List the dimensions, weights, power and environmental needs of every exhibit before judging a room. Ask for hanging systems, fixing rules, floor loading and available lighting, and check glare or daylight at the actual exhibition hours. Map an accessible route with enough distance for viewing and safe queues, including reception, labels and any sales point. If talks or private views occur within the display, retain clear capacity without putting exhibits or escape routes at risk.
Confirm loading access, lift sizes, tool restrictions and the earliest build time. Decide who supervises contractors, protects surfaces and signs off the installation. Ask about overnight security, insurance, invigilation, cleaning and climate limitations for valuable work. The agreement should cover public opening hours separately from installation and de-rig, plus storage for cases and packaging. Photograph the condition before and after so reinstatement expectations are unambiguous.

Permission depends on the surface and hanging system. Provide weights and fixing details, and ask about approved installers, making good, paint matching and prohibited adhesives.
The venue may require public-liability cover, while exhibitors should consider the works in transit, installation and display. Agree responsibility and declared values with the relevant insurers.
