Tail doors are located in the center of the hangar above
biparting horizontal rolling doors. The tail door will
provide for the tail clearance of larger aircraft into a
lower hangar profile. For ease of operation the tail
door should be motor operated. There are several types
of tail doors and carefui consideration needs to be
given to the functional requirements of the hangar
before a tail door is selected.

Biparting doors have a number of leaves that divide in
the center. To open, half of the door leaves roll to the
left and the other half to the right. Each leaf is
limited in travel as noted by the rail positions on the
drawing at the left. When the doors are motor operated
the power leaves are the two center leaves. The power
leaves movethetrailing leaves by using avarietyof
available gathering devicesto position ail the leaves. |

Unidirectional doors can have any number of leaves, with
ail the door leaves traveling in one direction to open
or close the opening. Each leaf is limited in travel, as
noted bythe rail positions in the drawing atthe left.
When the door system is motor operated, the power leaf
is in the leading leaf. The power leaf moves thetrailing
leaves to the open or closed position by many different
types of gathering devices, depending on the height and
weight of the leaves. |

|
Independent door leaf operations can have any number of
leaves. Because the rails go the full width of the
opening, as outlined in the drawing at the left, each
leaf can move to any position along the rail.' This type
of door system provides the most flexible use of a
hangar and allows fast access to any portion of the
hangar opening. Each leaf has its own motor operating
system and moves independently of the other leaves. |
|
 |
Group operating doors can be any number of leaves. They
are interconnected to each otherand can be opened from
either direction.The leaves can also be grouped next to
each other and moved as a group to stack anyplace along
the hangar door opening. As shown on the drawing ail
rails go the full width of the opening. The motor
operators are located in each end leaf and are connected
to the floating group in between.
