Hurricane Door

Applications -> Building Components -> Doors -> Hurricane Door

Sing-Core-Hurricane-Door-Exterior-InteriorThe Sing Core Hurricane Door is the best extreme weather condition door designed to be hurricane-proof without compromising the beauty and elegance of a solid hardwood door.

The secret of the Hurricane Door is in the utter strength of this special door. Certainly there are other hurricane-resistant doors, but their strength comes at a high price: Heavy weight. Sing Core Hurricane Doors are lightweight, yet stronger than steel pound for pound.

Simple Elegance

Steel hurricane doors are extremely heavy, and frankly unattractive. The beauty of the Sing Core Hurricane Door is also incorporated in the overall design of the door. The French door design is sleek styling that is inviting as well as attractive in appearance.

There are unique interior and exterior views of the door. The Sing Core Hurricane Door’s exterior surface is weatherproof fiberglass (FRP) and the interior hosts the natural solid hardwood surface of your choice.

Superior Strength

Breaking down the Sing Core Hurricane Door design, we begin with a core of patented Sing Core material, endowing the door with both lightweight, super-strength and anti-warp attributes. The core is then sandwiched between two wood skins.

The exterior surface is covered in weatherproof fiberglass (FRP) and the interior surface made of a beautiful, natural hardwood in your choice of Maple, Cherry, Oak, VG Fir or Walnut.

Sing-Hurricane-Door-Illustration-2

Your Sing Core Hurricane Door is avalable in the following Hardwood Species:

sing-maple sing-cherry sing-oak sing-vg-fir sing-walnut
MAPLE CHERRY OAK VG FIR WALNUT

Other hardwood species or interior surfaces are available upon request.

Completely Customizable

Your Sing Core Hurricane Door can be modified to your specifications. The interior surface of your extreme weatherproof door can host nearly any material. Some of our more popular variations include aluminum, steel, plastic, fiberglass and concrete, amongst other special requests.

Any Size Door

The Sing Core Hurricane Door is available in any traditional size, and we manufacture hurricane doors up to 50 feet.

Hurricane Rating

Customer will need to perform lab tests to certify hurricane rating for local code compliance.

How to Build with Sing Core Block

It is easy to build your own Sing Hardwood to use in your own designs. No more need to stock expensive hardwood inventories, unless you want to. In many cases it is much easier and ecologically advantageous to create your own Sing Hardwood using our patented Sing Core Block.

Sing-Core-Block-147Here is an example of how to build a 2 foot by 4 foot panel using our Sing Core Block. First you lay your bottom skin face-down on your surface. Then you cover with a layer of urethane glue. Put your exterior wood staves (edges) into place, as shown in the photo to the right.

Sing-Core-Block-Drop-In-2Sing Core Block is utilizes our, “drop-in,” system. Basically, all you need is to slice the Sing core lock your desired thickness as determined by your specifications. Install your sliced Sing Core Block by placing it inside your wood perimeter to fill the vacant space with Sing Core Block material.

Continue to fill the empty space with additional sections of Sing Core Block material until the space is nearly filled.

Sing-Core-Block-Drop-In-5

Here’s an exampled of Sing Core Block-filled vacancy

Sing-Core-Block-152Next apply a layer of urethane glue to the top of all the surface material(s) including the exposed Sing Core Block and the top-side of the wood staves as shown in the photo to the right.

Sing-Core-Block-153The honeycomb torsion box provides the strength, while the urethane glue adds to the structural integrity of the end product, keeping it from delaminating under extreme conditions or over long periods of time.

Once you have a nice coat of urethane glue on the entire top surface, you are now ready to apply the top skin.

 

Sing-Core-Block-155

This is a photo of the applied top skins in place.

Sing-Core-Block-Stack-Clamping

Sing Press – No Equipment Necessary

Once you have all your glue and components into place, the panel(s) need to be cold-pressed for proper adhesion and dry-time. Dry times vary according to the type of glue that you use. We suggest using a slow-drying glue for a higher quality end-product.

Sing-Core-Block-Press

Hydraulic Press

If your facility already has a commercial hydraulic press, then by all means use that. Many of our craftsmen who are Sing Hardwood manufacturers avoid any equipment cost by utilizing the Sing Press model, that is constructed out of perfectly straight Sing Panels on the top and bottom and a few clamps. There is no structural advantage of using a commercial press, as the results are the same.

 

You can see that very little energy is expended in the manufacturing of your Sing Hardwood, and there is little or no waste.

