Mount radios a safe, easy new way: clamp it, don’t core it.
If you’ve ever hauled cinder blocks to a roof, dodged rebar with a core drill, or argued with a property/ IT/ Operations manager about wall or roof penetrations—you already know the “old way” is a major bummer.
Meet the USA-made Dotworkz Z-Bracket. It’s the non-penetrating, clamp-in place mount that lets you install Ericsson Cradlepoint W1855, Cradlepoint MG51E, and Cradlepoint MG52E radios fast, clean, and without damage.

Why techs are clamping, not coring
•No drilling drama. Skip rebar hits, dust ,ladders, lifts permits, and penetrations.
•Reuse & redeploy & realign . Finished the job? Take the Z-Bracket to the next site—no epoxy anchors left behind.
•Corner + wall parapet in one SKU. One clamp handles straight parapets and 90° exterior corners.
•Made in the USA. Higher quality and more domestic content than those imported rotary bits and anchors.

Old way vs. new way 2025+
Old way:
Non-penetrating roof sleds with cinder blocks, Jay brackets, corner mounts, satellite dish sleds… plus the occasional core drill. Heavy to move, slow to level, hard on roofs, and rarely purpose-built for 5G radios.
New way (Z-Bracket):
Clamp, tighten, align or even reposition. No holes. No blocks. No roof clutter. A clean, professional install that property, IT managers actually like.

Typical install cost check
You don’t just pay a tech for “a few holes drilled into a concrete walls “ You pay for everything around them:
•Labor: Small cores (1–2”) often take 5–15 minutes each; larger holes can run 30–60 minutes. Add setup, staging, and cleanup and the hours stack up—especially at $70/hr on the West Coast (often more on prevailing-wage jobs).
•Risk & rework: Hit rebar? Now you’re scanning (GPR), patching, or asking for engineering approval.
•Consumables & cleanup: Bits/blades wear out; dust containment and debris disposal add time and cost.
Typical coring/cinder-sled job: It’s easy to burn $500–$1,000 in hidden labor, scanning, consumables, and cleanup—before you even power up the radio.
Z-Bracket job: with this new patented clamp and ~90 minutes for two techs. That’s hundreds saved on every install—and crews finish more sites per day.
How ? … it’s a clamp that saves hundreds dollars off every security camera, point to point, Meraki , Cradlepoint rooftop job.

Built for carrier-certified radios
Your radios are ready on day one. The Ericsson Cradlepoint W1855, MG51E, and MG52E are certified across AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, UScellular, and major regional/global providers. The Z-Bracket gets them into optimal line-of-sight positions without waiting on drilling or redrilling or lugging block sleds.

What crews are saying
•“No more rebar surprises” — fewer scans, fewer delays, fewer wrecked bits.
•“Faster, lighter installs” — no cinder blocks up the stairs or in the elevator.
•“Reusable hardware” — one clamp, many sites; total cost of ownership drops.
•“Cleaner result” — building owners love the no-holes, no roof liability approach.
⸻
Bottom line
If your team is still drilling holes or hauling roof sleds for W1855/MG51E/MG52E installs, you’re spending more time, more labor, and taking more risk than you need to.
Clamp it. Don’t core it.
USA-made Z-Bracket = faster installs, safer crews, happier property managers, and lower total cost—every time.
