Maintaining privacy is a priority in most walks of life. That can be especially true on construction sites and at outdoor events in public spaces.
While the challenges are different, maintaining privacy on a construction site is important for safety and security, shielding the mess and valuable construction materials from the public. For outdoor events, the benefits are more about exclusivity, ensuring anyone who didn’t pay to be there won’t have access.
Fortunately, Fenceline Rentals Ltd. can help meet your privacy needs. We have construction fencing and temporary fencing for outdoor events that will work wonders when creating safe and effective private spaces.
The Importance of Privacy at Your Site or Event
At Events
A little privacy goes a long way at events, whether we’re talking about a wedding, a music festival, or an outdoor market. Each of those examples requires privacy for their own reasons, but installing temporary fencing can be a useful and effective way of establishing private spaces.
- Ensure exclusivity: Ever walked by an outdoor concert? You can hear the music, but it just isn’t the same as being part of the crowd or witnessing the band perform. Privacy screens help keep those who didn’t pay for a ticket out of the event, ensuring those who did feel like their money was well spent.
- Keep private moments private: Weddings, for example, are special milestones in a couple’s life that they want to share with their family and closest friends. With temporary fencing for outdoor events, you can create an exterior barrier that creates private spaces to celebrate together away from gawking eyes.
- Provide guests with privacy: Whatever type of outdoor event you’re hosting, there will be spaces where some privacy is needed. Guests are always grateful for privacy around outdoor portable toilets. Temporary fencing can create separate spaces at an event that are needed are appreciated.
- Private spaces for special guests: Performers at concerts will likely want to retreat to a private space away from the crowd, and temporary fencing for outdoor events provides much-needed crowd control.
On Construction Sites

A construction site is a professional workspace, and privacy matters in those environments for a number of reasons. It starts with employees being able to do their jobs without a leering audience, but there are real and tangible benefits to maintaining privacy for employers, too.
- Site security: Construction sites are often full of expensive equipment and materials and can be a target for criminals and thieves. Maintaining privacy with construction fencing and privacy screens is important in preventing theft and vandalism.
- Confidentiality: This is especially important for sensitive projects, but it’s important on construction sites to be able to do the hard work that goes into any job without every move or break being watched over by the public. Creating a perimeter that maintains privacy on a job site allows important work to get done.
- Professionalism: Construction is messy work. Having some form of privacy barrier is important for keeping the space appear tidy and organized.
- Safety: Temporary fencing alone can help shield construction materials from harming those who are passing but on the street. However, adding a privacy barrier can also prevent as much fine debris from blowing on the street.
Steps to Ensure Privacy at Your Site or Event
Now that we’ve established the importance of privacy at events and on construction sites, let’s break down the steps that need to be taken to create privacy.
- Establishing Privacy Needs
Every site is going to be different, and that’s true for both outdoor events and construction sites. Fostering privacy isn’t as simple as just creating a barrier. It is specific to the needs and requirements of your construction site or event.
The important first step is determining where and why privacy will be needed. Will it be for the entire site, or are there only specific areas that require temporary fencing and/or privacy screens? Consulting with vendors, contractors, and performers to understand their privacy needs can be useful.

- How to Set Up & Take Down Temporary Fencing

- Additional Steps to Maintain Privacy
Temporary fence panels and privacy screens are a great way to maintain privacy on construction sites or at outdoor events. However, in some cases it can still be worth taking extra steps like hiring security.
That can be particularly true if you have high-profile, famous guests like politicians or celebrities attending your event.
