Aircraft hangar fire protection
Protecting aircraft and ensuring the safety of personnel can present unique challenges for aircraft owners and hangar operators.
Hangars are often used for aircraft storage and maintenance, and the aircraft fuel tanks are usually empty. However, enough highly flammable fuel may remain to pose the risk of a fuel spill, and in the case of larger aircraft, the quantity may be significant.
Aircraft oil and maintenance equipment can be a combustible combination, and prompt detection and suppression of flames is crucial.
Armstrong Priestley fire suppression systems for aircraft hangars
We design, fabricate, and install automatic fire sprinkler systems that are activated by increases in temperature. Our fire protection engineers also offer a complete maintenance and service package to our hangar owners.

Automatic sprinklers for aircraft hangar fire protection
We work across all commercial and domestic sectors, and many of our clients choose water mist sprinklers to detect and suppress fire. However, this type of fire suppression agent is not suitable for all environments; we offer several alternatives.
Our sprinkler systems can be designed to use any of the following:
- Inert gas
- Chemical gas
- Aerosol firefighting foam
- Water mist
- Carbon dioxide
Our fire protection expertise enables us to specify the correct fire suppression agent for an aircraft hangar fire.

The environmental risks of fire sprinkler systems
Certain types of fire suppression foam can lead to environmental contamination.
However, unlike many types of high-expansion foam, the chemical and foam fire suppression systems we use are non-toxic and will not harm the environment, even if the foam discharge escapes from the hangar.
Our foam systems and fire suppression agents are non-corrosive and will not damage aircraft or other equipment in the hangar.