On-Hand = On-Demand

In the demonstrations (above) it is easy to imagine that you as the craftsman have complete control of the creation process. You can make your own Sing Hardwood on-demand at your location, avoiding any shipping expense or time… and if you need a piece of material that you suddenly find yourself out-of-stock… In an emergency, you could make your own (insert any hardwood or lumber product you want) if you have some Sing Core Block on-hand.

Wholesale Resource

Sing Core orders certain components by the rail car. We can pass on some of our savings to the craftsmen who use our Sing Core Block technology. You may find it beneficial to obtain wood staves, hardwood skins, glue (or other materials) from us to take advantage of our bulk buying power.

Note: For structural purposes, you as the manufacturer are liable for testing, licensure and code approval. Sing Core is not liable for any unauthorized use of any product created off-site using our patented Sing Core Block material. In the event that you intent to use your Sing Core Block material purposes, we may assist you in the process of getting the required testing completed.

Sing Timber

What is Sing Timber?

Sing Timber is a large mass of wood that can be milled to any specification. Its versatility is exemplified by wood shops who saw the large timber masses in more specific smaller planks as needed. Sing Timber can come in 12 inches wide by 12 inches tall and 96 inches in length, or you can get it already cut-to-order as Sing Hardwood.

Sing Timber can be broken down into any thickness and width, to create your own wood plank. You do not have to inventory all size of plank just by sawing Sing Timber to the desired thickness. You can slice the Sing Timber to any desired width, all you have to do is to seal the deal by gluing an exterior skin on the fresh sawed side to finish your new plank.

How Can I Use Sing Timber?

Sing Timber is manufactured with a heart of Sing Core,  coverd with exterior skins on at least two sides form a large box like timber mass. It  can be sawed horizontally, sanded and glued to form a smaller wood plank. It will create any dimensional wood and it cabn be covered any hardwood species, metal, plastic or even cement to create a new generation of ulitmate lightweight, high strength products.

Sing Timber is Better than Hardwood

Sing Timber’s Sing Core makes this the only hardwood material that is better than hardwood, for a integrous building material that is just a beautiful as solid natural hardwood with far superior structural integrity.

Sing Timber’s high-strength is due to Sing Core that is less expensive than solid hardwood. When Sing Timber is produced, the energy savings are impressive, as the actual production process uses less energy, man hours and equipment usage and produces little or no waste. Sing Timber is also sonstructed of low cost, renewable natural wood fiber and recycled EPS foam. Patented Sing Core is many times stronger than most of the core materials used in modern aircraft with much less weight and a fraction of the cost of core used in the aircraft industry. The cost can be less than 10% of the inefficient core used in aircraft design.

Compare other type of honeycomb or core materials , sing core is the only core physically and cost effective to build Sing timer which will turn to hundreds of different products for many industries.

How does Sing Timber work?

Simply stated, Sing Timber can be used as any regular lumber, cut to fit your appropriate application, as in shelving, Or you could add a solid wood edge to enforce the strength and add fastening anchor point for mechanical fastening.

When working with Sing Timber with a router, be certain to attach wood strips to the area to be routed, as the exterior wood surface along the face is minimal.

Sing Timber is versatile

Our most popular format in Sing Timber is the 4×12 in 8- and or 10- foot lengths. It can be used as a stand-alone post and/or beam as is, or (here’s the exciting part) can be turned into so many different products for multiple applications. For example…

Sing 4×12 lumber can be easily sliced into alternate widths and thicknesses to suit your needs. No need to make multiple trips to the store to pick up the lumber you need, simply slice Sing Timber 4x12s into the size that you want on-site; Perfect for the millworker or ambitious do-it-yourselfer.

By sawing the sandwich panel cross the Sing core to form two pc of sing sandwich without skin on one side than add new skin or add new solid wood to build a two sandwich panel or two Sing panels at different thickness. Sing Timber is easily broken down into any dimension wood plank or hardwood. Sing Timber can be easily sliced to substitute for standard 2×4 lumber.

How Do You Add Hardwood Stave?

It is easy to add a sardwood stave to any cut or sawed section of Sing Timber.

Firstly, all you have to do is to sand the surface of your freshly-cut exposed Sing Core section of your plank.  Apply urethane glue or white glue to the smooth surface, then press. It’s that simple to turn a selection of Sing Timber into your own Sing Beam that is just as visually impressive as solid wood, but lighter weight and stronger than steel pound for pound.

Sing Timber is Strong and Straight

It is very hard to find straight hardwood without bowing, twisting or cracking.  Solid hardwood is heavy, and hard to work with.

Sing Timber is an eco-friendly solid wood composite material with a patented Sing Core interior that results in lumber that is straight and flat, unlike any other building material on the planet.

Sing Timber is also available pre-cut as Sing Hardwood.
