Product Description
Our heavy duty upward acting hangar door is a vertical lift system designed for aircraft hangars and industrial facilities where maximum overhead clearance and unrestricted floor space are critical. Available in panel-by-panel (sectional) or one-piece (solid leaf) construction, this vertical lift aircraft hangar door rises straight upward along vertical tracks, storing the door above the opening with zero floor or side-wall intrusion.
Constructed from heavy-gauge galvanized steel with reinforced structural frames, the door supports clear opening widths up to 60 meters and heights up to 30 meters. The system is balanced using heavy-duty counterweights or high-cycle torsion springs, ensuring effortless manual operation even under power failure conditions.
Width up to 60m Height up to 30m Vertical Lift Counterweight Balanced
Vertical lift design requires no floor tracks, side-wall clearance, or overhead hanging obstructions. The entire door stacks compactly above the opening, maximizing usable floor space for aircraft and equipment.
Heavy-duty counterweight or high-cycle torsion spring systems precisely balance door weight, reducing motor load and enabling smooth, effortless manual operation during power outages.
Sectional construction allows individual panel replacement without dismantling the entire door. Each panel can be independently serviced, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.
Robust EPDM sealing system with inter-panel compression seals and bottom weather barriers provides superior protection against wind-driven rain, dust, and thermal loss.

Typical ApplicationsLarge aircraft maintenance hangars, fighter jet shelters, and helicopter storage facilities.
Distribution centers with tall ceiling heights requiring full vertical clearance for loading operations.
Aircraft assembly plants, component testing facilities, and paint booths requiring controlled environments.
- Construction: Sectional (panel-by-panel) or one-piece solid leaf
- Balancing: Counterweight or torsion spring — site-specific selection
- Insulation: PU foam, mineral wool, or honeycomb core options
- Surface Finishing: Hot-dip galvanized, powder coating, or PVDF coatings
- Windows: Observation windows with tempered glass (single or double-glazed)
- Personnel Doors: Integrated walk-through doors within the main door panel
Vertical lift doors require zero side-wall clearance and no floor tracks, making them ideal for hangars with limited side space or where floor obstructions cannot be tolerated. They also provide maximum overhead clearance with no door panels intruding into the working area when open.
Counterweights are attached to the door via steel cables passing over overhead sheaves. The total counterweight mass is precisely calculated to match the door's weight, effectively making the door "weightless" for the motor—reducing energy consumption and enabling manual operation.
Yes, our upward acting hangar doors can be engineered with additional structural reinforcing, wind locks, and upgraded tracking systems to meet hurricane and cyclone zone requirements, including Miami-Dade County and TAS compliance.
With proper maintenance, our vertical lift hangar doors are designed for a minimum service life of 30+ years. All structural steel components are hot-dip galvanized, and all moving parts are sealed for long-term durability.
