How can I contact Doorspace?
You can contact Doorspace through the website or by email. For formal collaborations, courses, school groups, or institutional agreements, it is best to include the number of people, period, type of activity, required machines, and whether supervision or safety training is needed.
Can I store my project at Doorspace?
Small temporary storage may be possible, but it needs to be agreed in advance. Doorspace is a shared space, so long-term or large storage is limited.
Can Doorspace help me make a prototype?
Yes. Doorspace can support prototyping through access to tools, machines, knowledge, and sometimes direct design or fabrication support through Pro-Duck or the Doorspace network.
Can I bring my own materials?
Usually yes, but this depends on the material and the machine you want to use. Some materials are not safe or suitable for certain machines, especially laser cutters, CNC machines, or heat-based processes. Always check before using your own material.
Can I use Doorspace for commercial work?
Yes, within reason. Members and users can work on personal, educational, or professional projects, as long as the use fits the space, safety rules, and availability.
Can beginners join?
Yes. Beginners are welcome. Many Doorspace activities are designed to introduce people to tools, materials, and making processes in an accessible way.
Is Doorspace only for professionals?
No. Doorspace is for both professionals and non-professionals. It is meant for people who want to make, learn, test ideas, repair things, or work on creative and technical projects.
How many people can join a workshop?
This depends on the activity and machines used. For hands-on machine-based workshops, smaller groups are usually better. For some activities, groups may need to be split so everyone can work safely and properly.
Can I organise a workshop at Doorspace?
Yes. Doorspace hosts and develops workshops around making, woodworking, recycling, digital fabrication, electronics, repair, design, and related topics. Workshop details depend on the number of participants, duration, required machines, materials, supervision, and safety requirements.
