A hydraulic hangar food is one of the most obvious choices for aircraft, agriculture, and commercial
industries. Rather than relying on faulty straps and cables, hydraulic hangar doors use cylinders to quickly open and close. Hydraulic hangar doors operate by flexing as they open, maximizing the headroom and tail clearance. They provide exceptional protection from weather and debris that may slip past other hangar doors. To better understand if a hydraulic hangar door is the right door for you, let’s break down what makes them the top choice for so many.
What Features Does a Hydraulic Hangar Door Have?
A hydraulic hangar door comes with many interesting features, some of which you can choose to further amplify its effectiveness. Hydraulic hangar doors come with floor lock pins, or cane bolts, at the bottom of the door. The amount of pins is dependent on the size of the hangar door and its wind loading requirements. However, it is worth noting that hydraulic hangar doors seal completely without the floor lock pins. The cylinders of the hydraulic system allow for the door to lock in place.
Hydraulic hangar doors are equipped with weather seals that tightly secure the interior of the hanger. These seals maximize energy efficiency by preventing heating/cooling from slipping through, as well as keep damaging weather from seeping inside.
Additional features for a hydraulic hangar door typically includes automatic opening and closing, but the way it is equipped to the door may vary based on manufacturer. WELL BILT’s Hydra-Eze Hydraulic Doors use pressure switches, plunger switches, and lever arm switches, as needed.
