Do you want to create a safe and efficient construction site that incorporates a means of controlling access and protecting people while maintaining visibility? One of the ways that this can be achieved is through the high-quality protective hoardings from TITAN Hoarding Systems, which are engineered to do just that.
The TITAN construction portal, which is an A-class set of external wind-rated hoardings with a protective roof, is ideal for funnelling traffic either through or into a construction site to improve safety, aesthetics and site privacy.
However, if you want to take this system beyond being just a set of robust barriers, you should implement carefully considered lighting and signage to take their safety and functionality to the next level.
Lighting Can Enhance Visibility And Security
Adding lighting to your construction portal isn’t just smart. It is essential. These protective hoardings are designed to support internal lighting, which can improve visibility during nighttime work or low-light conditions.
Also, if you have an extended portal, lighting may be essential to ensure visibility as people traverse the tunnel.
Proper lighting can boost confidence for pedestrians and enhance safety by preventing slipping, tripping and other avoidable incidents. Also, having a lit pathway can reduce the risk of unauthorised entry.
Further, whether you are loo using the portal for site access or as a pedestrian thoroughfare, lighting can improve overall site security.
Signage Can Guide And Inform
Whether you are dealing with construction personnel or members of the public, protective hoardings need to include clear and visible signage that can direct foot traffic and communicate key safety messages.
Construction sites can be a cause of confusion as entryways and access points are temporarily rearranged for the duration of the project and so incorporating wayfinding signage, hazard warnings and even site branding on your construction portal can be essential for minimising safety incidents and reducing confusion.
Whether you are using the portal to guide the public through a shopping precinct or helping workers navigate an active zone, the signage can play a crucial role in maintaining order and safety.
You can also use the construction portal walls to display branding and advertisements, which can attract additional revenue. Alternatively, you could use the protective hoarding’s surfaces to promote your own brand.
