COLLOCATING ON BRAND NEW TOWERS OFFERS BIG BENEFITS
Understanding the advantages of collocating on new steel, KGI now offers access to hundreds of brand new towers in prime locations. Each new structure has a major wireless carrier, capacity for up to four new licensees and most importantly, has been designed and built for collocation.

There are many good reasons to choose new steel, including better and stronger towers, fewer RF hassles, NEPA compliant, more compound space, more choice heights, and more tower space. And because KGI has access to all documents and construction drawings, completing the collocation process on a new tower is significantly faster and easier.
