Refitting a coworking space while it is open: swapping furniture without closing
2026-10-08
You swap furniture in a working coworking space zone by zone: one zone is cleared, assembled and released before the next begins. Montage und Fix Berlin prices per piece, net: a height-adjustable desk falls in a range of €31–58, an office chair in €8–15, depending on brand and model. This article compares the three usual timing models and names what has to be settled with the property management beforehand.
Which timing models exist for a refit while the space is open?
Three models are common. Which one fits depends on your occupancy and on the building.
| Model | How it runs | Advantage | Settle beforehand |
|---|---|---|---|
| Zone by zone in the daytime | One zone is closed, the others stay open | No standstill | Members see and hear the assembly |
| Evenings | Assembly after a zone or floor stops being used | No disturbance to members | Access and lift outside opening hours |
| One closed day | A large zone is rebuilt in one go | Large zones without interruption | House rules, notice to members |
Which time windows are possible is agreed with you by Montage und Fix Berlin in the written quote.
How do I split the refit into zones?
A zone is an area members can do without for a short time while the rest stays open: a room, a row of workstations, the lounge. Define the zones before the quote and number the boxes by zone. That way every zone can be booked again right after assembly.
Where do the old pieces go?
The old piece has to leave the zone before the new one stands. Montage und Fix Berlin dismantles and assembles furniture. Removal and disposal of the old furniture are not part of the assembly; for that you need a transport service. Packaging removal is available to business customers on request and is quoted separately.
What must be settled with the property management?
Working hours and noise are governed by the house rules and, for commercial space, also by the lease. Ask beforehand about permitted times, use of the lift and access to the floor outside opening hours. This article deliberately gives no general times: what counts is what your building specifies.
What does a refit cost at Montage und Fix Berlin?
Montage und Fix Berlin prices per piece even while the space is open. Travel is charged once per site and day, in a range of €27–50, and is waived from €600 net order value. These ranges are per piece, net of 19% VAT, and depend on brand and model. The final price is fixed after Montage und Fix Berlin has seen the exact furniture pieces. Not included are transport and moving, electrical installation, and IT and network cabling.
