Craneway doors, and their associated load doors, are designed to close off
overhead crane openings and, when open, to permit the crane and its load to
pass from one side of the opening to the other. The craneway door is custom
designed (click here for drawing details) to fit around the crane rail and
its electrification system, and is hinged to swing up allowing the crane to
pass under it. Load doors are either swing or slide type.

Tail doors, and their associated sliding hangar doors, are designed to close
off aircraft tail openings and, when open, to permit aircraft to pass into
the hangar. The tail door allows the hangar to accommodate aircraft with
tails higher than the height of the sliding hangar door. The functions of
the tail door are similar to that of the craneway door. The tail door swings
up allowing proper clearance for the tail of the aircraft.
