Strong industrial doors for aviation and maritime sectors

The conditions in the aviation and maritime sectors are extreme. Strong winds, saltwater exposure, and intensive use demand doors that can withstand the toughest environments. At Salco, we understand these challenges.

That’s why we supply robust, custom-made doors designed to endure even the most demanding conditions. From large sliding hangar doors to high-speed doors and overhead doors—reliable, durable, and available worldwide through our extensive dealer network.

Sliding hangar doors: Maximum access and wind resistance

Sliding doors are the perfect solution for aircraft and ship hangars. They are large, flexible, and resistant to extreme weather conditions. The Salco HD-1420 sliding hangar door opens and closes effortlessly, even under heavy wind loads. Thanks to strong aluminium profiles and precise wind load calculations, this door remains reliable in any location.

Each sliding door is fully custom-made. Dimensions, configurations, and options such as glass panels and electric operation are tailored to the specific requirements. This ensures optimal functionality and ease of use. Our high-quality rail systems and durable seals guarantee a long lifespan, even in humid and saline environments.

Large high-speed doors: Speed and weather resistance

Fast access is crucial in workshops and storage facilities. Our large high-speed doors open and close within seconds, minimising exposure to extreme weather conditions. They are ideal for airports and maritime environments where efficiency is key.
