Construction two-way radios for busy sites and crane crews

On a construction site, a missed call can stop a crane lift, hold up a concrete pour or put someone in the wrong place at the wrong time. Radio Industries supplies construction two-way radios and accessories built for site conditions, so supervisors, crane crews, traffic controllers and trades can talk instantly across the whole project.

What construction teams use

Rugged handheld radios

IP67 rated digital and UHF handhelds that cope with dust, rain and drops. See handheld radios.

UHF CB radios

Licence-free radios for smaller crews and short-term sites. See UHF radios.

Vehicle and plant radios

Mobile radios for utes, trucks, excavators and site vehicles. See vehicle radios.

Hearing protection headsets

3M PELTOR and Sensear headsets for noisy plant, demolition and crane operators. See headsets.

Push-to-talk over cellular

Connect site offices, project managers and multiple sites over 4G/5G. See PoC radios.

Batteries, chargers and earpieces

Multi-unit chargers, spare batteries and earpieces to keep a fleet running. See accessories.

Two-way radios for cranes, dogmen and riggers

A crane lift relies on clear, uninterrupted instructions between the operator, dogman and riggers. Many crews now run a dedicated crane channel, or a full-duplex hands-free system such as the Delta Freecom, so the operator and dogman can talk at the same time without pressing a button. Pair it with hearing protection headsets from 3M PELTOR or Sensear in the cab and on the deck, and keep a spare charged radio on every lift.

Dedicated lift channel kept clear of general site traffic
Full-duplex, hands-free talk for tower crane, mobile crane and dogman crews
Headsets with hearing protection for operators near engines and plant
Repeaters for tower cranes working over tall structures or across large sites

Tell us the cranes, lift heights and crew size on your project and we will recommend a setup. See crane headsets and repeaters.

Features that help on site

Private licensed channels so your crew isn't talking over neighbouring sites
Dust and water sealing (IP67 or better) for outdoor work in all weather
Loud, clear audio and noise-cancelling microphones near machinery
Lone worker and man down alerts for staff working alone or at height
Long battery life to cover a full shift

Coverage for large and multi-level projects

High-rise builds, tunnels and large civil projects can block radio signals. We can plan repeaters and channels so every level and zone stays connected, and arrange private frequency licences (see the ACMA land mobile licence). Talk to our system design team about your project.

Supply, programming and support

We program radios before dispatch, supply spares and accessories, and service and repair radios when they need it. We supply construction companies in every state and territory. Contact us for availability, lead times or a suitable alternative.

Construction & Crane Two-Way Radios FAQs

Do construction sites need licensed radios?

Not always. UHF CB radios use public channels and need no individual licence, but busy sites often choose commercial radios on a private licensed channel so their crews are not interrupted by other users. We can arrange private frequency licences.

Which radios are best for crane and dogman communication?

Crane crews need clear, reliable audio with no interruptions, so a dedicated channel and a radio with good noise cancelling is important. Many crews also use headsets with hearing protection. Call 1300 266 682 and we will recommend a setup.

How do we keep radios working on high-rise or underground levels?

Concrete and steel block signals, so larger projects often need a repeater. We can assess your site and recommend the right coverage solution.

Can radios be programmed with our site channels before delivery?

Yes. Send us your channel plan and we will program the radios so they are ready to use when they arrive.

Do you supply chargers and spare batteries for a whole fleet?

Yes. We supply multi-unit chargers, spare batteries, earpieces and other accessories for most major brands. See accessories.
