Project Type: Rolling Door Systems
Industries: Aviation
Project Name: Jet Aviation and Gulfstream
Project Location: Van Nuys, CA
This unique project consists of two hangars attached by a common wall. The total square feet of the two hangars is in excess of 70,000 square feet and boast two sets of Rolling Hangar Doors which are configured to a Floating Group Hangar Door System. These Floating Group Systems rely on a lead-lag door panel where there are two operators on the leading hangar door panel and one on the trailing hangar door. Many companies are turning to the floating group system to solve the issue of pocketing of the hangar doors. These clients realize that airport property is in high demand and that putting in track compartments is a waste of valuable real estate. They also see the ease of operation, unlike a true floating system where each panel moves on its own and requires the panel to be jogged into place each time the system is moved. Both offer the same overall opening however, the floating group comes at a reduced price as well because you don’t require the number of operators or drives.
Jet Aviation will be opening late summer of 2019 and we look forward to the next project.
