Hangar Construction

[514S]

Does anyone have an idea what it would cost to have a 40x40 Morton type building hangar constructed? Anyone have any experiences to share? Thanks in advance.

A friend of mine is having one put up, it's more along the lines of 50X40 with a 15 foot Wilson door. It's in the 65-70 range. Type of door makes a big difference, his will be bi-fold with remote.

When I built both of my hangars, I got a quote from Morton. Morton wanted almost 3 times what I ended up paying for my all steel hangars.
My last hangar is a 45'X50'. It cost me $12,400. I did the erection, and the cost didn't include the slab. But it was still a LOT more reasonable than Morton.

What's a Morton look like?

I've got a catalog from R and M but those are steel, alum siding hangars.

The cement pad is what is expensive, i assume about $3--5 a sq. ft.

I was quoted 60 X 60 X 14 with Bi-Fold turn key.
plus Land Lease
$ 56K.

Mel -

From whom did you buy the building?

Thanks

You may want to consider another option. I moved into my airpark home last year and am now doing all the prep work for my future hanger.

I plan on building my own air conditioned hanger with ICF blocks and using steel paneled SIP's for the roof. The plus is 250mph R-50 walls and R-30 roof with minimal trussing. It also makes it easier to do a majority of the work myself. I only have to make my slab 4-6 inches since the walls sit on footings, saving concrete. Plus the ICF walls are the form for the slab. I will be using Nudura ICF and Structall snap-n-lock panels for the roof. The roof panels will be 4x24, span an unsupported distance of 25ft and easily installed by 3 people. Here is a rough cost breakdown on how my projected costs are today.
For 40x42x12 hanger with 3-12 pitch.
$5500 for ICF blocks
$1500 for steel rebar and concrete for said blocks
$4000 for footings and slab ($3000 concrete and supplies + $1000 hired finish work)
$8000 for roof
$7000 for hydro-swing door

This cost is less than my neighbors hanger plus slab, not to mention the $18,000 he paid for a crew to erect it.

Don't get me wrong, "turnkey" is great, but I tend to want the best for the least. Wait a minute, that's why I am building an RV!

My first hangar (1990) was from Tyler building systems. The second time around (2003) I went with Red Dot Buildings. Both buildings are essentially the same. The price included all steel including steel siding, insulation, roof vent system and one personel door. I used a Hi-Fold door (40'X12') complete with automatic latch system delivered for about $3500.
Hangar (45'X50') $12,400
Door (40'X12') 3,500
Slab 6,750

I will be watching Wade's progress closely, and stealing every good idea he has in the process for when I am ready to build mine (at the same airpark...)!
