AsphaltPro’s 15 Top Products: PaverLaser’s Asphalt Paver Laser Guides Your Screed Straight

This product was selected for the inaugural AsphaltPro’s 15 Top Products Feature.

Frank Foore, the proprietor of PaverLaser.com, formerly Asphalt Pokers, headquartered in Akron, Ohio, developed an asphalt paver laser for his own use in paving a consistent, straight line a few seasons ago. June 2025, he developed additional units and released the technology to the industry at large.

The device is just what it sounds like—a laser you attach to the asphalt paver to “point” at a straight line for the operator to follow.

“I made this for the paver to follow or else you’re painting lines all day,” Foore said.

The asphalt paver laser offers a guide for a consistent line for the paver operator to follow, shining vividly during daytime or nighttime operations.

To produce the units in larger quantities, he’s working on a plan and talking with factories to make that next step a reality.

Each paver laser comes in a waterproof briefcase with a 12-volt plug and a DC plug so it can be run off a generator. The case also includes a magnetic mounting bracket or clamp-style mounting bracket for the laser. Foore explained the magnetic bracket is perfect for the Vogele paver his crew runs and other brands; the clamp style will be ideal for the Cat paver other customers have discussed with him.

The asphalt paver laser itself is a guide designed to offer accuracy and ease of use for a consistent line for the paver operator to follow. From roads to parking lots to driveways, the laser guide provides a stable, unwavering reference without the risk of losing line of sight. It also helps to reduce trip hazards, contributing to a safer job site. The laser is equipped with a built-in cooling fan so it can handle the intense heat of paving operations.
