Direct answer

Agree the installation and dismantling windows with the venue and identify who coordinates access, equipment and safe working areas.

Check conflicts with other bookings and keep guests away from unfinished work. Record when the venue inspects the completed setup and who removes hired items afterwards. A decorator's promised finish time depends on having the space and services actually available. Late access should be escalated through the coordinator rather than solved by unsafe rushing around arriving guests.
