Here at Blockade, we offer Surface Mounted Hoarding, Dug In Hoarding, Temporary Fencing, Vehicle & Pedestrian Gates and Crowd Barriers.
Fixed timber hoarding is different to free-standing hoarding in that we cement the posts into the ground with a minimum of 600mm deep holes.
Like free-standing hoardings it still provides total privacy, safety and security for your workers and the general public. The minimum height recommended is 2.4 metres, making it difficult to climb and still offers a visual barricade. Post to ground hoarding’s foundations ensure a perimeter that stays standing in any weather and prevents entry to your site.Â
Timber hoardings of this nature take longer to build but in some cases can be the stronger choice. A full report from your QS will provide us with the services that run under the ground. We use this information and findings to determine where the posts can go.
We make sure that no services are struck while we excavate to the recommended depth of 600mm (for a 2.4m high fence).
Free-standing timber hoardings are the best solution – When securing a site, digging-in isn’t always an option. The ground may not be suitable or underground utilities and services are in the way or too high risk.
Our free-standing timber hoardings provide a solid foundation for the supporting framework and entrances. There is no compromise on security and or privacy.
The free-standing hoarding foundations are created by using precast concrete blocks. The weight is calculated by our structural engineers and takes into consideration wind loads and crowd loads for all applications.
