The story of TelescopicMast begins with Frank Aben and Henk de Haan, friends from Den Bosch, Netherlands. In the early days of mobile telescoping masts, they saw a great opportunity to start a business together, combining their different strengths and personalities to achieve a shared ambition, a dream they had had for many years. Frank has a solid track record in engineering, designing, and building steel products. Henk has over 20 years of experience working in sales and marketing for fast-growing IT companies internationally. Both Frank and Henk understood how to bring this new and unique product to market. In short, they saw an opportunity to reinvent mobile security by creating something entirely new: a purpose-built tower system designed for modern surveillance needs. The Original.

From concept to creation

The idea for the TOWER product was conceived 12 years ago, introduced by our first customer and launch partner. They envisioned a solid, well-engineered base designed specifically for rapid deployment and reliable surveillance. With this in mind, they began sketching, prototyping, and testing their first models. Each step was grounded in a commitment to practicality, safety, and long-term use. The key elements are a stable base, a six-meter telescopic mast for cameras, and a box to store equipment such as batteries and patch boxes. The key design principles are ease of operation by one person, ease of installation, resistance to vandalism, and long-term use.
