TEMPORARY HANGARS, AIRPORT MAINTENANCE FACILITIES AND BAGGAGE HANDLING AREAS
Mahaffey's portable structures are ideal for temporary airport facilities, especially in locations where aircraft hangar space is at a premium or is non-existent. The modular design and quick installation times make these structures the ideal choice for covering aircraft in need of repair, airport maintenance vehicles, or for use as cargo sorting facilities.
Temporary Maintenance Operations Facilities
Because Mahaffey’s structures meet or exceed criteria of the International Building Codes (IBC), our mobile aircraft hangar structures can serve as semi-permanent Maintenance, Repair and Operations facilities. These aircraft hangars can be fitted with accessories such as sliding hangar doors, climate control, lights, fire suppression systems and just about any other option found in conventional airplane hangars.

Temporary Hangar Facilites
In terms of aircraft hangars, we can build a structure large enough to accommodate a single-aisle commercial airliner in as little as 5 days, no matter the location. Our fast response and set-up time allow repair crews to begin work immediately, meaning the aircraft can quickly return to its regular revenue-generating route.
Our portable structure system allows the owner to retain 100 percent of the structure's value because it can be relocated to a different site after its initial use. This is an important feature for owners constrained by shorter-term ground leases at their airport.
While our portable or semi-permanent airport building can be equipped with many different door options, we developed the Mahaffey Xtension™ Door, a fully retractable fabric door, which is best suited for aircraft and heavy equipment, and can be opened or closed in just THREE minutes.

Emergency Aircraft Repair Facilities
Because Mahaffey's structures are designed to be 100 percent portable, they are ideal for covering damaged aircraft in need of emergency repair. Mahaffey's line of structures can cover personal planes and even wide body aircraft.
Long-Term Airport Storage Facilities
Mahaffey's Mega Series and Tension Series (MTS) structures serve as long-term storage facilities. These structures meet and exceed all requirements of the International Building Code (IBC), which gives them the additional flexibility of being in use for long periods of time.
