If you’re garage plans include looking to convert your garage into livable space, garage apartment, work shop, guest room or even an office, then you need to replace your current garage door with a patented SingCore carriage door. The most airtight door in the world can be fully guaranteed for structure strength and to remain warp-free for 50 years. No other carriage door is so lightweight, nor do they have the highest strength.

1. How Do You Do It?

See: How to Build a Sing Door

2. Why SingCore doors are the best choice for your garage door if you’re looking to convert your garage to a livable space:

Patented SingCore is changing the technology used and how to build a door with insulation for garage door. It starts with the successful story of building a high end door for a Manhattan penthouse.

SingCore door panels offer the best guarantee in the large door industry: 50 Years Warp-free and Structure Guarantee

If you are in the high end large door business, you know that no manufacturer wants to make a large door due to potential problems with warping. All the doors made of wood base core or skin are going to warp, it’s just a matter of time; sometimes within a month following the door installation compromising the garage door weather seal.

SingCore uses a combination of patented and patent pending large door technology to keep your Sing precision garage door straight and true, which keeps your garage with apartment plans air tight. Maintaining weather seal is so important for your garage with living space.

Garage doors deal directly with weather conditions, which is the primary reason for distortion in your garage door. Whether it’s a carriage door or overhead garage door, it’s almost impossible to keep it airtight due to their natural design and characteristics.

If you’re looking for a warm or cool garage conversion maximizing extra space for your comfortable living garage with apartment, SingCore garage door is the only choice, guaranteed by inventor Peter Sing.

3. How to design Sing carriage door

Special or custom order your Sing carriage door by filling out the order form (you must be in the trade or hire a trade professional to order it for you).

a) Design Look. Begin with surface design and by adding molding to create any type of appearance. Add glass or light treatment, cut Sing sandwich or Sing panel then add glass

b) Skin Choice. Very lightweight and weather proof skin will be 1/8 inch marine plywood, aluminum, FRP, HPL, etc…

c) Choice of Thickness

d) Strength Thickness of Sing Panel: Doubling the thickness will increase 4 times the strength. Standard thickness of sing panel is 1.5 inch and 2 inches but custom size thickness is almost unlimited

e) Edge Treatment. Sing sandwich panels are easy to cut to any size as well as adding the trim to create a solid edge to adapt to any size of door opening. If ordering Sing panel, the standard edge is 1.25 inch solid wood but with extra money you may order any size of solid wood on 4 sides of Sing panel

f) Size Limit of Sing Panel. Almost no limit for height and width of any Sing carriage door. Tell us the size and we will prove it to you

g) Window Light Cut Out. You may install any shape and almost any size of window at any location of the Sing door panel. (see pic.)

h) Man Door. We could provide man door cut off and install a man door in the Sing door panel for your easy access of the garage space without open the entire garage door.

I) Hard Point. Solid wood implant.

Many Colors

This exciting new slatwall alternative comes in a variety of colors; and the color of the panel is the color of the material. In the event of scratch or minor damage, it is barely noticeable.

Our patented torsion box/foam composite solid core substrate is the secret ingredient to the world’s best countertops made of wood butcher block. The most high-end millworks and custom cabinetmakers from coast to coast use Sing butcher block as their source material, especially for clients who demand high precision and performance from their butcher block surfaces.

Not to mention the lightweight advantages of the Sing butcher block countertop in comparison to other butcher block countertops. Being so lightweight makes transportation and handling easy and convenient and less expensive than heavier weight butcher block countertops.

Sing butcher block countertops have all the majesty and beauty of traditional butcher block countertops without all the headaches associated with wood countertops. All premium Sing solid surface countertops can be guaranteed not to warp, allowing your trouble-free enjoyment of your butcher block countertop for life.

sing-wood-butcher-block-counter-topButcher Block Island

In the center of your kitchen is the heart of your culinary activities that can be ultimately highlighted by the natural beauty and elegance of a Sing butcher block island to showcase your work area. Our most popular natural wood surface area for upscale kitchen carts and islands is the butcher block wood countertop.

The best of all kitchen countertop materials is the Sing butcher block counter top featured on only the most high-end homes and television cooking television shows that will accept nothing but the best kitchen countertops. Why not use the best butcher block island top to create the best butcher block cart?

Butcher Block Table

Your guests will be impressed when you adorn your dining room with the natural elegance of a table that hosts a beautiful Sing butcher block tabletop. Like our prestigious clientele, you might consider using Sing butcher block as your top choice for all your butcher block table tops.

A Sing butcher block dining table leaves a lasting impression, and remains lightweight enough to be able to move your butcher block table with ease. The lightweight Sing butcher block table top will also help to protect an expensive wood flooring (which could also be a Sing product) material.

Your Sing butcher block kitchen table can be one of the best butcher block tables around.

Butcher Block Workbench Top

butcher block workbench top high precision lightweigh high strength heavy duty non warpingAgain, in the discriminating workshop, where high precision raises the bar for workbench surface areas, the Sing butcher block workbench top outperforms other table top materials.

Sing Core has the highest precision core material (+/- .006 inch) that maintains unparalleled flatness and takes a beating in terms of exposure, density and barometric changes in the environment over time. The advanced composite technologies at the disposal of the engineers at Sing Core’s true flat headquarters can guarantee high precision results under even the most rigorous conditions.

Think about using Sing Core at the heart of your next exemplary butcher block workbench top material for stellar results.

Problem: Wood Butcher Block Will Fail

Simply due to the natural wood grain material of the wood components of the butcher block surface area, there will be a natural bending, twisting and counter-torque that will keep the material somewhat straight, but when it warps, it is problematic to have to deal with.

Managing a warped butcher block countertop, island, table, kitchen cart or workbench can be a hassle; may require disassembly, sanding and refinishing.

Sing Butcher Block to the Rescue

Avoid all these ongoing maintenance problems by starting with patented Sing non-warping butcher block available in almost any size.

Accept no substitutes. Top architects are specifying Sing Core butcher block as their material of choice; maybe you should, too.
