Weatherproof Water Tight Wood Door

True Raise Panel Doors

True Raised Panel D

For exterior applications Sing Core wood doors are not only built true flat and designed to stay flat for centuries but they can also be virtually impervious to extreme weather conditions remaining watertight and will not warp, bend or twist over time thanks to our patented new door technology.

Some care must be taken in the selection of materials and substrate to achieve the desired results of your weatherproof and water tight wood door that can include free lite opening cutouts for glass insertion and combined with true raised panel doors for unlimited design options.

Marine grade plywood is an excellent exterior surface material, and augmenting surface treatments for sealing from the elements is also suggested as part of the solution for your water tight or weather proof expectations.

Architects seek out Sing Core for problem-solving for doors that exceed the demand that can be met by other door manufacturers, and commonly provide custom solutions for blast doors, bulletproof applications, underwater usages and extreme weather doors including hurricane doors*.

The key to designing the right door, is by clearly defining your expectations, so that Sing Core can provide you with a door that meets and exceeds your specifications, and thereby can be covered by our limited lifetime guarantee for your specific application.

Raising the Bar for Exterior Doors

Exterior doors routinely breakdown over time, leading to expensive maintenance, repair of replacement, but Sing Core weather proof and water tight doors are designed to exceed the expectations that you have learned to settle for in the past.

Sing Core is an extremely resilient material and is resistant to deterioration and/or rot even when exposed to the elements untreated.

Even without coating, Sing Core sandwich panels outlast plywood, solid wood, MDF, and particle board. Plywood and engineered wood rot and crack because of the weak glue layers. Sing Core panels last because the patented core material keeps the panels flat through torsion box technology, and therefore doesn’t allow the panel to crack, warp or twist.

As an alternative to weatherproof and watertight wood doors, Sing Aluminum and Fiberglass panels are ideal for outdoor applications for effective eco wood treatment.

Balsa Wood Alternative

foam-panel-guaranteed-true-flat-lightweight-strongSing Core is the new space age composite material that is the affordable cousin to Balsa wood and has many features that Balsa wood does not have. Using the best combination of science and nature, patented Sing Core is a Balsa wood hybrid, using a natural vertical wood torsion box design.

While torsion box has been used for centuries as lightweight structure, but Sing Core fills the open spaces with recycled foam (available in a variety of densities and material to meet your specifications), then the exterior surfaces (or skins) are bonded, completing the solid structure.

Weigh the alternatives and you can make an educated decision as to whether Sing advanced composites (the best of both worlds) will better suit your needs at less than one-third the weight of Balsa wood at less than half the price.

Balsa wood does have high compression, yet compared to other composite cores, Sing Core tests out at 660 PSI, that is stronger than steel pound for pound (even bullet proof doors don’t test that high). And Sing Core is more ecologically responsible as we use only 8% natural wood fiber (compared to balsa wood’s 100%) yet due to its unique design is much stronger when compared to other materials.

balsa-wood-treeUnlike Balsa wood, Sing Panels are resistant to warp, twist and rot, and they are pre-insulated for insulation and sound-deadening.

And Sing Core is so much more affordable than balsawood, especially if you are considering incorporating it as a lightweight substrate material for a large project, like a door, a table top, conference table, etc… See more applications.

Sing Core’s built-in torsion box structure, where the grid voids are not left unfilled but are filled with EPS foam provides a solid surface for bonding exterior building materials to that will not delaminate over time. Upgrading to closed-cell foam, makes Sing Core a perfect match for marine applications, like decking materials.

5x20 ft Galvanized Steel Magnetic Sign Display Panels Lightweight High Strength Guaranteed true flat

Galvanized steel Sing panel (above) is made of 20 gauge thickness .40 inch thick and weighs 1.65 lbs. per sq. ft.

Sing galvanized steel is lightweight, insulated, stronger than steel pound for pound and just one of the metal panels in the Sing Metal Collection.

Sing galvanized steel features a less expensive exterior finish that is impervious to the elements resisting rust, wear and tear and rot more effectively than other forms of metal surface materials.

While remaining structurally sound, galvanized metal treatment reduces maintenance due to incidental damage or compromise.

The galvanized surface can sustain damage without compromising the protective surface material.

One of the most impressive attributes of Sing galvanized metals is these steel panels are not limited in size, including large and oversized without having to join separate pieces on job site. Available in almost any length, width, thickness… even custom shapes.

For instance, our most popular sized Sing galvanized steel panels are 5 ft. wide by 20 ft. long. We do this every day, and each one is the Eco-friendly alternative that is proudly Made in the USA of the same structural material that is used as substrate prior to adding wood-based door surface material (or paint grade) true flat doors featuring our 50 year guarantee to be true flat and stay flat. These galvanized steel panels excel in temperature resistance, high tensile strength and durability.

