Hangar Types at Higginsville Airport
Private Owner Box Hangars
Higginsville's 3,200-foot runway is ideal for light single-engine aircraft. Private box hangars (40×40 to 50×55 feet) provide secure storage with room for maintenance tools and equipment. Our clear-span Red Iron design maximizes usable floor space without columns.
Workshop & Maintenance Hangars
Owner-performed maintenance is common at smaller airports like Higginsville. We engineer hangars with workshop areas, electrical service, adequate lighting, and ventilation for aircraft work. Higher sidewalls provide room for engine hoists and work platforms.
Multi-Aircraft Storage
Flying partnerships or owners with multiple light aircraft can benefit from larger hangar configurations (50×60 to 60×80). These provide economical shared storage with wide doors for easy aircraft access.
