Shopping centre hoardings

Arrange shopping centre hoarding installation with an engineered, pre-certified system. Discuss your site, centre requirements and fit-out dates with NXGN.

For centre managers, retailers and shopfitters

Get the hoardings in place before the fit-out starts.

A shop refurbishment needs a clear separation between the work area and the public mall. Shopping centre hoardings close off the tenancy while neighbouring shops continue trading, with doors for contractor access and a customer-facing surface for approved signage.

If you are looking for a hoarding installer, send NXGN the centre location, site measurements and required dates. We can discuss installation and removal, or help you find an installer for your location. Confirm availability, the work included and the centre’s requirements before booking.

Engineering and certification

Engineering, certification and centre approval.

The NXGN system is backed by an independent Certificate of Structural Design Adequacy covering AS 4687.1:2022 and AS 4687.3:2022. Your installation must follow the documented design, materials and limits for the selected construction method.

01

System engineering

NXGN’s structural certification covers its documented internal hoarding designs. Check the hoarding height, upright spacing, counterweights, doors and returns against the relevant drawings. Arrange engineering review where the proposed installation falls outside those details.

02

Installation certificate

Arrange the Certificate of Installation as part of the job. It records the site and installation details and confirms that the completed hoardings follow the NXGN installation guidance and certified design. Confirm who will inspect the work and sign the certificate before installation.

Discuss certification
03

Centre approval

Give centre management the proposed plan and supporting engineering documents for review. Confirm its approval and handover requirements before work starts, then provide the installation certificate and any other agreed records when the hoardings are complete.

Plan around a trading shopping centre

Agree access and site requirements before installation.

Centre managers need to know where the hoardings will stand, how contractors will enter and which public routes remain open. Agree these details with centre management and your installation contractor before materials arrive.

  • Confirm the lease line, hoarding height, door positions and door swings against the centre’s access and emergency exit requirements.
  • Agree delivery and installation hours, loading-dock access, the route through the mall and space to unload materials.
  • Confirm floor protection, skirting, paint colours and approval of any tenant graphics or directional signage.
  • Check the centre’s induction, insurance, safe work method statement (SWMS) and permit requirements for the work.
  • Agree who checks the completed hoardings, receives the installation certificate and arranges any later alterations or removal.

From enquiry to removal

From your first enquiry to removal.

01

Send the site details

Include the centre name and suburb, site photos, hoarding length and height, doors, installation date and expected hire period. Attach the centre’s requirements and a plan if you have one.

02

Agree the quote and approvals

Confirm who supplies the hoardings, delivers, installs and removes them. Have hire, transport, graphics, engineering and certification clearly included or excluded in the quote, and obtain the centre’s approval.

03

Install, check and hand over

Your installation contractor completes the work during the approved hours, checks it against the plan and drawings, and provides the agreed certificate and handover records.

04

Arrange changes and removal

If the fit-out changes, have your installation contractor review the hoardings before moving or altering them. Agree a removal date with centre management and arrange dismantling and collection.

Shopping centre hoarding questions

Can you help me find a shopping centre hoarding installer?

Contact NXGN with the centre location, hoarding measurements and installation dates. We can discuss the work or help find an installer for your location. Availability, delivery, installation and removal are confirmed for each enquiry.

Are NXGN shopping centre hoardings certified?

NXGN has independent structural design certification covering AS 4687.1:2022 and AS 4687.3:2022 for its documented system. Check that the proposed installation is within the certified design and arrange the site’s installation certificate after the work is checked. Centre approval is a separate step.

Do the hoardings need to be fixed to the shopping centre floor?

The documented NXGN system uses uprights and counterweights to stand without fixings to mall floors or ceilings. Use the specified upright spacing, counterweights, returns and fixings for the chosen height and construction method. Confirm floor protection with centre management.

Can installation take place outside trading hours?

Include the centre’s permitted working hours in your enquiry. Agree delivery, installation and removal times with your contractor and centre management before booking, including loading-dock access, security and inductions.

What affects the cost of shopping centre hoarding hire and installation?

The hoarding length, height, doors, materials, hire period and site location all affect the price. Access restrictions, work outside trading hours, graphics, delivery and removal also need to be allowed for. Send those details with your enquiry and confirm which engineering and certification services are included.

Can the same hoardings be used outside the shopping centre?

The published guidance is for internal hoardings. Outdoor locations and areas exposed to wind need a separate engineering assessment. Discuss entrances, open malls or other exposed locations before choosing the design.
