In UP’s Main Studio, it is possible to use a truss that can be lowered to the floor using motorised cranes.

The truss may only be operated by a qualified or trained technician.

If you choose to use a truss during your rental period in the Main Studio, you’ll pay a one-time fee for truss use for the entire period.

The price is 500 DKK, excluding tax.

Read more about the Equipment Bank below.

If you wish to use the truss, you must notify us at least 14 days before your booking period begins.

To ensure everyone’s safety, there are requirements that must be followed when renting and using our truss system. These precautions are necessary to prevent accidents and ensure that the equipment is handled professionally.

1. Requirement for a Qualified Technician
Only technically knowledgeable or trained technicians may operate the truss and crane system. This ensures that the equipment is used correctly and safely.

2. Mandatory Orientation Meeting
For safety reasons, the designated technician must attend an orientation meeting at UP. This session is essential for familiarizing the technician with our specific truss setup and safety procedures. UP will invite the technician to the orientation session.

3. Advance Information About the Technician
As the renter, you must provide the technician’s name and contact information 14 days before your rental period so that we can invite them to the orientation session.

Note: If, during the introductory meeting, UP’s consultant determines that the renter’s technician does not have sufficient qualifications to operate the system safely, the renter is obligated to find another qualified technician. If this is not possible, UP reserves the right to cancel the rental of the truss system.

UP does not have staff available to provide technical assistance. However, there is a list posted in the Main Studio with contact information for technicians who can be contacted independently of UP.

Any need for additional assistance with the use of trusses or cranes during the rental period must be arranged by the renter, who is also responsible for covering the associated costs.

UP’s Equipment Bank consists of secondhand theater technology and equipment. The equipment has been donated by the Copenhagen Music Theater and other institutions.

Although the equipment has been regularly maintained, it may show signs of wear and tear. In return, your technician will have access to all the equipment throughout the rental period—all that’s required is that your technician return the equipment to its designated spot, ready for the next users.

A link to an overview of the equipment in the Equipment Bank will be available shortly.

Purchasing access to the Equipment Bank is a self-service process. This means that your group’s technician has unrestricted access to all equipment throughout the rental period, provided that the technician returns the equipment to its proper place after use.

Renting from the Equipment Bank does not include technical support. If the borrowed equipment breaks or does not function optimally, it must be returned to the Equipment Bank on the designated shelf (see markings in the basement). The renter is not liable for repairs or replacement.

Since this is a self-service arrangement, UP cannot guarantee that the equipment list is 100% accurate. However, the Equipment Bank is inspected quarterly, at which time the list is updated.

Equipment from the Equipment Bank may only be used in connection with the rental of the Main Studio.

Equipment from the Equipment Bank may not be removed from Baldersgade 6, and it is not rented out for use elsewhere.

The Equipment Bank is located in UP’s basement, which is accessible by elevator. Your technician will receive a key to the basement from UP upon arrival.

Set aside time within your booking period to pick up and set up the equipment. This must be done Monday through Friday between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m.

500 DKK, excluding tax (one-time fee for your entire rental period)

The rental fee for using the Equipment Bank covers UP’s expenses for administration, insurance, inspections, and repairs of the equipment. 

Booking a room at UP gives access to a foyer with coat racks, as well as a kitchen with a fridge, coffee machine, kettle and cutlery.

There are four toilets and a shower access on the ground floor.

It is not possible to park in the courtyard, but there is regular street parking according to local regulations.
