T-Hangars
What are T-Hangars?
A T-hangar is a space-efficient storage unit designed specifically to fit the shape of a small aircraft. The layout resembles a âTâ when viewed from above, which allows the hangar to minimize wasted space while still protecting the entire aircraft. T-hangars are popular at many airports because they allow for a higher number of hangar units in any given space, making them ideal for aircraft owners who want private storage at a reasonable cost.
Cost of T-Hangars
The price of purchasing a T-hangar varies greatly depending on local demand, airport location, age, land lease terms, and features. For an old T-hangar unit in decent condition at rural airport, units might sell for as little as $40,000. However, T-hangar units at airports surrounding large urban centers (Seattle, Portland, etc.) can sell for upwards of $300,000. Like any real estate, the market price of hangars will fluctuate depending on demand, cost of materials, and labor costs. To learn about specific unit pricing, please contact us for more details.
