Handoff Pack
A practical route for handover packs on South African installs, written for teams who need clear sign-off and care notes.
How Handoff Pack supports retail lightbox installations
Handoff Pack brings together the documents and notes needed when a lightbox install is signed off on site. It includes the practical information clients and site teams need for care, print changes and record keeping.
A Handoff Pack records the details people ask for after the installers have left. It notes the frame size, print code, transformer position, switching point and any access rule set by the mall or venue. On South African sites, that record matters when power is isolated, tenancy managers request paperwork, or a replacement fabric graphic must be ordered against the correct frame.
Site photos taken at sign-off belong in the pack, not buried in a phone gallery. Include one view of the lit box, one of the power feed and one of any ceiling or wall fixing used on the job. Those images help the next store team understand orientation, cable routing and how the graphic was tensioned into the silicone edge channel.
Records included at handover
The pack is built for the moment a retail manager, landlord representative or expo contractor asks what was installed. It can carry care guidance, print change steps, electrical notes and the basic asset record for that specific lightbox or hanging frame. Keeping those items together reduces guesswork when the display is moved, cleaned or re-skinned for a new campaign.
Match the Handoff Pack to the exact install location before filing it with the job record. Check serial references, print dimensions and the final snag list once the illumination test has been completed on site. Lightbox quotes are built from the wall size, the frame depth and whether the unit is single or double sided.

Site conditions that affect handover
South African handover packs need to reflect how sites actually operate. Mall work may require tenant sign-off, after-hours exit stamps, loading bay records or electrician details for the illuminated section. Expo venues and regional centres also tend to have tight strike windows, so the pack should state what remains on site and what returns with the crew.
Dust on inland sites changes cleaning frequency for aluminium profiles and diffusers. Coastal humidity can influence storage advice for spare printed skins, especially if they are kept in back-of-house areas near service passages. Load-shedding and timed generator circuits should also be noted where final light checks were done under alternate power conditions.

Information to send for sign-off
Provide the store name, mall or venue, handover date, access contact and any defect noted during installation. Add photos of the finished display, the fixings area and the power point used for the lightbox. Where graphics were swapped on site, include the outgoing and incoming print references in the same record.
Capture the handover notes while the install sequence is still fresh with the crew and site contact. The finished pack should sit alongside the job card, artwork reference and electrical components list so future maintenance is based on the installed unit, not an earlier draft. That becomes useful when a campaign changes and the client asks for the exact fabric size or frame layout used on the original fitment.
