Can you Dimension Door into a tiny hut?
Dimension Door doesn’t launch anything or move the person through anything; you teleport, technically never crossing the barrier of Leomund’s Tiny Hut. Instead, you completely bypass the Hut’s walls and simply appear inside of it, and as a result it would not be blocked by Leomund’s Tiny Hut’s effects.

When does a contingency for dimension door take effect?

How does a contingency spell work in D & D?
Choose a spell of 5th level or lower that you can cast, that has a casting time of 1 action, and that can target you. You cast that spell–called the contingent spell–as part of casting contingency, expending spell slots for both, but the contingent spell doesn’t come into effect. Instead, it takes effect when a certain circumstance occurs.
Can a contingent spell be used more than once?
The contingent spell takes effect only on you, even if it can normally target others. You can use only one contingency spell at a time. If you cast this spell again, the effect of another contingency spell on you ends.
How long does it take for dimension door to open?
The spell duration is “Instantaneous” so unfortunately (unless your DM chooses to make an exception) no. The door opens, you (and potentially a friend) pass through, and it closes. If you wanted to return you would have to wait until your next turn, and cast it a second time. Does this spell maintain momentum?
