# How do I add spaces and set operating hours?

> Add rooms and zones inside a facility, set facility hours, and set per-space availability.

<Note>
  **Must know**

  * Facility operating hours allow multiple time blocks per weekday (for example, a lunch closure), but a space gets only one open/close window per weekday.
  * Open time must be earlier than close time, and overlapping blocks are rejected.
  * Deleting a space keeps its equipment — the equipment simply moves up to the facility level.
</Note>

Spaces are the rooms or zones inside a facility (the vault runway, a party room, an upstairs studio). You manage spaces and hours from a facility's detail page.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Add a space">
    On the facility, open the **Spaces** tab and click **Add Space**. A panel titled **Add New Space** opens; give it a name, an optional capacity, and a status — Open, Closed, or Maintenance.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set facility operating hours">
    From the facility's **Overview** tab, find the **Operating hours** section and click **Edit hours** to open the dialog. Toggle each day open, then set its time window. Use **Add block** to add a second window on a day (for example, morning and evening around a midday closure).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set per-space availability">
    From a space, set its weekly availability — one open/close window per weekday. This tells the schedule builder when the room is usable.
  </Step>
