SkyLockr concept enclosure around a helicopter inside a hangar
01 / Between flights

The engine stops.
The exposure
doesn’t.

Even inside a hangar, your helicopter remains exposed to humidity, dust, and the people and aircraft moving around it.

Between flights

SkyLockr is being developed
to protect the aircraft between flights.

Over time, those conditions can affect appearance, condition, maintenance and ownership cost.

02 / A dedicated micro-environment

A better environment.
Inside your hangar.

SkyLockr creates a dedicated storage environment around your helicopter between flights.

Think of it as a dedicated environment for the aircraft inside your existing hangar, helping protect it from humidity, dust and the surrounding hangar environment.

A hangar stores the aircraft.
SkyLockr is designed to manage the environment immediately around it.

An inflatable enclosure, engineered internal support structure and active humidity management work together around the aircraft, without permanent hangar modifications.

Dedicated to the aircraft

Designed around the helicopter rather than trying to control the entire hangar.

Straightforward setup

Designed without permanent hangar modifications.

Compact when not required

Compact pack-down and pressure-regulated inflation.

03 / Aircraft preservation

Protect more
than appearance.
Protect the asset.

SkyLockr is designed to help preserve aircraft condition between flights by creating a more controlled storage environment around the helicopter.

Better cared for today.
Better presented tomorrow.

04 / Active humidity management

Care begins
with the air.

Desiccant rotor dehumidification removes moisture to help manage the storage environment and reduce exposure to conditions that contribute to corrosion.

Instead of relying only on the wider hangar environment, SkyLockr manages the smaller environment directly around the aircraft.

Preserve condition where the aircraft spends most of its time.

05 / Connected care

It doesn’t just protect the aircraft.
It records how it was cared for.

SkyLockr is being developed as a connected system that gives owners visibility into the aircraft’s storage environment between flights.

Protection you can see.
Care you can document.
Features and integrations are in development.
01

Storage environment

Conditions and time inside SkyLockr.

02

System visibility

Status, diagnostics and alerts.

03

Remote monitoring

Environmental history, remote visibility and planned camera access to the aircraft.

04

Connected records

06 / Condition & value

The way it’s kept
is part of its story.

SkyLockr is designed to help maintain aircraft condition and create a clearer history of storage and care.

That history matters throughout ownership.

When it’s time to sell, it gives a future buyer more context around how the aircraft has been looked after, fewer reasons to question its condition, and fewer grounds to negotiate on it.

Protect the aircraft today.
Support its value tomorrow.
