Hi, I'm planning on building a rental hangar at Red Wing Airport in Wisconsin. Right now I'm looking at a 40 X 40 foot structure, probably a Menards steel sided building. I currently have an RV7 but am looking at possibly building a Murphy Moose that would optionally go on floats. It would need a minimum of 12 feet if it were on floats. I think I would prefer the bifold liftstrap floatplane door, but am open to options on that. Could you please let me know what door or doors would work for this and could you also give me a "ballpark" number on price. Thanks, John Brunke (630) 697-2922

Hi there my name is Phil Gleason and I'm a research design for a float plane base hangar and would like your recommendations for a bifold liftstrap door size and type.

Probably interested in a bi-fold strap door for 16' wide with windows and possibly for 12' by 12's, but maybe something else for these smaller doors that I want windows in.

Can you pleas provide me a quote for two Bi Fold Doors for a seaplane base? One is 130' wide by 35' high and the other is 105 wide x 35' tall. These would be delivered to Oregon and it will be a choice between these two options. The us is an Aircraft Hangar on the lake, the loads are 120 wind and 25lb snow with engineering required to the 2015 Oregon Building code. The clear height of the door is 27' this is a lift strap door with bottom drive and electrical weather seal kit and side latches. I will need the loads for design of the building header and uprights on each option. Liner flashing and freight to site.

Looking at your extensive Schweiss Doors website I became highly interested in your bi-fold and hydraulic operated specialty doors for use at my East Coast Canadian seaplane base. I'll be needing three such doors, galvanized door frames about 40' x 20' to replace old wooden doors.

I am the technician installing two liftstrap Schweiss  seaplane base doors. They are 70'x22'. It has been very easy and straightforward due to your very detailed Schweiss manuals. These are the first of your doors I have installed although I have done s number of other type bifolds. Your door looks and feels superior and I prefer your strap method instead of cables. I hope I get the chance to work with you guys more in the future. Jaydors main strength is the skill of our installers and the drive to be the best. Family owned and operated all our lead techs have years of experience in the door and dock industry. I hope to hear from you. Sincerely, Nate Salotti

You previously quoted a Seaplane Base bifold door for me. At that time we were trying to get county approval for an attached hangar that proved too difficult. We have now awarded a contract for a detached waterfront pole building 44' wide by 40' deep with 14' sidewalls. The door will go on the 44' gable end. Construction should start in May or June depending upon weather. The builder wants me to wait until the posts are set to order the door. Would you please re-quote the Schweiss seaplane base door and advise me the best way to proceed given the builder wants me to hold off on ordering until he has the opening framed.

Needing a 42 0r 40x40 bifold seaplane base airplane hanger door built in W. Osspiee, NH., on a budget....what is the least expensive type?

Not sure if you are able to deliver to Hawaii, but if so please provide estimate for a bifold seaplane base door. Existing building has 8" CMU side walls with steel truss spanning the width of the door. I can provide structural drawings if needed. Please let me know if you need more information. Thank you.

21

I would like a quote for a 50'w X 14h bifold door. I am just shopping for the best option and obviously price is a consideration. This is a private hangar for a Cessna 185 amphibian seaplane base bifold door. Please correspond via email. tye@tempcohvac.com

Hi, I am looking at building a Lakes airpark hangar at Burnett Landing in WA state. A friend of mine just installed one of your bifold strap doors. I think my other neighbor is using yours also. I am looking at a 50'wide by 40' deep building. I was wondering if you have any plans. Another friend (has a Schweiss bifold with cable, he might just want a liftstrap conversion) he has plans for that size but I was curious. I am interested in either a loft or a second floor bifold door. How does that affect the door area.  The width door you advised on your airplane size chart for a 36' wingspan was right on the mark. I had heard that there is a jump in price above a certain size. I just bought a house that is too expensive so will need to keep the cost down as much as I can on a seaplane hangar, while trying not to regret going to small. 

23

I need to retrofit a bifold liftstrap door to an existing cinder block seaplane base hangar with a 36 ft wide by 12 ft tall opening. There is currently a steel roll up door there now that doesn't give me the headroom a Schweiss bifold door will. I would want some windows in the door. 

24

I have your self latching bifold door and would like to have remote opener installed. I am located at  in SC. Schweiss doors are ideal for my seaplane hangar use. Thank You look forward talking to you.
