Why Choose Our Metal Hoarding Panels
Whether you’re securing a construction site, screening a demolition area, or creating a safe perimeter around an event, these hoarding panels provide a solid, opaque barrier that keeps the public and site contents out of view. Unlike mesh fencing, the solid steel construction blocks sightlines completely, helping with both security and that all-important “first impression” of a well-managed site.
Each panel is corrugated for added strength and finished in pre-galvanised steel, so it stands up to UK weather without rusting through after a few months on site. The vertical tubing welded to each side isn’t just for looks; it’s what gives the panel the rigidity to stay upright and take a knock without buckling.
Because they connect using the same standard fence clips and feet as Heras-style fencing, if you’ve already got a temporary fencing system on site, these panels slot straight into your existing setup rather than requiring a whole new system.
Key Features
- Solid screening – blocks views into the site completely, unlike mesh alternatives
- Galvanised steel construction – corrosion-resistant for long-term outdoor use
- Manufactured to BS EN 10244-2 – recognised UK standard for fencing wire and coatings
- Vertical edge tubing – reinforces the panel and provides a clean fixing point for clips
- Compatible with standard fencing feet and clips – integrates with existing Heras-style setups
- Reusable – suitable for temporary use or as a permanent boundary solution
- Printable surface – often used for site branding, signage or advertising hoardings
What's It Used For?
These panels are a common sight around:
- Construction and demolition sites
- Housing developments and renovation projects
- Public events, festivals and temporary venues
- Hospitals, schools and other public buildings are undergoing works
- Vacant land, derelict sites and empty units
- Utility and infrastructure works in town centres
They’re equally effective at keeping the public safely away from hazards and keeping unwanted visitors, vandalism and graffiti away from the site.
Installation Information
Hoarding panels are straightforward to install but are best handled by two people, given the size and weight of each panel. You’ll need separately purchased Heras fencing feet and standard fence clips to assemble a complete run. As with any free-standing barrier, wind loading should be assessed before installation, particularly for exposed or long unbroken runs, additional stabilisers may be needed in windier locations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s)
How Many of These Panels do I Need for a 20-Metre Run?
At 2140mm wide per panel, you’ll need 10 panels to cover a 20-metre length, with a small overlap allowance depending on how the clips are positioned.
Can These Panels be Used Without Separate Feet, or do They Free Stand?
No, these panels aren’t free-standing on their own. They rely on rubber fencing feet and fence clips to stay upright and secure, so you’ll need to factor these into your order.
Will the Corrugated Steel Rust Over Time?
The panels are pre-galvanised, which protects the steel from rust in normal outdoor conditions. As with any galvanised product, deep scratches or cut edges can expose bare steel over time, so it’s worth checking panels periodically if they’re left in place for extended periods.
Can I Print or Paint Branding onto These Panels?
Yes, the flat corrugated face is commonly used for printed graphics, vinyl wraps or site signage, which is one reason they’re popular for public-facing sites and events as well as construction.
Do I Need Planning Permission to Install Hoarding Panels?
This depends on the location, height and duration of use, hoarding on a public highway or in a conservation area may require local authority consent. It’s worth checking with your local council before installation, particularly for longer-term or street-facing runs.
What's the Difference Between These and Heras Mesh Fence Panels?
These hoarding panels are solid steel, so they block visibility completely, whereas standard Heras panels use a mesh design that allows sightlines through. Hoarding is generally chosen where privacy or screening is the priority, not just a physical boundary.
Can These Panels be Joined to Form Corners or Angled Runs?
Yes, using standard fence clips on the vertical tubing, panels can be angled to follow site boundaries, though sharp corners may need an additional stabiliser or coupler for extra rigidity.
