A hoarding system is a hoarding system, right? It creates a barrier, secures the site, keeps people out and helps minimise the unsightliness of construction projects for the duration of the work.
However, if you have ever dealt with a rickety fence flapping in the wind or a system that takes forever to set up, then you know that not all hoarding is created equal. Top-quality hoarding systems can make a huge difference.
Let’s take a look at what separates budget junk from top-quality gear like TITAN’s hoarding systems, which are designed to make your life easier and your site safer.
Structural Strength
The first red flag of a low-quality hoarding system is that it moves when it shouldn’t. Have you got a windy day? Then your hoarding system will be swaying. If someone leans on it, it might bow.
This isn’t just an annoying problem. It is actually quite dangerous.
You need to have top-quality hoarding systems that are engineered to stay put and are wind-rated.
Free-standing setups have the strength to resist high wind loads without digging a single hole or pouring any concrete.
Set-Up Time
Cheap hoardings might save you money up front, but they will cost you hours in labour in the long term as you will have to reassemble them when they collapse. Every time you have to add a bolt, brace or some other workaround, it adds up.
However, if you have a top-quality hoarding system, you can set it up quickly and not worry about it again.
Safety And Compliance
It is important to know if you are properly covered in terms of safety compliance.
If you are running a construction site using a flimsy or non-compliant hoarding system, it can actually land you in hot water. If the system fails, the consequences aren’t just financial—they can be legal and even life-threatening.
TITAN’s top-quality hoarding solutions are fully engineered and certified to meet the Australian Standards AS 4687 and National Construction Code. Installing one of TITAN’s hoarding systems gives you peace of mind because you know your site is completely compliant, safe and secure.
Presentation
Your hoarding isn’t only a functional structure. It can also say a lot about you as a developer or contractor.
First impressions matter, and that’s also true for construction. Ugly, bent panels and leaning fences don’t exactly scream ‘professional worksite’.
If you want a look that is solid, clean and professional—something that you can brand with signage or blend with corporate or retail environments—then you want to go with top-quality hoarding systems that offer an aesthetic look that matches the quality of the build.
