PaverLaser.com Launches Asphalt Paver Laser for Straight Lines

Frank Foore, the proprietor of PaverLaser.com, formerly Asphalt Pokers, headquartered in Akron, Ohio, developed the asphalt paver laser for his own use in paving a consistent, straight line a few seasons ago. 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. “We’ve had them for a couple years now.”

After encouragement from fellow contractors, he developed additional units and released the technology in June of 2025. Now he can’t keep the units in stock. To produce them in larger quantities, he’s working on a plan, 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 for the laser, but Foore will be offering a clamp-style mount by press time. He 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 jobsite. The laser is equipped with a built-in cooling fan so it can handle the intense heat of paving operations.
