Airport Operations · Plane Hangars
Painting and coatings for plane hangars.
Hangars are large steel buildings with tall walls, exposed structure and slabs that have to take aircraft, tugs, fuel and hydraulic fluid. McAllister Painting prepares, paints and coats exposed steel, metal wall panels, hangar doors, interior walls and the slab itself, with the work scheduled around work scheduled around aircraft movements, with lift work sequenced bay by bay.

What the work involves
What plane hangars need from a painting contractor.
Floor coatings are specified for chemical resistance and the loads aircraft and tugs put on the slab.
Like every McAllister project, plane hangars work runs through planning, preparation, application and quality control. The planning stage settles access, hours, containment and products with you or the general contractor. Preparation is matched to each substrate so the finish has something sound to hold on to. Application follows the product data sheet and the specification, and every area is checked before it is handed back.
McAllister works as a subcontractor to general contractors on new construction and build-outs, and directly for owners and facility managers on buildings that are already in use, across Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and Tennessee.

Airport Operations
Other airport operations facilities.
Airports
Airports combine public concourses, back-of-house operations and airside structures that each carry their own finish, safety and security requirements.
Airport Terminals
Terminals are high-traffic public buildings where the finish has to look sharp, clean easily and go on without closing the concourse.
