Engineering in Wood: Custom Hydraulic Hangar Door, Vilnius Airport (Kukucha)

Unique Architectural Design: A first-of-its-kind solid wood structural door with polycarbonate façade, delivering exceptional visual identity without compromising aviation-grade performance.

Polycarbonate Façade Panel System: High-performance panels allow natural daylight into the hangar, reducing artificial lighting needs and creating a rarely seen transparent architectural look.

Solid Wood Load-Bearing Structure: Precision-engineered timber frame — sustainable, thermally efficient and protected for long-term durability in demanding aviation environments.

Advanced Hydraulic Lifting System: Smooth, precise movement of the full 16,500 x 6,700 mm door, folding compactly to maximise usable height and interior hangar space.

Weather & Climate Resistance: Engineered for Baltic conditions, including wind load, cold, temperature fluctuations, moisture and precipitation typical of the Vilnius region.

Thermal & Acoustic Properties: Wood-and-polycarbonate construction provides effective thermal buffering and sound insulation for a controlled working environment.

Compact Folding: Minimal bulk when open, preserving interior space and keeping the exterior façade clean and unobstructed.
