Floating Hangar Doors — Why Owners Are Making The Shift

When designing a modern aircraft hangar, usable space and aircraft flow matter more than ever. One door configuration gaining significant traction in Group I and Group II hangars is the floating hangar door—and for good reason.

Frequently Asked Questions about Hangar Doors

  • What information do you need to provide a quote?

    Typically:
    • The building end-wall width
    • Required clear opening width
    • Required clear opening height
    • Door configuration (if known)
    • Any site-specific requirements such as wind speed, snow load, or building codes

    Full plans and elevations are ideal but not always necessary.

  • Can hangar doors be automated or motorized

    Yes. Most large doors use electric motor operators. Options include variable frequency drives (VFDs), safety sensors, remote controls, and automated interlocks. Manual operation is possible on smaller configurations.

  • Do hangar doors require stamped engineering drawings?

    Some building departments require drawings signed and sealed by a Professional Engineer (P.E.) licensed in the state of installation. Confirm this is included in your quote to avoid unexpected costs later.

  • How much space do door pockets or stacked leaves require?

    Bi-parting doors often reduce usable end-wall space because panels must pocket left and right. Floating or single-direction doors can minimize or eliminate pocket requirements, improving interior layout flexibility.

  • What are the maintenance requirements for aerodoors?

    Hangar doors require periodic lubrication, alignment checks, wheel/roller inspections, motor/drive system checks, and weather seal evaluations. Annual or semiannual preventative maintenance is strongly recommended and can be set up with our service division.

  • Does AeroDoor include the sheeting and insulation?

    No. Exterior covering, insulation, interior liner panels, perimeter trim, and flashing are excluded.

  • Can I install an AeroDoor on an existing building that has a different door like a hydraulic door or bifold sliding door at present?

    In most cases, AeroDoor installers can remove the existing door for you and install a new horizontal steel sliding system.

“We believe that directly participating in every phase of a hangar project removes middle men – for cost savings; streamlines communications – for speed and to minimize mistakes; and enables us to assign the very best people for every job – which helps in every way. These gained efficiencies are passed on directly to our clients for their benefit.”

7 Questions to ask a Hangar Door Manufacturer

Company Background
Always ask who owns the company and whether there have been any recent ownership changes. A long-standing reputation doesn’t mean much if the business was recently sold to new owners with different priorities. Be inquisitive and make sure you know exactly who you’re buying from.

Door Suitability
When evaluating manufacturers, request proof of experience—specifically at least 10 hangar doors larger than the one you intend to purchase. Ask for multiple references and photos of those projects, and be sure to follow up with the references directly. This helps you get unbiased feedback on the manufacturer, the installation quality, and the long-term door performance.

Engineering Blueprints
Stamped engineering drawings, signed by a P.E. licensed in the state of installation, are sometimes mandatory for hangar door permitting. If these aren’t included in your quote, you could face delays and a costly change order later— so confirm this upfront.

Door Layouts, Configurations and Design
Ask the manufacturer which door configuration best suits your building. The number of tracks, door leaves and motors can significantly affect construction costs, available hangar space and long-term operation. Compare different sliding hangar doors and their configurations before settling on a design. The right layout can save space, reduce costs and prevent operational problems later.

Door Installation
Only a tiny percentage of hangar door manufacturers have their own installation division. Most outsource installation to third-party contractors. Approach those situations with caution. Remember: a hangar door is only as good as its installation. The best design in the world can fail if installed incorrectly.

Warranty Coverage
Our hardware warranty extends a full 25 years, far exceeding the typical 1–5 year warranties offered by most manufacturers. This longevity reflects our confidence in the strength and reliability of our components—and our commitment to supporting clients long after installation.

Warranty Protocol
Research how warranty service is actually handled. Some manufacturers will not travel out of state to fix a problem unless all other options have been exhausted, leaving you with a door that is troublesome—or inoperable—in the meantime. Ask for evidence that their warranty includes dispatching an authorized technician within a reasonable timeframe.
