Wood Sliding Door

Sing Core’s revolutionary wood sliding door is unlike any other wood sliding door in the world with features and benefits unmatched by any other Eco-friendly lightweight, high strength door available anywhere at any price.

 

Mr. Sing’s True Flat Team at his Sing Core factory tucked away in the serenity of the plush Pacific Northwest in Washington State, utilizes varying formulations of his patented and patent-pending technologies to produce these one of a kind warp-free wooden sliding door products.

While many of the doors which feature Sing’s “Sing Core” inside their doors are the homes, establishments, and industrial sites of the most elite individuals in the United States and the world, Mr. Sing would like to see every interior sliding door, from closet sliding door to sliding carriage and barn doors featuring his core material in every home.

Then everyone could enjoy wood sliding doors built to last centuries and guaranteed not to warp, bend, twist, cup, or otherwise fail for 50 years, which also provide these amazing benefits:

  1. Eco-friendly

  2. Lightweight

  3. High Strength

  4. Dimensionally Stable

  5. Impact Resistant

  6. Fully Insulated, for

    1. Sound Isolation

    2. Climate Control

  7. Feature Any Wood Species (subject to availability)

  8. Available in Any Style

  9. Any Size (up to 40 ft., or more)

  10. 50-year Warp-free Guarantee

10×12 ft 3″ thick warp-free 1/8″ oak 520 lbs

Due to Sing’s doors being so lightweight, think of the cost savings over the life of your wood sliding door in wooden sliding doors door hardware over time. The initial cost of hardware is based on the weight of the door, the greater the weight of the sliding door, the more expensive the hardware is. Sometimes the sliding door hardware can be more expensive than the sliding door, itself.

Heavy wood sliding doors will present regular maintenance costs over time, as the weight of the door under normal usage conditions will cause the hardware to beak down, requiring service or replacement. These heavy doors also exert stress on the structure over the course of normal operation which leads to other structural maintenance costs over time.

If your wood sliding door has Sing Core inside, the weight of the door will be very light, saving you money on lighter weight-rated sliding door hardware. Plus, regular operation of the Eco-friendly, lightweight and high strength door does not wreak havoc on the structure, which means very little maintenance over time, if any, which greatly reduces the average cost of wood sliding doors overall.

The most modern sliding patio doors and modern sliding barn doors have Sing Core inside as contemporary architects and designers let their creative juices flow thanks to Sing’s invention of Sing Core.

These are often considered among the best wood sliding doors and by far the best-performing gliding patio door as Sing’s invention makes child’s play of the challenges associated with a wood sliding door with one side 100% exposed to the weather (which usually creates many problems for door manufacturers in the field following installation).

If you, or your client, demands the highest degree of stylish sliding doors which can continue to be proud of and can be guaranteed for 50 years of worry-free enjoyment without fail?

Shouldn’t your wood sliding doors (at least the most special ones) have Sing Core inside?

How can you get the best wood sliding door in the world?

Surprisingly, you cannot get a door from Sing Core. Inventor Peter Sing says,

“We do not make doors.”

Which is a little confusing because he does provide the best sliding door manufacturers in the world, as well as custom door makers, and millworks, with his patented core systems to enable them to create these enormously famous one of a kind doors. See our new C Series line of Affordable Barn Door and Sliding Closet Doors.

So, all you have to do is to contact you favorite door manufacturer, custom door builder, or millwork, and tell them you want “Sing Core inside,” your door.

Then you, too can have one of the world’s best doors for a better world.

Indoor Sliding Barn Doors

Sing Core’s indoor sliding barn doors are unlike any other barn doors in that they are engineered and manufactured to exacting specs wrapped around a unique combination of patented and patent-pending technology which makes these particular indoor sliding barn doors lighter in weight than others, yet stronger than steel pound for pound.

 

Thanks to the invention of Sing Core, sliding barn doors can take on new characteristics that were impossible to expect from any type of barn style doors which were their predecessors. Sing’s barn doors of today are built to stay perfectly straight, while also offering full insulation for sound dampening and climate control.

