Construction Site Sign Requirements
All construction sites require a form of signage or banner to brand their project with their name. However, more significant construction sites use hoarding signs to add extra benefits to their projects. Site hoarding is a temporary solid wall made from freestanding panels put around the perimeter of the construction site. Signage put on these panels are an opportunity to advertise and brand the company behind the project. Due to its size, hoarding panels catch the eye of passing civilians and vehicles with ease. It becomes a fantastic opportunity to showcase which construction company is behind the project. Many people come across hoarding signs on a day to day basis, and most people will recognise them on a subconscious level. This recognition means that people are more likely to identify and familiarise your company by seeing the same branding, colour schemes, and logos. The hoarding signage is large and complex to miss whilst passing by. These signs are very effective, especially when designed correctly with logo sizes.
There are various types of hoarding. These include plywood, polyvinyl chloride and temporary fencing. These materials can host signage for branding, but some are better suited for branding purposes. Sturdy boards will decrease the amount of dust from exiting or entering the site.
In areas next to walkways or roads, hoarding provides security to the public. The hoarding prevents the construction site from getting unauthorised access, which keeps the workers and the equipment safe and potentially injure a civilian. Unauthorised access could cause injuries to both the trespasser and the workers. The trespassing could escalate to more considerable hazards occurring due to unfamiliarity with the site and equipment of the trespasser. Warning signs on the hoarding will also lower the risk of trespassing Vandalism can only harm the project site and increase workload by creating unnecessary extra work. In addition to vandalism, theft could be another significant factor that might slow the project down. The tools and machinery are vulnerable to theft, and the hoarding provides a barrier of sight and a barrier of access to these tools. Hoarding offers security, but it also advertises the construction company whilst doing it. It is vital that the hoarding is reliable and wind resistant for additional public safety.
At other events such as festivals, hoarding prevents people from sneaking in without a ticket, thus creating safety for others. The hoarding also lowers the risk of crime at an event by making sure everyone comes through the same gate. The hoarding allows for a slower entry of people, increasing security. The signage could brand the event and promote sponsors, creating an extra income stream for the event organisers.
