REIDsteel Aircraft Hangar Doors - About Us

We have been designing, manufacturing and building aircraft hangars and doors since our first efforts for Louis Blériot in 1923.

builds it; then you find another company designs the doors and someone else builds them. This interface between hangar and door, which is the most important thing in the operation of the hangar, gives scope for all kinds of error, misfit, argument and dispute. Fundamentally that is the difference between REIDsteel and our competitors, as we design, manufacture and install both the hangar and the doors providing you with a seemless product and service and avoiding any unnecessary errors.

This means that we design and construct all aspects of the hangar and its doors including the tolerances, deflections, seals, rails, guides, motors, controls, flashing lights and hooters in addition to the structural frames, the bracing and the cladding.

We don't only handle new construction as we are frequently asked to replace malfunctioning doors, including sometimes even old war time ones, but more often they are the newish concertina doors or bifold doors made by others, where the operator has exhausted all efforts to make his existing doors work properly and has approached us for a replacement or repair.

So in essence we can safely assure you that the buck stops with REIDsteel - which is your guarantee that your doors will give you, long trouble free, low maintenance service.