You don’t have to wince and the idea of building a large wooden barn door either. Most door manufacturers cringe at the idea of creating a large wood sliding barn door, because it is pretty much understood that such a monster will suffer from door warping in no time. It’s your proverbial architectural nightmare, but Sing’s indoor sliding door core solves the problems associated with making large sliding barn doors.

Sing’s crack team of large sliding barn door engineers painstakingly review all the details of every sliding barn door that appears at Sing Core’s headquarters, located deep in the solace of the Pacific Northwest or Washington State. They have encountered so many sliding barn door ideas, it boggles the mind. Just when they think they’ve seen it all, here comes a totally new creation from the visionary mind of a contemporary architect.

Indoor sliding barn doors can be manufactured in a wide array of door styles to accommodate any style of interior design from rustic to ultra-modern, and it is not uncommon to see them feature large glass inserts, not unlike commonly found among French door designs.

Whether they are closet barn doors or indoor sliding barn doors used in sequence as huge room dividers, the potential of Sing’s handcrafted sliding barn doors are nearly unlimited as they are lightweight interior sliding wood glass barn doors that are stronger than steel pound for pound. Sing’s core was independently tested by the University of Washington at 660+ PSI.

There is no doubt the True Flat Team at Sing Core knows how to make a sliding barn door that will stand the test of time. Not only do they know how to build a barn door, they build it to last for centuries and guarantee every premium door for fifty years (no lie).

Interior sliding barn doors built and designed with patented true flat technology are guaranteed not to warp, bend, twist, cup, or otherwise fail for 50 years. (Guarantee is signed by inventor and president, Peter Sing, himself.)

Regardless of your modern sliding barn door design ideas, you can let your creativity flow, even if you are considering a sliding barn wood door of immense size. Not a problem for Sing and his high-performance door techs.

Though they cater primarily to Fortune 500s, the military, high profile architects, and NASA, you can have Sing’s wooden modern glass interior barn doors in your home or establishment, too. All you have to do is to contact your favorite barn door company, millwork, or custom door manufacturer, and order the door that you want, and be sure to mention you want,

“Sing Core inside.”

Wood Sliding Doors

Wood sliding doors are by far the top sellers of all door types besides hinged doors of any kind of doors. Wood sliding doors serve a wide variety of applications from residential to hospitality, business, commercial, and industrial wood sliding doors.

 

A wood sliding door is a very elegant statement in nearly any environment, and can be operated by hand, or electronically articulated and operated by remote control. Remote control wood sliding doors can have problems when operating a large sliding door which is very heavy over time.

If you’re replacing a wooden sliding door, you might consider reducing your regular maintenance costs over time by obtaining wooden sliding doors with Sing Core inside, which provides you with a lightweight impact resistant wood sliding door that is fully insulated and stronger than steel pound for pound.

Modern sliding barn doors are among the most popular trends in interior sliding doors of late, and a large wooden barn door is definitely the most challenging to attempt of all sliding door systems, because the more wood grain in the sliding barn doors, the more tendency they will have to warp, unless you have a warp-free Sing wood sliding barn door.

Inventor Peter Sing is famous for providing the highest precision and functionality in large lightweight wood sliding doors relieving the stress on wooden sliding door hardware as well as the structure, delivering high performance and each individual door can be guaranteed not to warp, bend, twist, cup, or otherwise fail for 50 years, regardless of size.

Sing’s modern sliding patio doors are the most impressive wood patio doors. Each one of these individual sliding glass doors is essentially a one of a kind piece of artwork, specially designed and engineered from the inside out by Sing’s True Flat Team. The individual characteristics of each of these modern doors results in every wood sliding door being specifically engineered to perfectly fit the application, exposure to the elements, type of sliding door hardware, impact resistance, sound deadening qualities, any type of exterior surface material.

If you’re in search of the ultimate sliding patio door, you pretty much need to have Sing Core inside, if you want a high precision gliding patio door, which outperforms all other sliding glass patio doors. Now, thanks to Sing’s invention, you can have sliding patio doors that are commonly referred to the best patio sliding doors. It’s no wonder you find them in the most expensive multi-million-dollar homes in America.

The most common sliding French wood patio doors you find with Sing’s core inside are the perfect balance between wood and glass, with a beautiful wood frame holding transparent glass in the center of the sliding French wood doors.

