ABOUT US

In 1992, STEALTH® Concealment Solutions, Inc. engineered and constructed the wireless industry’s first antenna concealments. Since then, we’ve developed new options.

STEALTH® designs, engineers and fabricates RF transparent antenna concealment systems for the entire wireless industry – including roof top concealments, concealment poles and custom concealment structures. Architecturally sound and aesthetically pleasing concealment systems assist you in receiving quicker zoning and building owner approvals. And speedy approvals translate to faster site revenues. Plus, fabrication facilities on both coasts keep you covered at a depth unparalleled in our industry.

But looks aren’t everything. Visually appealing concealments must be engineered using the most radiofrequency (RF) transparent materials available. STEALTH® has worked hard to test and develop proprietary materials like StealthSkin™ panels that outperform any fiberglass panel available on the market.

Today, STEALTH® remains a leader by designing cutting-edge concealments. Whether you’re working on a new antenna concealment site or must retrofit an underperforming site, STEALTH® has the solution.

ROOF TOPS

In metropolitan and suburban areas alike, taking full advantage of the height of existing buildings is worth considering. Topping a structure with a screen, box or penthouse style concealment is an excellent option.

Site selection experts evaluate opportunities in the targeted site area and will help to determine the best choice. While this may take coordination with the owner or landlord, and evaluation of roof strength, access and security, a roof top concealment can be a perfect solution.

STEALTH® roof top or side mounted concealments can blend seamlessly with your existing building. Simulated brick, block, stucco and stone textures can be hand-painted to match existing building’s façade. Or add visual drama with a signal-friendly enhancement like a steeple, louvered penthouse or cupola – or an eye-catching architectural design element.

Though a STEALTH flagpole or tree may seem like a great quick fix, a roof top solution may actually be equally as fast. Typical rooftop designs like STEALTH’s distinctive penthouse, triangular mono-box, and roof sled, all of which utilize our exclusive RF transparent panels, are engineered for expedited fabrication.

Advance planning for expanded capacity – to conceal multiple antennas on a roof top or building side – may be your most economical choice for the long haul. Flexibility to incorporate additional carriers, or retrofit with new technology at a later date, adds to the long-term value of roof top style concealments. Plus, easy access to an existing building’s roof can translate to accelerated installation schedules and less site prep, followed by low cost post-installation serviceability.

WATER TANKS

Water towers are a great concealment option for those areas that either need to conserve a historical presence, or even serve as a multi-carrier solution. We have designed multiple water tanks and can provide an aesthetically pleasing concealment for whatever your site requires.

There are a few design options available for the water tower application. STEALTH has the expertise to engineer a water tower that will not only provide the best RF performance, but it will meet the strict needs of any community or zoning board. Our designs eliminate structural members in the antenna’s path and allow for the best signal transmission. We can assist with zoning approvals by providing photo simulations and drawing conceptuals.

Depending upon the structural capacity of an existing water tower, it is possible to add a concealment without modifying the overall look to the tank itself. Often times, this option is referred to the “hockey puck” as it utilizes radius concealment panels atop the tower. STEALTH can assist with the structural analysis and will design the new concealment according to customer specifications.

STEALTH can also design and manufacture a new water tank concealment, from the ground up. They can be designed for a single carrier or for multiple carriers. Many custom features can make these towers blend in to their existing environment or even safeguard a historical presense to include signage, faux texturing and even a custom roof.

STEEPLES

STEALTH® has designed multiple steeples, both modern and historic. Steeple designs range from steeple replacements to steeple extensions and even designs for new steeples on churches without one. Our concealment experts can assist with planning/zoning boards all over the country. We offer conceptual services and photo simulations to aid in faster approvals. Let our professionals guide you in your steeple concealment efforts from the start.

DAS

Our DAS systems can be found in hallowed football stadiums, along beloved campus pathways, along municipal walkways and in some hard-to-reach spots.Installing a Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) System is not for the faint of heart. We know. STEALTH has installed countless systems in a wide variety of places.

Our DAS systems can be found in hallowed football stadiums, along beloved campus pathways, along municipal walkways and in some hard-to-reach spots.

In stadium settings, we’ve hidden radios in some pretty amazing places you’d never dream to look.

Beyond stadiums, we’ve installed systems of mid-height, decorative light and banner poles that do double time transmitting and illuminating. And in true STEALTH style, we’ve modified them to blend into their host environments, which run the gamut from ivy-covered to ultra modern.

Not a collegiate client? No worries, we’ve installed faux cacti and other concealments for DAS clients in numerous settings.

TREES & POLES

While it’s tempting to look at trees and poles as “cookie-cutter” concealments, variables like wind speed tolerances and the location’s surroundings can dictate a more customized approach to even these simple-seeming concealments.

TREES

Although tree style concealments have many similarities to poles, they are slightly more costly and harder to maintain. Because they have to be built from the ground up, they’re more work to manufacture, as well as more work to install. Tree concealments face some criticism from the public, who make the argument that they simply don’t conceal as well as other concealment options. But in some instances, trees remain the best concealment solution – like when they are of the same species as indigenous trees and blend in with the environment.

POLES

Would a concealment pole allow you to place transmission equipment in a high profile area of your community? Will it prevent public opposition and delay target on-air dates? Whether transmission equipment is needed in highly populated or unpopulated areas, a concealment pole may be just the ticket to get you up and running quickly. From stately flagpoles to unassuming stadium lights…concealment poles can blend quietly into its surroundings or add a focal point to your chosen site.

SILOS

Silos are a great solution for those rural areas that require concealment. Using their exclusive RF friendly concealment panels, STEALTH will provide the most fitting silo for your farm environment.

CUSTOM STRUCTURES

Whether signal transmission equipment is located in urban or suburban locations, a custom freestanding concealment structure could become a community showpiece.

From steeples to clock towers, from crosses to lighthouses… or even ranger stations, your imagination – and ours – collectively push the untapped limits of traditional concealment structures. From the project’s inception, our team of professionals will work with all parties involved to provide the best possible concealment solution. Since 1992, STEALTH® has designed, engineered, and fabricated hundreds of custom concealments. Endless variations ensure every custom concealment is a creative showpiece, crafted to either enhance an area or blend unobtrusively with the transmission site’s immediate environment. Consider both natural and man-made surroundings in your targeted site area. A cutting-edge modern, historically accurate, or even natural appearing concealment could be the perfect answer to addressing signal transmission challenges in a visually unspoiled location.

Like rooftop concealments, custom structures can be designed to allow for capacity expansions – to maximize the number of antennas concealed, now or later. Your ability to add carriers or retrofit with new technology in the future adds immediate long-term value.

Though custom concealment structures are more expensive than other options…both initial investment and post-installation serviceability costs are heavily driven by your own design, height, and location choices. Your long term goals and budget will help you to determine if a custom showpiece is the best choice for your site.
