Roll-Up Doors for Airplane Hangars

Aircraft facilities often include more than the primary aircraft door. Commercial roll-up sheet doors can serve appropriately sized equipment rooms, maintenance bays, vehicle access points, and support openings where a compact vertical closure is useful.

Confirm the opening is appropriate

A sheet door should be selected only when the required width, height, wind condition, and duty fall within the chosen product’s limits. Large aircraft openings may require a different door system entirely.

Treat wind design as a project requirement

Open sites and broad building faces can create demanding wind conditions. Obtain the project’s required design pressure and building criteria rather than selecting a door from location alone.

Coordinate clearances with building systems

Hangars may have structure, fire protection, lighting, or utilities near the header. Show the complete overhead condition when reviewing headroom and mounting.

Choose operation around visibility

Chain-hoist or electric operation should keep the user in a safe position with a clear view of the opening. Powered operation also requires appropriate controls and safety devices.