The insulation value of Sing’s core allows him to provide both sound dampening and climate control to wood sliding doors, either on purpose, or as a pleasant added benefit, even if you’re designing a custom wood glass sliding closet door.

Often referred to as the best sliding wood doors, sliding doors with Sing Core inside are the latest evolution of sliding door ideas, since, (well, sing forever).

So, how would you go about obtaining sliding wood doors with Sing Core inside for your home? It really is very easy, but you won’t get them from Sing’s factory. The inventor is very clear in his assertion that,

“We do not make doors.” ~ Peter Sing

How can that be, when Sing’s doors are featured in so many of the most upscale projects in the world?

According to the inventor and CEO, Sing Core only provides the base door or sliding door blank to the millwork, door manufacturer, or custom door shop. The rest is up to the other professionals to finish creating this work of art, as well as installation. It takes a village to design and build the best wood sliding doors.

You are not limited simply to wood doors, as Sing Core also supplies the world’s biggest and best door companies with large custom aluminum wood multi slide door blanks and large aluminum wood sliding doors. See our new C Series line of Affordable Barn Door and Sliding Closet Doors.

Custom Sliding Door

The new and improved custom sliding door projects at Sing Core are always exciting as they specialize in solving the problems associated with large custom sliding doors for the most expensive homes in the world as well as custom & replacement doors for closets, media rooms, garages, bedrooms and offices.

While the biggest custom sliding door presents many problems to the contemporary architecture and design firm, using the finest large sliding door engineers, Sing Core reaches out offering solutions to any of the problems which may be faced when trying to create a visionary’s custom sliding door ideas to life.

If you are looking for a custom manufactured sliding door system, you would be well-served to seek out inventor Peter Sing’s patented and patent-pending custom sliding door systems and solutions, resulting in Eco-friendly lightweight and high strength custom sliding doors which are built to last for centuries but guaranteed for 50 years.

Sing’s True Flat Team at Sing Core rises to the task every day to take the headache out of realizing your custom sliding door vision, especially if you are struggling with a large sliding door opening, and wrestling with a building material which is difficult to keep straight, such as the case of natural wood sliding doors.

Natural wood presents the biggest problem for door manufacturers because wood moves, what we in the business call, “door warping.” There is little pride associated in building any custom sliding door that will warp months or weeks after installation, regardless of how beautiful it might be.

Enter Sing’s invention of Sing Core, the only way to build an Eco-friendly lightweight custom sliding door that is stronger than steel pound for pound (independently tested at 660+ PSI) and can be guaranteed not to warp, bend, twist, cup, or otherwise fail for 50 years.

Sing has creating warp-free large custom sliding doors down to a science utilizing his inventions to build any door you want around his warp-free door core substrate which is engineered and manufactured to match your choice of any surface material to keep any custom sliding door of any size, even up to 40 ft. tall and/or wide or larger from warping, whether they are interior sliding doors or exterior sliding doors.

The most problematic large sliding doors are exterior sliding doors because one side faces the interior of the structure while the other side may be one hundred percent exposed to weather. This is the perfect recipe for warping doors, unless they have Sing’s patented core inside.

Which makes the Sing solution a perfect match for custom made patio doors which could be made of any available flat building material, which not only gives you a true flat, warp-free panel sliding patio door, but you get the added safety and security that comes from having insulated custom patio doors.

Sing’s custom sliding glass and hinged patio doors are the contemporary glass opening approach to having that French door design access connecting the structure’s interior with the outside whether doors are secured or wide open for the most modern sliding patio doors. This also makes the Sing solution the top resource for replacement sliding patio doors which may never need replacing again.

The fully embedded insulation in Sing’s hybrid design sports an R-value of 3.5 to 6.5 per inch in thickness, assuring you more safety, security, privacy, and climate control with fully customized sliding doors for your home that are beautiful, and energy efficient impact resistant doors.

Peter Sing works together with the contemporary architects and modern designers to create custom made sliding doors unique to the design, function, and high precision expectations while delivering the best dimensionally stable results possible with his new hybrid custom sliding door technology, available in nearly unlimited and extreme custom sizes.

So, if you’re looking for bringing your superior custom sliding door design to life, regardless of size and limitations of your most desired materials, Sing Core can help to bridge the gap between what was previously impossible and the birth of all your replacement and new oversized sliding doors.

