There are a wide variety of ways to mount equipment. We are big fans of using standoffs. By using standoffs you are lessening the rick of electrical surge damage. Electricity will find the shortest path to ground. It won’t travel down/up a tower, out to a standoff, and back. Standoffs also do the important job of putting the antennas away from the tower. This way the tower is not interfering with the wavelength of the antenna.
Depending on the tower standoffs can be quite inexpensive. If you are talking about Rohn25 you can have some pretty basic custom standoffs made by a local welder.