2×12 New Bamboo-style 2×12

sing-core-lightweight-wood-beams-are-eco-friendlySing 2×12 Lumber, Metal and much more….

The Sing 2×12 is not any type of soft wood or hardwood that you’ve ever known before; it is a basic material to build almost everything we use in our daily life.

1 Sing 2 x 12 x 1.5 inch panel

Why have we developed the Sing 2 x 12 x 1.5 inch thick Sing Plank?

  1. The Sing 2×12 is a superior match having the greatest amount of flexibility in diverse applications.
  2. Sing 2x12s can be produced in train load quantities. It has all the features of Sing Panels but at a lower cost. Sing 2 x 12 planks could use as substrate. Sing 2x12s can be edge-glued or end-glued to join and create any length or width. It is easy to append with any skin to accommodate any thickness. It is the most lightweight (1.5 lbs. per linear ft.), true flat and strongest insulated lumber ever invented.

Click here to see our Sing 2x12s in action in our 2×12 Photo Gallery.

2 Bamboo-style Sing 2×12 plank.

Why have we developed the Bamboo-style Sing 2 x 12 x 12 inch?

The only drawback when cutting 2 x 12 Sing Planks is exposing a portion of the Sing Core. When cutting the Sing 2×12 you need to remove a portion of the Sing Core and add insert a solid edge to end cap the exposed end. We have developed the solution by adding solid wood implants to create a Sing 2 x 12 like bamboo, providing cut points which will not expose Sing Core. It will have solid wood pre-installed at end of the Sing Panel cut point.

Due to the feedback of woodworkers who have heavy production schedules, we developed a new and improved Sing 2×12, that we call the Bamboo 2×12.

In much the same way that bamboo’s strength-cut-points occur naturally, Sing has scientifically redesigned the Sing 2×12 into its most prominent advancement, The Bamboo-style 2×12.

Sing-Bamboo-2x12-drawing-1You can see in the drawing (above) that 2 bamboo-like nodes have been put in place in the Sing 2×12 interior in the center-foot-area.
Cutting areas are precisely marked for your convenience. This allows for easy cross-cutting into lengths that are predetermined by the woodworking artist.

Sing-Bamboo-2x12-drawing-3

For instance, when cutting lengths of 1’, 3’, 4, 5’ or 8’ the nodes (or wood stiles) are pre-installed for convenient cross-cutting into these standard lengths.

Using the standard Sing 2×12, cutting an 8 foot length into two 4 foot lengths, would require the production team or woodworker to install wood styles at the cross-cut point, which may slow-down the production time.

Now, with the new and improved Bamboo-style 2×12, these challenges have been resolved, streamlining the production process

Sing-Bamboo-2x12-drawing-2

In the example (above) you can see how easy it is to edge-glue (using standard carpenter’s glue) Sing Bamboo 2x12s together into a large panel that could be used as a tabletop, counter, door, etc…

Question: If I need to build a door or table at 36 inch wide x 84 inch x 1.75 inch, what should I use Sing 2×12 plank or Sing Bamboo-style plank?

Answer: The Sing 2×12 Plank, because the Sing Bamboo-style 2×12 added cut-points would be superfluous (plus, the Sing 2×12 is less expensive).

Aesthetically, the Bamboo-style 2×12 and the Sing 2×12 look the same. If you require the Bamboo-style 2×12, you must specify when ordering.

Sing Planks have no hardwood only plywood skin

Advantage:

You do not have to wait your hardwood supplier ship to you over night from hundreds or thousands miles away, giving you inventory on-demand. All you need is stock to stock some Sing Core Block and you can create any building materials that you need, to your specific dimensions on-the-fly.

Q: Are there any other methods to build hardwood from substrate?

A: There are many type of substrate used as a base to add hardwood staves to create hardwood. It is common for veneer and/or staves to be glued on top or wrapped around with hardwood to make hardwood, but it is very heavy and sometimes unstable, creating movement. The most common substrate used is particle board, followed by MDF, plywood and LVL.

The ideal substrate is honeycomb or lightweight foam to use as substrate, but none of those lightweight materials are able to achieve the strength of Sing Core which when tested in University of Washington reached 660 PSI. Most common honeycombs (such as aluminum honeycomb core, plastic core, and paper core) and foam used in aviation industry are approximately 100 PSI, but the cost is more than 10 times more in comparison to Sing Core, and much heavier than Sing Core. This is the reason Sing Core is the primary choice for high end mill work in USA.

With some basic shop tools, you are able to build your own Sing Planks or even Sing Wood at any thickness or width.

Sing Hardwood

 

Advantage Sing Hardwood:

Maple-Cherry-Oak-VG-Fir-Walnut-Sing-Core1. Hardwood On-demand.
