Sliding Doors

The deal with sliding doors is that you want your sliding doors to remain straight and true throughout their service life. Architects, designers and end users face the issues associated with the problems associated with sliding doors, such as,

Problems with Sliding Doors

The first problem with sliding doors is that they tend to move (warp, bend, twist or cup) compromising the doors’ performance. Especially in the case of sliding doors because they hang parallel to a wall (like sliding barn doors), another door (such as double sliding doors) or within a wall (like sliding pocket doors). If the door does not stay straight, it can wreck either the sliding doors or the surfaces they slide against, or both.

Heavy Sliding Doors

One way to deal with the problem of warping sliding doors is to build them using extremely heavy and warp resistant materials, such as steel, which introduces whole new set of problems, which will increase maintenance costs over the life of the door. Even though the heavy sliding door may not warp, it will require expensive heavy duty hardware (which can cost many times the price of the door itself) which can easily be compromised due to regular use, as well as the added stress of using a heavy door, will add stress and strain to the frame and structure, also requiring additional maintenance over time. Some architects and designers might consider using a lighter weight metal, such as,

Aluminum Sliding Doors

Of course, aluminum sliding doors make more sense; though contemplating the use of solid aluminum sliding doors will still introduce the problem of heavy weight. One way to manage the weight of the door is to use a honeycomb material, such as aluminum honeycomb, paper honeycomb or some other type of honeycomb material inside the otherwise hollow core sliding door. The only problem with that is that as you introduce a lightweight substrate, the door begins to warp again, especially if they are exterior sliding doors.

 

Wooden Sliding Doors

Ah, the elegance and beauty of natural wood. We love it and exotic wood grains can instantly garner the awe and attention of anyone spying a large sliding door made of wood. This is why many large sliding doors are wooden sliding doors. As magnificent and appealing as they are, wood is the worst culprit of all, because it can barely sit still for as long as you can. Due to wood’s natural characteristics, it is most prone to warp, bending, twisting and cupping, because even separated from the tree, it still fights for survival and the grain will either expand or contract due to the elements it is presented with. Exterior doors are the most problematic because one side faces the interior space, while the other side faces the elements outside, a perfect recipe for door warp.

Large Sliding Doors

The bane of perplexed custom sliding door manufacturers is the additional challenges with doors which are taller than 7 ft. tall and wider than 3.5 ft. Very few, if any, custom door manufacturers or millworks will even consider guaranteeing a door over seven feet tall. Why? Because they know it is going to fail, and they will be called upon to deal with it. In most cases, the job as a whole will have a warranty on the work done, with the exception of the large sliding doors which are normally noted as exceptions to any warranty that might cover the rest of the job. That is, unless you know the answer to the problems associate with large sliding doors.

Sliding Door Design Problems Solved

Architects and engineers are constantly perplexed with the problems associated with sliding doors, fortunately an Eco-friendly composite solution made in the USA, helps to solve the problems associated with faulty sliding door design. Patented Sing Core, along with their true flat door team, can help to create sliding doors that will remain straight and true far beyond the service life of any other sliding doors.

Sliding Door Design

Your sliding door design is limited only by your imagination. Architects and designers love adding sliding doors to spaces for visual impact and improved functionality. Many options cover the landscape of design possibilities when considering adding sliding doors to a particular design. Some of the most popular sliding door designs include single sliding doors, double sliding doors, stacking sliding doors, pivot sliding doors, sliding barn doors, floating doors and pocket doors, just to name a few, while large sliding doors may comprise complete sliding walls and may be used as sliding room dividers.

The only 50 year warp-free guarantee and full structure warranty

Imagine Your Sliding Door Design

The strength of contemporary architecture design is in the creativity limited only by the imagination of the individual envisioning the concept, look and feel of the project at hand. In a perfect world, your sliding door visualizations and ideas translate well to the real world. In many cases what is seen in the mind’s eye exceeds (sometimes far exceeds) the limitations of available building materials, time or budget constraints (because any sliding door design is possible given enough time and money).

Limitations of Sliding Door Design

When translating visionary sliding doors to the real world, certain limitations are imposed on those with their feet on the ground, whose responsibility it is to bring your sliding door dream to life. These limitations include such things as the Law of Physics and the specific characteristics of the available materials used to materialize your most exquisite sliding door design.

Our team of best sliding door professionals have years of experience trouble-shooting and solving the problems associated specifically with unique sliding door designs. Here are some of the problems associated with sliding doors which we can provide solid solutions for (including our 50 year warp-free guarantee) regardless of the size, style or functionality of your sliding door design.

