A Diamond door is a great choice for your aircraft hangar.
Here’s a few reasons why.
Get a Larger Door Opening.
Bifold doors provide a clear opening that is wider and taller than what is possible with an overhead door. In addition, because they are mounted to the exterior of the building, the self-supporting header allows you to install the door above your building’s roofline.
Make Your Door Easier to Use.
A Diamond door makes it easier to access your building. Compared to sliding doors that are frequently difficult to move, bifold doors open at the push of a button. Add the remote opener and autolock package to make it even simpler.
Spend Less Time on Door Maintenance.
Designed with fewer moving parts and built from quality materials, you can expect to spend less time on maintenance with a Diamond bifold door. Instead, you can spend more time on what matters to you. Diamond doors are low maintenance and reliable.
Designed for Easy Installation.
We deliver your door directly to your building site – pre-assembled and ready for installation. And if you need someone to handle the install for you, we have a wide network of great door installers across North America.
Diamond Doors is a fantastic company with exceptional customer service. The staff was friendly and helpful throughout the process, and the quality of their work was amazing. I highly recommend them for anyone in need of door installation or replacement.

We’ve had our door installed for a few months now and it has worked flawlessly. It opens fast, quietly and smooth. Best hangar door out there for the money!

I was very happy with all aspects of my Diamond door. Build quality and dimensions were perfect. Instructions were easy to follow. If I build another hangar sometime down the road I’ll will be giving you guys a call.

What is all included in the price of a Diamond door?
We include all the hardware you need to have your door installed and operational. This ensures you don’t have to spend extra time and budget looking for the right parts. For optional door components, like trims and cladding, we provide a complete list of exactly what you’ll need.
How safe is a Diamond door?
Diamond Doors implements multiple safety features on every door. These features include an electric brake that prevents the door from falling in the event of a power failure, a 10x cable safety factor, and photoeyes that prevent door closure if anything is in the path of the door.
Why choose lift cables over other options?
Our lift cables offer significant advantages over other lifting systems, including other lift cable styles. Our unique driveline eliminates cable tangling, overlapping, and rubbing, which are the most common causes of cable failure.

Aircraft Hangar Doors Offer Flexibility and Convenience
Jared Jestice lives in Fulton County, Arkansas, surrounded by the foothills of the Ozark Mountains. He and his family own and operate Jestice Contracting, a construction company specializing in concrete and installing steel structures. “That’s on the side,” says Jared with a smile. “Flying airplanes is first.”
As far back as he can remember, Jared’s passion has been flight. His father was a pilot before Jared was born, and Jared’s first memory is of being in an airplane. “And so, at that point, I was already ruined,” he says, talking of his love for aviation.
It’s a passion that runs in the family. With five family members that fly, their private airstrip is a busy place. Family flights to a little place 30 miles west of the farm are a fun way to spend a Saturday or Sunday morning. Jared also spends time competing with other pilots in competitions such as ArkanSTOL, an annual flying competition that combines precision flying with speed.
“When I got the flying dream, I had to pursue it,” says Jared. “That came with buying an airplane and building a hangar for it.”
The Project
The hangar is tucked at the back of the property, large enough to hold Jared’s Kitfox and the rest of the family aircraft, including a 1945 Taylorcraft, 701 Zenith, 1947 Chief, and 1948 Piper Vagabond. Friends of the family sometimes make use of the hangar as well.
Jared had a few requirements for his aircraft hangar door. Considering the busyness of the airstrip, convenience and ease of operation were foremost. Reliability and durability were two other equally important factors to consider.
Jared considered several door types for his aircraft hangar, including a hydraulic hangar door and sliding doors. However, sliding doors took up too much space to the side of the building, and a hydraulic door “swing[s] out before it goes up,” Jared says. “If there’s an airplane that’s parked too close that could be very expensive.” He added that “a bifold made the most sense and uses up the least amount of space.”
He ordered two doors – identical bifold doors at 45 feet wide and 13 feet tall.
There were several other advantages to a Diamond bifold door that made it an easy choice for Jared’s hangar. Easy installation was one of them.
The Experience
Working in construction, Jared has had experience installing commercial overhead doors. Still, he was a little bit apprehensive about mounting a Diamond bifold door. It was his first bifold hangar door installation, and the size alone can be intimidating.
But installing his first Diamond Door was simpler than it appeared. “We picked it up with a telehandler and had it hung in 30 minutes. It was so easy,” says Jared.
“Customer service with Diamond Doors was great,” he added. “When we inquired about purchasing one, they told us everything we needed to do to get the building ready and what kind of support system we needed to hang the door. It was easy to go forward from there.”
Overall, Jared is very satisfied with his aircraft hangar doors. When asked, he says “We’ve put up a lot of steel buildings, different kinds. We’ve put up hangars, machine shops, and mechanic shops. If they need a door… I would recommend a Diamond door.”
Located in southern Manitoba and coming from a background of aviation, Diamond Doors has built many strong relationships in the aviation industry. Our rich history helps us understand the needs of pilots across North America and provide door solutions for any building type.
