The London Hackspace is located on Hackney Road which is known to have a very high bike theft rate. If you are planning to bring a bike it is recommended you chain it in the yard, for which we can provide access. We have a dedicated bike parking area with metal hoops, so you'll probably find it easier to leave it there too.

It's safer to use a D lock or lock and chain.  


Please remember that the London Hackspace is a public environment, especially on [[Weeking Open Evenings|Open Evenings]], and you should exercise common sense in looking after and securing your valuables.
