Modular Visitor Centres & Reception Buildings
We supply pre-built modular buildings that can be laid out as a visitor centre or reception — a welcome desk, information or display space, and options such as toilets, a small café or a shop counter, delivered and installed on your site.

Hire Visitor Centres in the UK
Need visitor centres for a fixed period? Hire it instead of buying. Adacon manufactures the building to your layout and hands it over on hire terms, then collects it when you no longer need it — with the same quality, fit-out and design freedom as a purchase.
Hire terms are flexible — tell us how long you need the unit and we will confirm the rate for that period.

We can compare the purchase price against your expected hire period.
Laid out around your visitors
We start from how visitors arrive, where they pay or check in, and what else they need. The layout is then built from joined units. Everything below is an option chosen for your site.
- Options can include a reception or ticket desk
- Options can include information and display space
- Options can include visitor toilets and an accessible WC
- Options can include a café or shop counter
- Options can include staff and storage rooms
- Large glazed openings positioned to suit the site
Example configurations
Buildings combine P300, P400, P500, P600 and P700 units, with bespoke options. A separate P600 provides approximately 11.4 m² usable internally. Example areas use a conservative per-module allowance before partitions; open joins can provide more space. Units can be combined or stacked over two storeys.

Every Adacon building is made from these units, or built to a bespoke size. Units can be combined — joined end to end, side by side, or stacked to two storeys — to create larger buildings.
