I find an opening, the homeless, drunks and junkies usually leave an entry point. I generally spend an afternoon having a good recce of a potential visit site, researching it and identify any potential hazards and then I'll revisit with my exploring buddy with the appropriate safety equipment.
I've been 'caught' numerous times by security and landowners and most are generally alright, and more fascinated by the images and the reasons I'm there.
It is a Civil Trespass matter so there is no illegality in doing it, the police can't get involved and usually the land owner can't be bothered with going to court only for you to get a caution.
Some of my best visits have been twilight outings around midnight.
Others I've obtained permission and submitted a full risk assessment before being allowed in.
