to provider for construction firms needing reliable lifting solutions.

What is a Tower Crane?

A tower crane is an essential piece of equipment in modern construction, designed to handle heavy loads and reach extreme heights. These cranes are fixed to the ground or attached to a structure, providing unmatched stability and lifting capacity. Unlike mobile cranes, tower cranes remain stationary throughout a project, making them ideal for high-rise buildings, bridges, and complex infrastructure developments.

Each tower crane consists of key components, including:

  • Mast: The vertical steel structure that supports the crane.
  • Jib (Working Arm): Extends horizontally and is responsible for carrying the load.
  • Counter Jib: Balances the weight of the working arm.
  • Operator’s Cab: Positioned at the top for maximum visibility and control.
  • Hoist System: Handles lifting and lowering operations with precision.

At Sims Crane, we provide tower cranes with state-of-the-art technology, ensuring that operators can work safely and efficiently, whether they are controlling the crane from an on-site cab or using remote systems.

Why Choose a Tower Crane for Your Project?

If your project demands height, heavy lifting, and stability, a tower crane is the ideal choice. Here’s why construction professionals trust these cranes:

  • Unmatched Height and Reach – Unlike other cranes, tower cranes are specifically designed to operate at extreme heights without sacrificing stability.
  • Heavy Lifting Power – Capable of lifting materials such as steel beams, concrete panels, and heavy machinery with ease.
  • Space Efficiency – Designed for confined job sites where traditional mobile cranes would struggle to maneuver.
  • Long-Term Performance – Since they remain in place for the duration of the project, tower cranes provide consistent lifting power without the need for constant repositioning.

Alternatives to Tower Cranes: Mobile Crawler Cranes

While tower cranes are indispensable for many projects, mobile crawler cranes can serve as a flexible alternative in certain situations. At Sims Crane, we offer a range of crawler cranes from industry-leading manufacturers like Kobelco and Link-Belt. These cranes provide:

  • Extended Reach – Radii exceeding 300 feet, comparable to many tower cranes.
  • Higher Capacity – Capable of lifting loads between 70 and 600 tons, surpassing most tower crane capacities.
  • Mobility on Site – Unlike a tower crane, crawler cranes can be relocated around a job site with ease.
  • Faster Setup and Dismantling – Ideal for projects requiring quick mobilization and demobilization.

Our team of experts can assess your project requirements and determine whether a tower crane or an alternative lifting solution is best suited for your needs.