Sliding Door Sizes

Sliding doors, just like any other type or style of doors, vary in accordance with the materials used and the overall size of the door which determines the weight of the door. Large oversized sliding doors, particularly those over 7 ft. tall are so entirely problematic that no door company will warranty them for more than one year because they cannot maintain optimum precision or door performance over time due to the sliding door’s mass. Yet, even large exterior sliding doors with SingCore inside can be fully guaranteed for 50 years not to fail, regardless of size (up to 50 ft.). So, now you can release the previous limitations concerning size and embrace the idea of very large sliding doors, even floor to ceiling sliding doors and sliding partition walls that will make your design shine for years to come.

Sliding Door Weight

Sliding doors best operate within a delicate balance between size and weight, where weight can cause problems associated with the structure, the sliding door hardware, and the regular trouble-free operation of the sliding door. SingCore’s highly specialized staff can help to engineer doors to be lightweight (1/3rd or more the weight) of other solid core doors.

How do you make such a lightweight door? We use patented insulated Sing reinforced vertical grain torsion box core inside which makes the resulting door so much lighter than other solid core doors. Fore instance one door company replaced a series 25 foot tall sliding doors weighing in at 1,100 lbs. with Sing 25 foot sliding doors weighing in at a mere 198 lbs.

Sliding Door Hardware

Next up is the sliding door hardware, which is also most closely associated with the sliding door weight. In fact, the weight of the sliding door dictates which hardware is to be used. In the case of heavy sliding doors, heavy duty industrial sliding door hardware must be used. In the case of heavy sliding doors, the sliding door hardware can be the most expensive part of the sliding door design, costing many times the price of the sliding door itself. Also, regular use of a heavier sliding door will create maintenance problems with the sliding door hardware over time.

Sliding Door Warp

A warping sliding door is problematic in that it can not only compromise the operation of the sliding door itself but also can create additional strain on hardware and damage other surfaces which parallel the sliding door. In the case of a sliding door concealed within a cavity, like a pocket sliding door, a warped sliding door can become entirely inoperable.

This is particularly common in wood sliding doors due to the nature of the natural wood grain; it moves. Even though wood grain is the most prevalent culprit in on site sliding door failures, sliding doors made of other materials may also warp as designers, engineers and contractors attempt to mitigate the problems associated with the weight of heavy sliding doors by creating a lightweight composite sliding door. Though the issue of weight is addressed, the strength of the door is only as strong as its sliding door core material. Therefore, lightweight composite sliding doors made of other materials besides natural wood are subject to failure due to warping also.

Sliding Door Solution

SingCore is the premiere one-of-a-kind solution to all problems associated with sliding doors, eliminating the challenges of:

WEIGHT – HARDWARE – WARP

While adding attribute inherit with having patented SingCore inside, such as

LIGHTWEIGHT – HIGH STRENGTH – INSULATION – WARP-FREE

Exporting Eco-friendly Building Materials Made in the USA

The lightweight and high-strength attributes of SingCore are spanning the globe as designers, architects, and project managers continue to specify their projects have, “SingCore Inside.”

The only 50 year warp-free guarantee and full structure warranty

SingCore is the secret ingredient in building projects – especially those of large size and components with long spans – where certain challenges become apparent in translating the creator’s vision to real life.

Many problems associated with large, oversized projects or elements become apparent when attempting to bring an original design to life, mostly concerned with weight and strength.

Until now, very strong building materials were heavy in weight. This extra weight creates problems for the structure in terms of stress and strain over time. Lightweight building materials may be substituted for the stronger heavy ones, but compromises are made which may compromise the strength and integrity of the project.

This is the quandary facing development teams and precisely the point where SingCore provides the solution to the problems facing developers of large projects.

Such as issues in the tallest of buildings, not only in New York (where most of our product is shipped to nationally) but across the ocean, like in this, one of the tallest buildings in Bangkok, Thailand.

Crane hoisting large pivot doors, posts and beams

Fortunately, due to the extreme lightweight of SingCore building products, such as panels, posts and beams, entire containers of building materials could be sent from the factory located in Washington State in the USA to the job site in Bangkok at a fraction of the shipping cost of other materials.

Lightweight building materials easy to transport, less risk of danger or injury

The lightweight characteristics of SingCore also enables the materials to be quickly and easily lifted by crane without risk or danger of heavier materials while being able to be indisputably and safely manhandled by staff and laborers, rather than utilizing heavy equipment to maneuver the materials throughout the job site.

