My current hangar is a steel structure with sheet metal siding. Its
your typical T-hangar set-up, with internal walls (sheet metal again)
separating the individual units.

With a cordless drill and (maybe) some sheet metal snips I'm sure I
could be inside my hangar unit within 15 minutes just by removing
some sheet metal. Once I was inside a unit, I could work my way to
all the other units without anyone noticing. Who would suspect the
whine of a drill or a rattle of sheet metal around a hangar?


Everyone might check their own hangers to be sure, but many are a 2 second
trip through a walk in door, even with a deadbolt.

A lot of the door facings on metal buildings can be sprung far enough with a
tire tool, that you can get in quicker that way than with a key. The facing
will usually even spring back completely, leaving very little evidence that
the building has been entered.
