FENCING + BARRIERS

A contractor compound, public queue, front-of-stage area and vehicle route each require a different type of temporary barrier.

The appropriate system depends on the purpose of the boundary, site conditions, anticipated interaction, required level of screening and approved crowd, security or traffic-management arrangements.

HERAS FENCING

Flexible mesh-panel fencing used to create temporary boundaries and secure areas around the site, including work zones, compounds, back-of-house areas, storage areas, and restricted locations. It can be quickly installed, moved, or adjusted as site requirements change, with gates and safety signage added where needed for controlled access and clear site separation.

SCREENED + BRANDED FENCING

Heras fencing fitted with shade netting, privacy screening, or custom graphics to provide visual separation and a cleaner site appearance. It is suitable for event perimeters, back-of-house areas, work zones, and restricted locations, while branded graphics can also be used to display event identity, sponsor branding, directional information, or safety messaging.

HOARDING + SCAFF WALLS

Solid temporary barriers used to create secure and visually separated areas around construction zones, operational compounds, back-of-house spaces, and restricted locations. They provide a more complete level of screening and separation while helping maintain a clean, controlled, and professional site appearance.

PEDESTRIAN BARRIERS

Lightweight barriers used to manage pedestrian movement and create clear separation across the site. They are suitable for queues, walkways, entrances, exits, temporary boundaries, and restricted areas, helping guide people safely while keeping access routes organised, controlled, and clearly defined.

MOJO BARRIERS

Specialist crowd-control barriers used to protect and manage high-density audience areas, particularly at front-of-stage locations, crowd zones, and controlled access points. They provide a strong and secure separation between the public and operational areas while supporting safe crowd movement, security operations, and emergency access in accordance with the approved crowd-management plan.

ROAD + VEHICLE BARRIERS

Water-filled and concrete barriers used to manage vehicle movement and create safe separation between traffic, pedestrians, and operational areas. They are suitable for vehicle routes, access points, parking areas, work zones, road closures, and restricted locations, helping maintain controlled traffic flow, secure boundaries, and clearly defined vehicle routes across the site.

Standard Heras fencing maintains visibility between areas while creating a physical boundary.

Where privacy or visual separation is required, beige, black or green shade netting can be added. Custom-printed graphics can also be installed for event branding, sponsor messaging, wayfinding or decorative treatments.

The appropriate configuration will depend on the function, location, wind conditions, project duration and required appearance of the fence line.

HERAS FENCING

Solid temporary perimeters can provide a cleaner and more continuous boundary between public and operational areas.

Depending on the selected system and project requirements, external surfaces can also be used for event graphics, sponsor branding, wayfinding, public information, decorative finishes and safety messaging.

System design, support, wind loading and installation requirements must be considered according to the location, height, finish and duration of the temporary boundary.

Pedestrian barriers can be used to manage queues, entrances and exits, temporary walkways, accreditation and ticketing areas, restricted zones, and separation from working areas, while providing clear guidance for pedestrian movement.

Barrier quantities and layouts can be planned around anticipated attendance, route widths, access points and the approved crowd and operational plans.

Pedestrian barriers are intended for guidance and lower-pressure separation. They should not be substituted for specialist crowd-control equipment where higher audience pressure is anticipated.

PEDESTRIAN BARRIERS

Available Mojo components include straight sections, angled sections, corners, runners and gates.

The required configuration will depend on stage and audience layouts, expected crowd conditions, security and stewarding positions, emergency routes, entry and exit points, pit access, and the approved crowd-management strategy.

Evolution Site can translate the approved operational layout into the physical barrier quantities and configuration required on site.

MOJO BARRIERS

Vehicle routes should be considered alongside pedestrian circulation, loading operations, emergency access and other site traffic.

Planning can include service roads, vehicle and pedestrian movement, loading and unloading areas, parking boundaries, controlled crossings, restricted routes, emergency access and delivery entrances.

Water-filled and concrete barriers provide different levels of physical separation. Their suitability must be assessed for the proposed use and should not be assumed to provide hostile-vehicle mitigation unless specifically designed, rated and installed for that purpose.

ROAD BARRIERS

Temporary fence graphics can include event branding, sponsor logos, directional signage, entrance identification, public information, safety messaging, decorative artwork and operational information.

Evolution Site can coordinate artwork templates, production and installation as part of the wider fencing package.

Artwork, panel dimensions, quantities and installation requirements should be confirmed before delivery. Wind and structural considerations must also be reviewed when screening or graphics are attached to temporary fencing.

Evolution Site can work with event organisers, production teams, security teams, crowd-management specialists and logistics managers to incorporate fencing and barriers into the wider site plan.

Planning considerations can include perimeter control, separation of front-of-house and back-of-house areas, pedestrian and vehicle movement, access points, emergency access, and visual screening of operational and service areas.

The final layout should provide the required control without obstructing circulation, servicing or emergency access.

Temporary fence lines may need to change as different parts of the site become available. During early build-up, contractors often require wider access to working areas, so fencing can be positioned more loosely or left open in key zones. As compounds, public areas, entrances and operational routes are completed, the fencing can then be moved into its final configuration, creating clear boundaries and controlled access points.

Depending on the agreed scope, services can include equipment delivery, offloading and distribution, fence and barrier installation, gate and access-point installation, shade-net installation, branded-graphic installation, layout changes, additional equipment subject to availability, and complete de-rig, removal and collection. This flexible approach allows the temporary perimeter to evolve with the site while maintaining safety, security and operational efficiency throughout the project.

Where required, Evolution Site can reposition fencing and barriers according to agreed changes in the operational plan.

Additional equipment may also be supplied, subject to availability, if the required fence length, barrier quantity or number of controlled areas increases during the project.

Changes affecting crowd management, traffic, security or emergency access should be reviewed and approved by the appropriate project stakeholders before installation.

Different fencing and barrier systems can be used depending on the site requirements, including Heras fencing, shade netting, branded fencing, hoarding, pedestrian barriers, Mojo barriers, water-filled barriers and concrete barriers. Each solution can support perimeter control, screening, pedestrian management, crowd control or vehicle separation where appropriate.

From individual barriers to complete site perimeters, Evolution Site provides flexible fencing and barrier solutions for events, temporary sites and long-term projects. Our equipment can be used to manage pedestrian movement, secure compounds, control access and separate public and operational areas.

We can support delivery, installation, repositioning and removal, allowing layouts to adapt as site requirements change. From simple crowd-control barriers to complete perimeter systems, our solutions help keep temporary environments secure, organised and easy to manage.