Lightweight large pivot doors easily carried by hand on job site without heavy equipment

37 ft. Tall Pivot Doors

If you’re designing a conference center with 40 ft. ceilings and need a row of 37 ft. tall pivot doors to act as room dividers, you are going to be faced with the issues concerning strength vs. weight. In order to keep the 37 ft. tall doors from warping, your design team is faced with the challenge.

If you dared to think, “What if I could have it all?” If it were possible, you would like to have insulation for its sound deadening qualities and climate control. Then you could just hang insulated baffles, but you would compromise the function of have pivot doors and they could easily fail as they have no strength.

Problem solvers would suggest that aluminum or steel could solve the problem, but the weight of a 37 ft. tall pivot doors would be very, dangerous to install and very expensive for the 37 ft. tall pivot doors, as well as the heavy duty pivot door hardware, which would probably cost many times the price of the large metal door itself.

This is the common paradox facing the designers dealing with the weight vs. strength issue, especially in large doors.

This is where SingCore shines as it rescues the plight of engineers and contractors fervently attempting to bring the designer’s vision come to life. SingCore is the only Eco-friendly, insulated lightweight, high-strength building material that outperforms other lightweight building materials so much, that it is the only material that can be used to build a large non-warping door of any size in any application.

Insulated Strength and Rigidity

SingCore is the provider of highly advanced high precision panels, posts and beams for high-end applications and clients all over the world. These patented building materials are unique in that they are lightweight, stronger than steel, and insulated for R value and sound deadening STC levels.

The precision of SingCore as a building material is +/- .006 inch, which makes it a standard for high precision clientele such as NASA and the United States military. The strength is unmatched by any other affordable lightweight material (660+ PSI), making SingCore stronger than steel pound for pound, enabling this material to cover long spans with little supporting structure and deflection, achieving a new standard for less deflection under loads and warp resistance.

Warp-free Doors

It is now not only possible, but proven, that you can build a warp-free door of any available flat building material – even as problematic a building material as natural wood grain – and have the resulting door be guaranteed not to warp, bend, twist or otherwise fail for 50 years.

No other door can compare to the insulated lightweight strength of doors with Eco-friendly premium SingCore inside.

How Lightweight?

The weight of SingCore is easily one-third the weight (50% to 87%) of solid wood.


Case Study Comparison:

Traditional Pivot Door

Height: 25 ft

In most cases, a large pivot door is very heavy in weight, this requires additional shipping, handling and may require additional heavy equipment to handle the large pivot door on site as well as requiring heavy duty pivot door hardware which based on weight can be many times more expensive than the large pivot door itself.

When your large wood plank pivot doors have SingCore inside, they can weigh-in at 3 lbs. per sq. ft. Your 10×10 pivot door could weigh 300 lbs.

* SingCore pivot doors may vary considerably due to individual weight of architecturally specified materials

AWI Members Large Door Solution

When you’re dealing with high end large doors, long conference tables and oversized casework, you need to deal with a reputable millwork company who is highly qualified and well versed in many Architectural Woodwork Standards which help to create high precision products. Being a member of the Architectural Woodwork Institute (AWI) is an excellent way to assure the woodworking professionals you are working with are knowledgeable and proficient in their woodworking capabilities.

The highest quality standard endorsed by the AWI is Premium, yet some clients have much higher performance and expectations which raise the architectural standards across the board. The architect is faced with specifying the standards the client desires, which may far exceed AWI Premium standards.

One such common request includes high performance expectations for components which AWI maintains low expectations.

For instance, if the client’s desire is to have a 12 foot tall wood pivot door with little or no deflection or door warp, there is no matching AWI standard. The standard for allowable deflection in a 7 foot tall door including warp, bow, cup, or twist is 1/4 inch. There exists no official standard for doors over 7 feet tall, and millworks and door companies are likely to require a signed waiver from the client signing-off on any expectations of warranty on any greater than 7 foot tall doors.

Even though 1/4 inch warp is recognized as a reasonable amount of deflection and allowable by AWI standards, in some cases the expectations of the client still remains. The architect specifies the desires of the client and it is up to the millwork company or door manufacturer to determine how it might be possible to create an enormous warp-free door of any size.

Fortunately, AWI members can reach out to AWI suppliers, like SingCore, who specialize in helping to design and create warp-free doors of any size, type or style.

The true-flat experts at SingCore are extremely proficient in creating warp-free panels of any size which can be structurally guaranteed not to fail or warp for 50 years. So, if the rest of the job is guaranteed for 10 years by the millwork conducting the work, then offering to warranty the entire job – including the large oversized doors – then becomes reasonable.

