Efficient and Durable Metal Buildings for Hangars and Aviation
Ostro Steel Structures specializes in creating highly efficient and durable metal buildings ideally suited for aviation and hangar applications. Our structures are 100% clear-span, making them ideal for accommodating large aircraft and maintenance equipment. The clear-span design eliminates interior columns, providing unobstructed space for aircraft storage and maintenance while maximizing the usability of the hangar’s interior.
Our metal buildings are designed to withstand all types of weather conditions and offer unmatched durability. The use of high-quality steel materials and advanced coatings ensures that the structures are resistant to corrosion, reducing the need for frequent maintenance. According to industry reports, steel buildings have a lifespan that can exceed 50 years with minimal upkeep, making them a long-term investment for aviation facilities.
In addition to durability, our hangar designs are highly customizable. Clients can select from various roof pitches, door configurations, and additional features to meet their specific requirements. For example, unlike most metal building manufacturers, our unique designs allow us to engineer framing for hangar doors systems in the sidewall of a metal building system, not just the gable ends. This flexibility ensures that each hangar is tailored to support its intended use, whether for private jets, helicopters, or small aircraft, providing the perfect balance between functionality and aesthetics.
Customizable Architectural Facades and Aesthetics
One of the standout features of Ostro Steel Structures is the ability to support a wide array of architectural facades, allowing our metal buildings to blend seamlessly with any surrounding environment. In addition to our standard purlin-bearing rib (“PBR”) paneling with baked-on, siliconized polyester coatings in a wide variety of color choices, our designs can accommodate traditional masonry, commercial glass, curtain wall systems, insulated metal paneling, aluminum composite material (ACM) panels, and cutting-edge fiber cement designs. Ostro Steel Structures also offers a standing seam roof system to boost durability, longevity and weather protection to the next level. Rollformed in-house by our craftsmen using our Ostro-3000 panel profile in thicker 24ga steel, this upgraded system comprises a series of high-strength, 3” trapezoidal rib panels that are permanently and mechanically interlocked both with each other and to a system of field-installed roofing clips. This versatility enables us to create structures that not only serve their functional purposes but also enhance the overall aesthetic of the area.
Clients often seek to incorporate distinctive architectural elements into their hangar designs to reflect their brand identity or adhere to specific architectural themes. At Ostro Steel Structures, we understand the importance of these elements and work closely with our clients to achieve their vision. Our ability to integrate various exterior finishes and façade treatments ensures that each building stands out while providing excellent protection and insulation.
Entrance awnings, which can be custom-designed and fabricated in-house, offer additional opportunities for personalization. These awnings not only enhance the building’s visual appeal but also provide practical benefits such as shelter from the elements for personnel and visitors. In the past, we’ve even plasma cut custom steel signage for our clients to show off, for example, their Georgia Bulldog pride or their love of Cessna aircraft. By combining functionality with design, Ostro’s custom façades contribute to the creation of aviation facilities that are both striking and practical.
