Wide Body Wing Dock.

A fully customised wing docking system engineered around the aircraft fleet, hangar environment and maintenance requirements.

01 Overview

NIJL Wide Body Wing Docks are developed as project-specific access systems for heavy maintenance operations, providing safe and efficient working access across the wing and surrounding aircraft areas.

Each dock is engineered around the customer’s aircraft types, maintenance programme, hangar layout and preferred working methods. Platform heights, floor geometry, access routes, handrails and supporting systems can all be configured to create the most practical working environment around the aircraft.

Depending on the application, the system can incorporate fixed or height-adjustable platforms, flat, stepped or sloped working floors, and adjustable floor sections that follow the changing profile of the wing and fuselage.

From individual wing platforms to fully integrated multi-section docking systems, each solution is developed to provide the required access while making efficient use of hangar space and supporting repeatable heavy maintenance operations.