To either create or re-create your indoor/outdoor living space with custom sliding doors, all you have to do is to contact the sliding door company of your choice and tell them what you want. Give them the specs of your dream door, including the height, width, and thickness, as well as what material you would like to have the door made of, and don’t forget to tell them you want, “Sing Core inside.”

No two sliding doors are the same as Sing’s 100% custom sliding doors are created with the love and care of fine handcraftsmanship in his factory nestled in the scenic Pacific Northwest in Washington State. Even though his location is somewhat remote, Sing Core ships every day to destinations across the United States and around the world.

The number one delivery location is the greater New York area. It’s a good thing that Sing’s Custom-made sliding door blanks are so lightweight, that shipping them across America is far less expensive than other materials of the same size.

The rest will result in all your architecturally beautiful interior sliding door and custom sliding door dreams coming true for you and your most discerning clientele, all backed by inventor Peter Sing’s 50-year warp-free guarantee.

Every door with Sing Core inside is custom-made in the USA and built to last centuries. See our new C Series line of Affordable Barn Door and Sliding Closet Doors.

Pivoting Door

If you’re looking for the best pivot door system in the world, the Sing pivoting door might be just what you’re looking for. When it comes to large panels and pivoting doors nothing is better than a pivoting door with Sing Core inside.

Pivoting Front Doors

Pivoting front doors are a challenge for most pivot door manufacturers because in most cases, pivoting doors are taller, wider, and thicker than other types of front doors. Due to the size, your pivot front door is likely to be very heavy requiring expensive hardware and installation expense, as well as continuing expensive maintenance costs because the nature of this door is to fail due to warping, or stress and strain exerted on the hardware and structure if used regularly.

If your pivoting front door has Sing Core inside, you don’t have to worry about these expenses, because you are the proud owner of an Eco-friendly lightweight, high strength pivot front door that can be guaranteed not to warp or otherwise fail for 50 years!

Pivoting Metal Doors

Pivoting metal doors are making their mark by appearing more regularly in modern architecture and design channels. A metal pivot door is going to be extremely heavy and if welded will compromise high precision, this is a recipe for expensive regular maintenance over time, unless your metal pivot door has Sing Core inside.

Your perfect pivoting door would possess all the visual cues offered by the design your creativity birthed, without all the headaches, and pivoting metal doors are far more high precision based on the precision of Sing Core (+/- .006 tolerances) and the fact that inventor Peter Sing’s factory uses patented and patented-pending pivot door manufacturing processes which are welding-free.

Sing Core provides the top door manufacturers in the world with all types of metal doors. By far, the most popular metal doors are aluminum pivot doors, which is the most economical and high-performance metal which can be used in metal doors. If that’s what you’re looking for, then the aluminum pivot door with Sing Core inside might be the perfect match for you.

Next up are steel pivoting doors, which come in a variety of steels, such as cold rolled steel, galvanized steel, hot rolled steel, diamond plate steel, and quilted steel. Of all the different kinds of steel available, hot rolled steel is climbing the charts at an incredible rate, and the hot rolled steel pivot door is expected to be the number one selling custom-made modern pivoting doors soon.

Custom-made Modern Pivoting Doors

Long known for their custom-made modern architectural pivoting doors, this is the mainstay of the success of Sing Core. Inventor Peter Sing’s custom high-end pivot entry doors are featured in the most expensive multi-million-dollar homes across the United States and can even be found on the top floor of the highest building in America (the 89th floor of the Freedom Tower at the World Trade Center).

Interestingly enough, even though Sing’s Eco-friendly factory is nestled in the serene Pacific Northwest in a remote area of Washington State, most of the products are shipped out or exported, with nearly 80 percent of inventory being shipped to the greater New York-area.

Warp-free Wood Pivoting Doors

And if that wasn’t enough, inventor Peter Sing seems to have conquered the most prevalent of problems with wooden pivoting doors, which is widely known as warping. With the proprietary knowledge of non-warping technologies supported by hybrid patented and patent pending reinforced torsion box inventions, Sing’s True Flat Team is able to create a wood pivot door which can be guaranteed not to warp, bend, twist, or otherwise fail for 50 years.

