Evaluation of location scouting: Klinger factory

Last week we made a visit to a local abandoned factory, the Klinger factory. We visited with the hopes of being able to film there for our teaser trailer. As you can see, the front of the building was all boarded up, and a new fence had been placed after a fire in the spring. This was our first problem, so we had to search around the perimeter looking for another access point.
 After nearly an hour of searching, we found a overgrown pathway at the back of the building, we walked down along by a fence and found a gap. We walked through and scanned the area. Sadly, there was a clearing the other side of the fence, however there was a long drop, which would wouldn't have been able to get back out of in. In addition to this, there were also more wooden panels and metal fences surrounding the ground nearest the factory.
As we were leaving we saw this danger of death sign, so perhaps it was a good thing that we didn't manage to enter the factory, especially since the first floor had completely crumbled in the fire.



After location scouting I coincidentally found a newspaper clipping of the fire which had taken place in April at the factory!
