Protecting the site throughout demolition works.
Secure site boundaries and managed access are important parts of demolition preparation. Measures depend on the location, public interfaces, project risks and duration of works.
What this service involves.
Temporary fencing and boundary planning
Demolition site security can include reviewing temporary fencing, site boundaries and physical separation between active work areas and the public. Residential, commercial and industrial sites require controls suited to their location, site layout and project risks.
Access management and entry point considerations
Controlled vehicle and pedestrian access can help manage construction traffic, delivery movements, demolition plant, workers and authorised visitors. Entry routes, gates and neighbouring property interfaces should be considered when preparing the site.
Site signage and exclusion zone planning
Warning signs, restricted-access zones, temporary barriers and site safety information may be appropriate during demolition, strip-out and site clearance activities. Required controls depend on the site risk assessment and applicable work health and safety obligations.
Coordination with the demolition program
Site security arrangements may need to change as structures are removed, access points shift and demolition stages progress. Temporary fencing, signs, site checks and reinstatement requirements should be addressed within the agreed project plan.
How we approach the work.
Assess exposure
We consider access points, adjacent properties and public interfaces.
Plan controls
Appropriate perimeter, signage and access measures are identified.
Manage the site
Security arrangements are reviewed in line with the work stages.
Important considerations.
Site-specific requirements
Site controls must be selected for the actual hazards and work environment. The listed measures are examples, not a fixed inclusion for every project.
Scope & coordination
Perimeter controls, access routes and the requirements of nearby occupants should be discussed for the specific site.

Frequently asked questions.
Answers to common questions about site security.
01What site security measures may be needed?
Depending on the project, measures may include temporary fencing, controlled access points, warning signage and exclusion zones.
02Is site fencing necessary for every project?
Site controls depend on the hazards, site boundaries and exposure to the public. The appropriate arrangements must be assessed for each project.
03When should security arrangements be installed?
Site access and perimeter controls should be considered during pre-start planning and established as required before work creates exposure.
04Can security requirements change during demolition?
Yes. As work progresses, access routes, open excavations and site conditions may change, requiring controls to be reviewed.
