AeroDoors works closely with architects and designers to construct and create the perfect hanger doors for clients’ purposes.
The metal construction industry is standing at the intersection of a regulatory unlock and an unprecedented aviation boom. We aren’t just building taller; we are building more, and we are building bigger than ever before.
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.
One of the most effective ways to maximize project efficiency — and fit more hangars on a given site — is by rethinking how the hangar door is configured.
Personnel doors provide convenient or emergency egress from the hangar to the flight line and can be installed in a door leaf, or pocket space.
Wheels and bearings are critical components on a bottom rolling hangar door. They carry the weight of the door and must move freely. A door that is difficult to move will wear down drive components.
Hangar door windows or translucent wall panels are a great way to add aesthetic flare to your building while allowing natural light to penetrate the hangar. You have a limitless choice of window designs to choose from…
How can the sealability be improved on a hangar door? We can add a floating weather seal across the top of the door. This will provide better weather seal coverage between the top of the door and the building when the roof deflects upwards.
When designing or refurbishing a large door for a hangar, it’s strongly advisable to include a drainage system on each side of the bottom tracks for rainwater to run off. Inadequate drainage means ASCE rail will corrode in stagnant rainwater.
How considerations such as the number of tracks, or number of door leaves and motors that will impact your building design, budget costs, impact the success or failure of the door when people begin using it day to day.
When we use the terms wind or live load deflection in horizontal rolling hangar doors we’re talking about how many inches of vertical movement (+/-) a door can tolerate from wind or snow.
With so many different styles of hangar door to choose from, we decided it would be helpful to separate those which operate horizontally and those vertically.
There are two models of door opener on the market, the difference between them is how they move the door, how much space is required, functionality features and price.

Outriggers allow you to build a new bigger frame around the existing opening for larger aircraft and to maximize accessibility.
The most important function of any hangar construction project is the safe and easy way for airplanes to enter and exit and protect the inside when the door is closed. No matter what the weather conditions are the doors must be safe to operate.
The primary goal is to stop the movement of the hangar door before it comes in to contact with an aircraft, a tug, or something else.
The junction box should be installed in the top corner, next to where the hangar door top track system ends. Watch the video.
Hangar door wheels shall be of steel plate or cast steel, having a minimum tread diameter as required for the actual wheel loading.
The beauty of a bottom rolling door is there’s so many different ways that they can operate. There’s a design to suit almost every set of circumstances.
Each electric motor is designed around the specifications of the hangar door, which ensures key performance attributes such as traction and horse power are met.
If you’re like most, you rarely pause to consider any impact the choice of door has on the functionality of the building. Colors, architectural detail and landscaping all contribute to a building…
Our safety training and Covid 19 protocols will continue to evolve as this virus develops and we learn more.
Before hangar construction, you must assess the current state of your airport or airpark, how well it operates, and the viability of new hangar construction.
