HD-1420 Wind-resistant hangar doors

Aluminium sliding door for the largest openings

Are you looking for a sliding door system for a hangar, aircraft hangar, or another large building? The HD-1420 hangar door by Salco combines customisation, durability, and safety. These sliding doors are made from lightweight aluminium, making them ideal for aviation, shipbuilding, and commercial buildings with large openings.

Our hangar doors are calculated according to Dutch and European standards, including NEN-EN 1991-1-4 for wind load and EN-13241 for the safety and performance of industrial doors.

Designed to handle wind load and meet regulations

Tall doors, such as the HD-1420, are exposed to significant wind loads, especially in open and coastal areas. At Salco, we ensure every sliding door is engineered based on the wind load (wind zone), building height, and consequence class of your project. This guarantees that our hangar doors are safe and reliable for years of worry-free use.

Learn more about how we calculate wind loads on our dedicated page: Wind load on Salco doors.

Lightweight and low-maintenance

The HD-1420 hangar door is made from high-quality aluminium. Aluminium does not rust like regular steel and is exceptionally resistant to corrosion. This makes it a durable choice, even in the most challenging conditions.

These sliding doors are ideal for industrial and maritime environments. Their lightweight design reduces wear on rails and components, helping to lower maintenance costs while extending the door's lifespan.

Aesthetic and custom: your door, your style

The HD-1420 sliding doors are fully custom made. The aluminium doors are available in any colour, thanks to our high-quality powder coating. This durable finish not only provides a professional appearance but also offers extra protection.

You can also choose an aesthetic panel design, with sections filled with materials such as sandwich panels or glass. This allows the sliding door system to seamlessly integrate into your building's design.

Flexible and user-friendly

The sliding doors are easy to operate. They come with a smooth under- or top-rolling rail system. For under-rolling systems, we use Magnelis steel rails, a material renowned for its excellent corrosion resistance.

The bottom-rail is recessed into the floor, ensuring no obstacles for vehicles such as forklifts. The door's weight rests entirely on the floor, meaning the building structure is not burdened by the door's weight.

Automatic opening and closing

For added convenience, the doors can be equipped with electric operation. This enables quick and efficient opening and closing. Options such as remote control, sensors, or central control systems are also available. With these smart features and user-friendly design, the HD-1420 is ideal for busy environments where speed, durability, and practicality are essential.

Perfect for various applications

The HD-1420 hangar doors are perfect for a range of applications, including:

  • Aircraft hangars: wide and tall doors for maximum accessibility
  • Shipyards: resistant to corrosion and harsh weather conditions
  • Commercial buildings: flexible and aesthetically adaptable for large openings
