There are a few important factors to consider when setting up equipment for Event Hire and Support that we will detail below.

Timeline

When setting up events or festivals, it is more cost-effective to have more time available to manage logistics and deliveries. A tighter timeframe to set up your event requires additional manpower and this can prove more expensive as logistics issues can be more costly.

Project Management

An experienced, proven project manager is vital when setting up events. Effective planning and organisation will certainly help events run smoothly and will avoid your resources being wasted.

Support Equipment

To set up and takedown, you must have access to the correct storage and ancillary equipment – not having the correct kit will make this process much longer.

We have a wide variety of Vehicle Access Mats available, depending on the ground conditions and different load sizes. Our nationwide, specialist delivery and deployment equipment enables a quick and easy installation process. Vehicle access mats are used to provide ground protection and access for vehicles such as cranes and HGVs.

We provide quick and effective temporary access and ground protection for all types of ground conditions – including soft ground, hard standing areas and sloping terrain. Our range of mats provide solutions for long and short term projects and are considered essential in construction environments and large events such as festivals.

The mats are typically set up as temporary driveways, lightweight pedestrian footpaths and to create car parking areas. Each side of the mats have anti-slip and anti-skid properties to keep pedestrians and vehicles safe.

We have thousands of temporary fencing panels in stock at Safe Fence and as one of the largest distributors of temporary fencing we can supply from stock. We are well established in the market already dealing with some of the UK’s largest festivals, film production and events companies – providing a nationwide service.

We have a range of temporary fencing solutions that can be installed with a market-leading response time. Our temporary fencing is easy to erect and transport. We already have a range of stillages and bins to make our transportation and distribution of temporary fencing around sites safe. Our product range can meet all types of security needs whether it’s sectioning off “no access” zones or to set up high security site compounds.

For Event Hire and Support, the most popular fencing solution used is Anti-Climb Mesh fencing. It is easily erected using rubber block fence feet and coupled using fence clips. It is lightweight, portable and relatively cheap with its anti-climb mesh infill making it a more secure perimeter fencing less prone to damage. Mesh fencing panel dimensions are 3.5m wide x 2.0m tall.

Mesh pedestrian and vehicle gates are also available to safely manage and control site access effectively. The gates are 2.0m high and come fit with a slide bolt latch allowing you to lock the gate from the inside.

Panel printed covers are another complementary feature to be used for commercial purposes to advertise. All you have to do is provide us with a design and we can print bespoke advertising to fit over your temporary fence panels.

At Safe Fence, we can easily install our wide range of crowd control barriers on-site or at events for you. We offer extremely competitive pricing and have market-leading delivery and installation times due to our stock levels.

Crowd control barriers are strong and durable temporary barrier systems perfect for helping to guide civilian traffic safely. The fixed leg barriers require no accessories and can easily deal with uneven terrain.

They are easy to set up, very cost-effective and can be reused on multiple occasions. The barriers are typically set up to ensure crowd safety and to restrict people from entering restricted areas. They efficiently manage on-site work to keep the workforce and civilians safe and are popular amongst busy venues such as nightclubs.

Fixed leg crowd control barriers consist of a singular piece of tube making up the whole frame. This sturdy frame means that unlike some other barriers people can stand on them without damaging the barriers or themselves. Each barrier has four feet welded to the frame with the feet being splayed to make the barriers easy to stack. These barriers require no accessories to set up and can deal with uneven terrain when marking out paths.

Loose leg crowd barriers are also available for those who are looking to store barriers lying down as they come with detachable legs. Loose leg barriers are also good to use in areas where the ground is very soft or wet as the loose leg provides a larger surface area. This means the barrier legs are less likely to sink into the soft ground.

Walkthrough crowd barriers are used to create pedestrian access points. The basic option is designed with a straight walkthrough point and the advanced barrier incorporates a gate with spring loaded hinges to better manage access and crowd flow. These walkthrough barriers are powder coated red to highlight the crossing points, but can be powder coated any colour to suit your requirements.

Increasingly common is also our plastic crowd control barriers, which are 2.0m wide and 1.1m high. They are designed with swivel removable feet and connect easily to one another using a simple hook and eye system which reduces installation time and costs. They are made from high density, eco-friendly polyethylene which has incredible durability and strength. Commonly used in busy public areas such as festivals, marathons and events, they are easily stored and transported when not being used.
