Product Description
Product Overview
The 50×60×18 Aircraft Hangar Kit is a reliable Canadian made metal hangar designed for private pilots and aviation properties that need dependable aircraft shelter, secure storage, and year round protection. Built with high strength Canadian steel, this hangar offers clear-span interior space with no interior posts, making it suitable for small aircraft, bush planes, light helicopters, and aviation equipment.
Manufactured in Barrie, Ontario, every hangar is engineered by our Canadian engineering team to meet the National Building Code of Canada along with regional snow and wind load requirements. Certified stamped structural and foundation drawings are included to support the permitting process and to help with hangar door planning and installation.
This size is ideal for private airstrips, hobby pilots, municipal airfields, and rural aviation operations that need dependable aircraft storage.

Why This Size Works
The 50 foot clear-span width supports comfortable aircraft entry and exit while providing room for additional aviation equipment. The 60 foot depth allows proper aircraft positioning, tool storage, and workspace. The 18 foot wall height accommodates a wide range of hangar door systems including bi-fold, hydraulic, and sliding doors.
This size works well for properties that need dependable aircraft shelter without requiring commercial hangar capacity.
Engineering and Durability
This hangar is Canadian engineered using high strength Canadian steel. The rigid I beam frame is designed to withstand aviation site conditions including wind gust exposure and snow loads common across Canada. The 26 gauge corrugated steel exterior provides long term protection from moisture, temperature swings, UV exposure, and weather. Insulation up to R 60 is available for customers who want climate control for aircraft maintenance or cold-weather operations.
