Hackspace Move/Timeline

From London Hackspace Wiki

Cremer St Preparations

  • Agree on Cremer St restoration with landlord
  • Cremer St cleanup
  • Our Cremer Street lease ends on the 30th April
  • We need Cremer street to be clear so we can restore it by the 20th/21st April, but 13th/14th would be better.

Hackney Road preparations

Access

  • Get a locksmith to fit an electronic release on the back door.
  • Get override keys cut for every trustee for the back door release.
  • Get doorbot installed on the back door, running on an offline card DB. (Looking at Jasper, Mark and Charles here)

Services

  • Russ: take initial water & gas meter readings
  • organise rubbish collection (get a skip?)
  • Get an internet connection working - this may also require a phone line connecting, although I have a vague memory of Jasper saying the phone was already connected. Basic wifi follows on from this. (Jasper?)
    • Phone lines are connected by still being paid for, so we can't take them over. New line will be fitted 27/3/2013
    • FTTC internet ordered from Zen

Hackney Road build-out

  • Install the large classroom walls. Not totally necessary, but it might be tricky to have any of our regular meetings without it.
  • Get a lift engineer out to verify that the lift really is safe to use and place heavy loads in.
  • Install ventilation downstairs, routed outside. (Charles?)
  • Install plywood panel(s) in current grill Fire Exit door in basement to stop all the heat escaping outdoors (Pic)

  • Start setting up workspaces, workshop, shelves
  • MOVE ALL THE THINGS
  • Deadline : 20th/21st April, but 13th/14th would be better
