Outdoor Hanger Curtains
AKON understands the requirements of curtains used for aircraft hangars. This aircraft hangar curtain covers large openings and can be operated quickly with simple drop cords. The high quality Vinyl material used to fabricate the aircraft hangar partitions ensure they provide protection from the elements. They also protect the inside of the aircraft hangar and at a fraction of the cost of operable fixed doors.
Indoor Hanger Curtains
Dividing space inside aircraft hangers using our aircraft hanger divider curtains is a quick way to make work zones or privacy areas. These very large hanger curtains are made in any size up to 100' tall and come in many different colors to match your company colors. They can be static in position or roll side to side for complete access when using our industrial curtain track.
Aircraft Hangar Containment
Custom Made Per Application
The curtains are completely custom made to fit any size and shape. There are also plenty of choices when it comes to curtain colors.

Keep the Weather Out
Unmatched Performance
So far on the market there are no hangar curtains competitively priced that are listed as outdoor super duty curtains for windy areas, though a lot claim this. These inferior curtains have grommets that will rip out as they are not properly reinforced with webbing. AKON super heavy duty aircraft hangar curtains are designed based on our experiences with how curtains have failed in the field from our years of experience. We have developed a wind blocking curtain that takes the stress off of the curtain material and puts it back on the hardware to relieve tearing and curtain failure.
Outdoor Curtain Strength
This super heavy duty outdoor curtain features an optional mesh section in the middle to allow some wind to blow through to reduce the stress on the curtain. The mesh also has an optional back flap to help control free-flowing breeze when it is not windy out.
We also triple stitch sew heavy duty webbing straps vertically every 5 feet the full length of the curtain from the roller hooks all the way down to the anchor plates. This takes the majority of the stress off of the curtain and places it on the hardware at the top and the bottom of the curtain. The quad steel wheel rollers are each rated for 125 pounds of force. Anchor plates at the bottom are bolted into your concrete and also have exceptional strength for wind loads.