50-year Guarantee

It’s the only way we know of to make a large pivoting door (up to 40 ft.) that can be guaranteed to remain warp-free for 50 years, including a full structure warranty. Prior to the invention of sing Core, such a feat was just not possible, especially for a large pivoting door made of wood.

Thanks to Sing’s invention, the way large pivot doors are built is changing all over the world, and you can be counted among the many who can enjoy the sense of peace which comes from owning a pivoting door with Sing Core inside, helping to make the world a better place one door at a time.

Modern Steel Door

As time keeps on slipping into the future, a new generation of modern steel door was born with an Eco-friendly approach to conservation and sustainability, a true evolution in the modern steel door industry with revolutionary implications, changing doors made of steel in the USA as we move well beyond traditional modern steel door manufacturing.

These are not your parents modern steel doors. This new generation of modern front doors uses a combination of patented and patent-pending contemporary steel door manufacturing processes to build the lightest weight, hybrid solid core steel door that is fully insulated and stronger than steel pound for pound.

This new door making technology has empowered architects and door engineers to design the most intriguing custom modern architectural steel doors that nearly defy the laws of physics, allowing the creation of extremely large modern steel doors to be used as a one-of-a-kind signature front door, all while preserving the valuable resources of Mother earth.

These unique custom modern steel doors were introduced to us by inventor, Peter Sing, who garnered national attention by offering us his patented Sing Square Log Homes which revolutionized the log home building industry, his square log invention opened the door to the new generation of modern steel doors which would follow.

Sing’s handcrafted front doors are made in the USA in his factory located in the heart of the serene Pacific Northwest without the use of welding which leads to being able to create a high precision modern steel door core material which is not only fully insulated but boasts +/- .006 in. tolerances and is stronger than solid steel pound for pound.

It is this patented modern door technology which allows Sing to partner with the biggest and best door manufacturers in the world, as well as the high-end millworks and metal fabricators to build the best architectural steel doors in the world which are not limited in size.

With this huge reduction in weight the creative impulses of eclectic visionaries are expressing themselves in the form of large modern entry doors which were just not possible to manufacture with the technology of the past. To attempt to build such a feature would have resulted in manufacturing a steel door which was very heavy, expensive to operate and maintain, and potentially dangerous throughout the manufacturing process as well as amidst the service life of the front door of yesteryear.

Not to fear, Sing Core is here. Now, you too, can have lightweight, fully insulated modern steel panel doors which are of the highest precision, stronger than steel, and are guaranteed not to warp, bend, twist, or otherwise fail for 50 years.

All you have to do is to go to your favorite manufacturer of steel entry doors, tell them the height, the width, and the thickness of the steel exterior doors, being certain to tell them you want, “Sing Core inside.” Then Sing’s factory will work together with your favorite builder of modern metal doors (residential, commercial, or industrial) to deliver to you the best modern and contemporary steel exterior doors made in the USA.

And you’re not limited to using patented Sing Core just for your modern front door, because contemporary entry doors, are not the only modern doors which are manufactured with Sing Core inside.

As you may have guessed, the next logical step for these contemporary exterior doors is to revolutionize the way modern steel garage doors are made. Not unlike our large contemporary doors, modern steel garage doors can also be made with Sing Core inside.

16′ Tall Doors in Partnership with Miller Blaker

14' Tall Oak Doors in One World Trade CenterSingCore is very proud of the work that our clients, and partners in the “Platinum Club,” are able to accomplish. Together we are working to push the limits of what is possible in the realm of custom, large, architectural doors.

 

In particular, we are pleased to present the work of our friends over at Miller Blaker and their success on the 14′ tall oak doors installed in the One World Trade Center in New York. The crown jewel of American industry, it is an honor for SingCore to take even a small part in the resurrection of this iconic building.

Top of the One World Trade Center

These 16 ft tall 3 ft wide 2.25-inch thick warp-free door panels are among the only Eco-friendly lightweight, high strength, insulated doors made in the USA that can be guaranteed not to warp, bend, twist, cup or otherwise fail for 50 years.

