For most purposes you will need a military hangar for rapid reload and launch of fighters or FAC with box launchers. You also will effect the reload time with officers in the fighter operation module.
I remember this is currently broken for commercial hangars though, so as Jorgen said you'll have to use military hangars.
Sorry... but I was wrong... you can replace box launchers in commercial hangars. Was just sure the box-launcher reloading text said military hangars at some point, but it does not and I just checked and you can reload box launchers in commercial hangars now.
So it is definitely a good way to station commercial hangar stations at colonies or outposts as long as you also have maintenance facilities there to maintain the fighters or ships you want to rearm.
You can also use commercial hangar ships to reload box launchers on larger ships in the field too now.
