Aviation facility planning session
Aviation facilities demand wide, unobstructed space, big doors, and reliable protection. Steel hangars hit all three:
Rigid frame steel systems can provide 40–300+ ft clear spans with no interior columns, ideal for aircraft movement and storage.
Steel hangars accommodate sliding, bi-fold, and hydraulic doors, and can be engineered around your specific opening size and system.
Steel buildings resist weather, fire, pests, and heavy use, critical in exposed airfield environments.
Pre-engineered metal hangars can be delivered and erected faster than conventional construction, with more predictable costs.
You're not just buying a building — you're buying aircraft protection and operational efficiency.
Different aviation operations require different building designs. Explore the two main categories we specialize in.
Private GA hangars, fleet hangars, corporate aviation, small charter operations.
Maintenance bays, avionics and component shops, paint prep, storage.
Door-first thinking – We start with your required clear opening and door system, then design the building around it.
Attention to slab and interface details – Door rails, loads at door jambs, apron tie-ins — we coordinate those early.
Realistic expansion paths – We can design hangars to expand for more aircraft or to add attached maintenance or office areas later.
Transparent cost structure – We explain how door choice, span, and eave height affect your budget, so you're not surprised mid-design.
Aircraft types, quantity, maintenance needs, hangar vs shop usage.
Choose door system, required clear height/width.
Hangar bay, shop, and office layout refined.
Stamped drawings for hangar use and local codes.
By you or vetted subcontractor — we coordinate and plan around it.
Pre-engineered kit with members sized for big openings.
Frame, skin, doors set within a controlled sequence.
As a rule of thumb, single-engine aircraft typically need 40–60 ft spans, twins 60–80 ft, and corporate jets 80–120 ft; multiple aircraft or large fleets may require spans over 150 ft. We start with your fleet and design accordingly.
Yes. Pre-engineered steel hangars are standard in aviation; they can be designed to meet relevant building, fire, and aviation authority criteria.
Yes. Steel hangars are well-suited for lean-tos, attached office cores, or extended bays as needs grow.