Prior to coming to SingCore one door company simply stated, “All large doors warp and cannot be guaranteed under any circumstances.” Now, thanks to utilizing the services of certified warp-free SingCore doors, the company can deliver the results according to the architectural specifications and expectations of the customer.

Not simply restricted to doors, the ability of SingCore to provide extremely flat large surfaces of any material that can be guaranteed to remain flat over time spills over into many other products and services.

Common surface materials include any available natural wood species, aluminum, brass, concrete, cold rolled steel, fiberglass, FRP, glass, hot rolled steel, HPL, Kevlar, LVL, MDF, stainless steel, veneer or any other commercially available flat material.

SingCore is increasingly being architecturally specified as the standalone solution for many large exterior projects where particular components are exposed to the elements as well as interior woodwork, panel work, partition work, casework and fixtures as supplied or manufactured for all types of buildings across many industries including retail, commercial, hospitality, industrial and high end residential industries.

You might be surprised to discover how more and more architects are specifying SingCore in their woodworking, metal, laminates, plastics, fabrics, design work, finishing and installation.

AWI members know if they are faced with a problematic large oversize project with challenges associated with insulation, weight, strength, high precision or high performance, reaching out and suggesting,

“SingCore Inside”

Is the only solution which can be guaranteed for 50 years.

“This is why we like working with AWI members,” says CEO and inventor of SingCore, Peter Sing, “They know how to work with our solution to their challenges.”

Sing Panels with Plumbing and Wire Chase

sing-panel-horizontal-embedded-cable-chase-wire-chase-plumbing-chaseCustom Sing Panels can be manufactured to your architectural specifications which may include special chases for plumbers to route hot and cold water feeds via plumbing or electricians to run electrical wiring, communications and security through a patented Sing panel.

Surface mount conduit and exterior chases can be added to Sing panels as they are, though many users of our patented insulation reinforced torsion box core prefer to use embedded wiring chase of for water supply pre-installed plumbing chase.

Embedded Chases

Embedded chases can be placed at specified locations prior to manufacturing your Sing panel to meet the specific requirement of the job at hand, accommodating communications center needs or the special needs of inplant offices, clean rooms, temporary warehousing, watch towers, guard shacks, portable classrooms, spa expansions, home theaters or any application where running utilities, like electricity, wiring and/or cables or plumbing inside and through your Sing panel may be advantageous.

Common horizontal chases are specified at 16 inches and 45 inches from the base, while the most common location for a vertical chase is in the center of the Sing panel. Regardless, every Sing panel is custom manufactured in our factory, and we can have your wire chase or plumbing pre-installed within your panels at any location specified.

How to Specify Wire Chase Locations

sing-panel-embedded-cable-chase-wire-chase-plumbing-chaseIt is easy to have your embedded chases pre-installed at the proper locations. All you have to do is to be certain to disclose the precise locations and sizes of your wire chase (plumbing chase or cable chase). We will provide you with an architectural drawing of your panel before your custom Sing panel is built for you to confirm the chase’s location.

No Loss of R Value

To preserve the R-value of your Sing panel it is advisable to have the cable chase filled with spray foam insulation after pulling the wires or routing the plumbing through the embedded channels. Likewise, if a channel is not used, it should also be filled with foam insulation prior to final assembly, unless insulation properties are not necessary for your application.

Panel Chase Options

Although many options abound for electricians and plumbers to install access to services, another popular method includes running cable, wire and plumbing through panel connectors that run the length of your standard Sing panels, or alternatively running services through the floor.

Many creative options are available for adding access to water, electricity and communications without having the necessity of pre-installed chases being embedded in your Sing panels.

Sing exhibit wall panels are insulated lightweight and high strength exhibition panels that help to create a high end exquisite exhibit wall that can be reconfigured on the fly, if necessary. Among any movable walls for art galleries, the Sing solution is the most convenient to use material that is easy and simple to assemble and disassemble, use, reuse, breakdown and store for the next special occasion.

The secret lies deep within the patented exhibition panel design based on a torsion box hybrid system that is stronger than steel (660 PSI) pound for pound, yet extremely lightweight for easy deployment of your exhibition display system.

Sing exhibition wall panels are dead flat and remain straight and true for long periods of time. In fact, Sing exhibition wall systems are manufactured using the most advanced Eco-friendly exhibition booth material that are the only portable gallery walls that can be fully backed by our 50 year warp-free and full structure guarantee.

That’s why you will find Sing temporary exhibition walls throughout the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA) and the Cincinnati Museum Center, like in this Princess Diana exhibition, for example:
