A year after San Francisco’s Papenhausen Hardware was destroyed by fire, the business has temporarily reopened in a “pop-up location” a few doors away.

Store manager Karl Aguilar said the primary reason for the makeshift location is to keep the loyal staff working, since the insurance only covered their wages for one year after the Jan. 23, 2018, blaze.

Papenhausen expects to move into its former, newly rebuilt location by May or June.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
