Overview:
If our name sounds familiar, it is because our company has a long and varied history in the aircraft hangar and hangar door business. We are the original developer of the Electric Bi-Fold Door System and are known throughout the general aviation industry for our high-quality, state-of-the-art products and superior services.
From our corporate headquarters in Harvard, Illinois, we design and fabricate general aviation facilities for the smallest single-engine aircraft to large corporate facilities for business jets.
By the numbers alone, we have years experience in the business and an estimated 16,000 hangar units in operation in all 50 states and some Canadian provinces.
Today, Erect-A-Tube enjoys a hard-won reputation as an industry innovator, always striving to develop better aircraft hangars and related door equipment.
We’re committed to our customers as well as the airport and aviation industry. No other hangar manufacturer invests money back into the industry like we do. Half of our marketing dollars are spent supporting state aviation conferences, national and regional efforts of the American Association of Airport Executives (AAAE), Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA), Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) and FAA regional events.
With Erect-A-Tube, Inc. as your single-source manufacturer for both hangars and hangar door systems, you can be confident that both will work together perfectly.

Erect-A-Tube, Inc. offers six different models of Nested T-hangars that are exclusively designed to provide long, dependable life. However, the most popular models are our Model N51-42 and Model N54-42. Since the majority of the General Aviation Market is single-engine aircraft and light twin-engine aircraft, these two models comfortably house these classes of aircraft.

Standard Tee Hangars are sometimes called "Stacked" because the hangar structure is narrower and longer than the nested style. The unit depth is equal to the building width and the units are stacked together. The crucial dimension on any t-hangar is the wing depth. The wing depth on a Standard Tee hangar is the tail depth on the adjacent unit. (i.e. Erect-A-Tube's model S36-42 has a minimum wing depth of 18'0" creating a unit depth of 36'0"). Therefore, the Standard Tee Hangar design offers 5% additional storage space than its nested counterpart.
