Construction site hoarding is a temporary structure that surrounds the perimeter of a construction site to protect the public and construction site workers, and is a key requirement to secure the site. Hoarding protects the public from construction vehicles and work, and protects workers from other hazards. Hoarding prevents unauthorised access to the building site, and can deter vandalism and theft. Hoarding panels are versatile and can be printed with advertising campaigns, a company’s branding or information about the construction project. They can even prevent a new development from being revealed until the vital moment of launch.
Hoarding is usually made of timber or metal such as steel. It can be very durable and long-lasting.

On Ground Hoarding

On Ground hoarding systems provide an excellent solution in urban areas where hoarding is located on pavements, roads or other areas where excavation cannot take place. It is suitable for building sites and demolition sites.

In Ground Hoarding

In Ground Hoarding is a popular type of security for construction sites. It allows a boundary to be created with full knowledge all members of the public will be safe and away from any dangers that may arise on a construction site. 

Steel Site Hoarding ‘Ready Hoard’

Ready Hoard is a portable steel hoarding fence system that can be installed in the ground or on the ground. This steel hoarding system can provide good site privacy and security levels on construction sites, provide a professional image for your site and be re-used on multiple sites. The steel hoarding fence system can easily cope with sloping ground, leaving a professional and continuous run appearance. ABC’s Ready Hoard is available in two different heights and in a range of corporate colours.

Hoarding Gates

Timber or metal hoarding gates can be installed at various points throughout the hoarding on construction sites to allow access to be controlled, giving the site higher security.  Steel hoarding gates are perfect for preventing unauthorised access, privacy requirements, and protection for the public and are typically highly durable, lockable gates.

The benefits of construction site hoarding

Appropriate site hoarding is essential to comply with the Health and Safety at work Act 1974 and it can:

• safeguard your construction site from trespassers
• prevent theft of valuable constructions site equipment
• deter unauthorised access from intruders and animals 
• protect public safety and prevent potential injury
• minimise noise pollution for the surrounding residents.