Features of the 14′ Tall Oak Doors

The most outstanding feature of these doors is the extreme size. Many door manufacturers will not even consider building a door at this size, because of the myriad difficulties. Without an advanced technology such as SingCore, a 14′ wood door would be extremely heavy and have the potential to warp over time.

These White Oak doors weight in at a slight 220 pounds each, around a third the weight of a similar door made without SingCore inside. Our patented and patent pending proprietary construction process allowed these doors to be not only extremely light,  but also extremely straight. We guarantee  all our “professional” grade doors last for 50-years.

Not only functional, these amazing door panels have the look and feel of solid wood. Our “green” technology means that we reduce overall resource usage and primarily use renewable resources such as wood for the construction of our panels.

Technical Features of the Millar Blaker Doors

Like all our doors, these panels were custom designed and manufactured by SingCore to meet client specifications. The design we came up with, and offer to all our clients, includes the following revolutionary features:

  • Integrated solid wood edging
  • Sound deadening
  • Internal aluminum support structs
  • Custom solid wood blocking for hardware

A Note About Success

If you’re one of the top contractors in America, when you’re called on to deliver the best tall doors to the top of the World Trade Center, you want to make sure you’re not embarrassed when your sleek white oak doors fail due to warping.

When your reputation depends on it, you need the backing of a professional company that can deliver the goods and have your back, and there’s only one company in the United States that builds large doors which can be guaranteed for 50 years.

The most exclusive architects in the world specify, “Sing Core inside,” their doors when nothing less than the very best will do, and you want your customer to be on the top of the world.

What Can We Do For You?

SingCore is constantly looking for the most challenging and rewarding jobs to test our one of a kind technology. If you are looking to advance the world doors, then contact SingCore today!

Sliding Metal Doors

Sliding metal doors were all the rage in commercial, industrial, and residential applications in the fifties and sixties. The only problem with these doors was that they were costly to maintain because these sliding metal doors were so heavy. It’s a lot of extra weight to add to a structure, especially if the structure isn’t manufactured primarily of concrete and steel.

Rollers would breakdown, bearing would fail, tracks would deteriorate, as the maintenance costs piled up over the lifespan of the door. Now, thanks to Sing Core, there is a solution for making Eco-friendly sliding metal doors which are lightweight, with Sing’s patented solid hybrid core.

The classic design and look of sliding metal doors are making a comeback in modern contemporary architectural designs and it is having huge impact, especially if the sliding metal doors are very large in size.

This new resurgence in metal sliding door design is implementing all types of metal, primarily focused upon aluminum door, stainless steel door, galvanized steel door, cold rolled steel door, and hot rolled steel door, in that order of popularity among modern architects and designers.

When contemplating the incorporation of a large metal sliding door into your design, there are many considerations to take into account. Will there be maintenance required regularly over the life of the door? In most cases, large doors will need regular maintenance to keep them functioning properly, and to repair or replace them if they either become damaged or start to warp.

Any metal door could be made of any type of available metal, though some types may be cost prohibitive, and others may be too soft to deliver consistent high performance over time, so it’s best to know your metals before you specify the material, unless, of course, price and regular maintenance are not an issue.

Aluminum and steel sliding doors definitely lead the pack over all metal sliding doors, and exterior steel doors are a hot item, and when they encounter direct sunlight, that’s when things start moving. That’s a problem which could prevent the steel sliding door from operating correctly and may cause undo stress on hardware, leading to all kinds of other problems.

When a warping metal sliding door is of concern, Sing Core is the solution, especially for modern metal doors over three-and-a-half feet wide and seven feet tall. Inventor Peter Sing can help architectural door designers to create large metal doors which can be guaranteed warp-free for fifty years.

In fact, if you have a large metal door with a 50-year warp-free guarantee, that door has Sing Core inside and it was designed, engineered, built, and finished to achieve those special results.

While Sing Core is found inside the best metal sliding doors in the world, Sing Core does not make sliding doors. Sing Core works hand-in-hand with the best millworks and metal door fabricators in the world. The result of this massive team effort to achieve such high-end sliding metal doors. No detail is overlooked.

It takes a village to build a lightweight, high strength, metal sliding door that is a one of a kind piece of work which is made to last for centuries and guaranteed to remain warp-free for at least 50 years.
