Airplane Hangar

Orton Companies builds airplane hangars in Minnesota for private aircraft, flight schools, and airport-adjacent shops. We design post-frame and steel hangars with door systems, clear spans, and snow-load roofs that work on Minnesota airfields.

Who we build this for

Aircraft owners, flying clubs, and aviation businesses that need a hangar built by a contractor who understands door width, tail height, and airport district rules.

What we offer

• Hydraulic, bi-fold, or sliding hangar door packages
• Clear spans for wingspan and taxi
• Shop, office, and parts rooms along the side wall
• Insulation options for heated hangars
• Apron and drainage coordination
• Finishes that meet airport aesthetic guidelines

How we build it

Door system and wingspan lock the structure. We coordinate with airport layout and Minnesota snow so the hangar opens on the days you actually want to fly.

The process

1. 01

   Your site and how you will use it

   Orton Companies walks the property, maps access, drainage, and utilities, and locks how you will use the building so it fits Minnesota code and your daily work.

2. 02

   Design and materials

   We produce a clear layout, how the building will look from the street, and a steel-and-timber package sized for snow load, wind, and the way you will actually use the space.

3. 03

   Construction

   A licensed crew sets posts or frame, encloses the shell, and finishes doors, roof, and interiors on a schedule built for Minnesota seasons.

4. 04

   Walkthrough

   You walk the finished building with us, we close the punch list, and you get a space ready for equipment, animals, customers, or living — from the same team that designed it.
