No more door frame repair from faulty hanging door sliding door tracks

New generation no fail sliding door 50 yr guaranteeSliding doors are both elegant and efficient alternate solutions in industrial, commercial and contemporary home applications.

The only problem with sliding doors is in the areas of ongoing repair and maintenance of your sliding doors. This problem has been largely solved by adapting Sing Core technology to the sliding door industry – especially in the area of large sliding doors and large sliding pocket doors – due to being able to create a sliding door of any size that can be guaranteed not to warp bend or twist for 50 years.

But addressing the issues of door warping is not the only problem associated with your sliding door repair and maintenance. Door frame repair can become necessary due to the failure of sliding door hardware used in cooperation with your hanging door and its performance on sliding door tracks.

For instance, many home repair, maintenance, remodeling companies and door repair services experience large volumes of calls related just to dealing with hanging closet doors which make up a significant amount of their door repairs.

Hardware the Weakest Link

The roller track itself used in the sliding door mechanism might be the weakest component in the sliding door system. Weak (or tweaked) door rails can cause the door to fail or fall of its track.

Barn-Door-Hardware-Sliding-Door-HardwareNext up come the door rollers. Door rollers (the sliding door wheels that were designed to create a smooth sliding door effect) may weaken, break down over time or may bearings within may need servicing or replacement.

Solution: Hardware that Does Not Fail

If your Sing sliding door has the right sliding door hardware, you could rest assured that failure of your sliding or pocket door off track is less likely to occur over the life of your door. Meaning you will never have to know how to repair a pocket door, or to hire expensive architectural door specialists and installers who specialize in how to hang sliding closet doors.

Thanks you the Sing sliding door hardware solution, you will never have to know how to fix a sliding door or address the issues associated with a failing hanging door track or hanging sliding door hardware at all.

The Sing sliding track system is the ultimate solution used in industrial and commercial applications for fail-proof performance for the ultimate top hung sliding door that can achieve the highest precision tolerance (within .006 in.) without having to deal with sliding door repairs.

Boeing, NASA and the Navy have more important things to do than having to address the issues of sliding door off track repair or slowing down an important project because a sliding door won’t slide. This same technology is used in our Sing Modular Sliding Doors.

Shouldn’t you contact Sing Core about your next high performance, long lasting sliding door solution?

How to Build a Wall

Building an interior wall, either fixed or temporary is an all-day affair for the do-it-yourselfer. Using patented Sing products you can build an insulated lightweight, high-strength sound-deadening wall in minutes.

There are several methods for building a wall using Sing products.

#1 – Sing Sandwich

This is the least expensive and most common way to build a wall using 4 ft. x 8 ft.

No frame is necessary

EXAMPLE

Build insulated lightweight high strength wall in minutesWalls built in minutes with insulated Sing honeycomb modular wall panels

In this example, this room conversion can be completed in just minutes with six (6) insulated Sing Sandwich panels. This could be the division of a master bedroom or office, anywhere/any time; and the whole system can be assembled, disassembled and reconfigured as necessary.

H Channel for Joining Multiple Sing Panels EconomyHow to Connect Sing Sandwich Panels

There are many methods to connect your Sing products. In the example (above) simple H channels were used to connect the panels quickly and securely.

Unlike any other temporary wall system, your Sing Modular wall panels are:

* Lightweight * High strength * Insulated * Sound deadening * Eco-friendly * Made in the USA *

#2 – Sing Panel

Unlike Sing Sandwich panels, the Sing Panel has an embedded solid wood frame around all exterior edges of the panel. Standard width of the solid wood edging is 1.5 inches but could be any size to meet your specifications.

thru-bolt-panel-connection-1How to Connect Sing Panels

Again, many options abound for connecting Sing Panels but you have the advantage of having a solid wood edge to which you could nail, screw or use many alternative connection methods available to the craftsmen, millworks and contractors who use them.

While toenailing or screwing may be the least expensive quick fix, thru-bolt joining is an effective option because of the solid wood edge, allowing you to set up and tear down without damaging the panel’s edges.

#3 – Sing Modular Wall Panel

The Sing Modular Wall Panel comes complete with the connection method pre-installed and comes in two varieties…

How to Connect Sing Modular Wall PanelsSolid lightweight high strength insulated modular wall system buscuit joiningModular Wall Panel A

The Sing Modular Wall Panel A is the default model of the Sing Modular Wall Panel. The standard size is 4 ft. x 8 ft. x 1.5 inch but is available in any size per your specifications. These modular wall panels come pre-configured for connecting via biscuit-joining.

Biscuit-joining slots are pre-installed three along the sides (length) each side and two on the top and bottom (width) of the Sing Modular Wall Panel for easy installation and secure connection.

Cam lock panels for lightweight high strength modular wall panelsCam locks for cam lock panels used in lightweight high strength modular wall panelsModular Wall Panel B

The Mercedes of the Sing Modular Wall Panel comes with high-end quick-assemble/release cam locks. These cam lock panels come in any configuration for your cam locks to meet your specifications.

Normally, in Sing modular wall applications, cam locks are only necessary at the top and bottom of the sides of the panel. There is a considerable cost difference between the cam lock technology and biscuit-joining, but for the client that only wants the best joining method of all, cam locks are by far the choice of the elite end-users.

How to Build Any Structure Insulated Lightweight High Strength

Many designers, engineers, contractors and enthusiastic do-it-yourself home builders have found the newest and best building material to build better structures more rapidly at reduced cost and labor that are:

Frameless
Sing’s patented torsion box/foam composite core creates a solid reinforced structural insulated panel that has all the structure needed built-in so you do not need to frame your structure.
Insulated
The insulation in Sing products yields an R3.5 or R6.5 rating per inch providing temperature control and sound deadening qualities.
Lightweight
Due to the responsible use of natural wood fiber for the torsion box core and lightweight rigid foam to fill the voids, these solid composite panels weight a fraction of other solid flat building materials.
High Strength
The strength of Sing’s vertical grain torsion box/rigid foam structure has been tested by the University of Washington to exceed 660 PSI. (Compare that to other aerospace panels rated at 10 to 110 PSI.)
Eco-friendly
All sing products are made in the USA using the best of natural and recycled materials requiring very little energy generating little or no waste and manufactured with high-grade, waterproof formaldehyde-free adhesives.

Due to the growing popularity of patented Sing Core’s versatility, we get many requests about how to build various types of structures. The truth of the matter is that we do not participate in the R&D process; all we do is provide the panels, posts and beams made to the specifications of the engineers and architects (see clients list). They already have their connection methods in place and we make this information available to you.

How to connect Sing caterpillar construction method

See: Connection Methods

Foundation

When you are building a structure of any type it is good to start from the ground up. Sing Core can provide the best structural foundation components that are lightweight yet stronger than steel pound for pound.

Floor

You can have the best lightweight high strength floor system requiring very little structural support because the structure is already pre-built into the insulated flooring with no need for a sub-floor. The lightweight of the structural floor panels makes building quick and easy.

Walls

Besides doors, walls are the most sought out application for Sing Panels due to their unparalleled strength, insulation and lightweight. They come in two varieties, either with (Sing Panel) solid wood edges for connecting or without (Sing Sandwich) depending on your connection method of choice. Uses of Sing walls are found amongst a wide variety of applications from warehouses, temporary structures, complete homes, storage units, garages and sheds, tiny houses, and grow rooms. Sing walls excel indoors or exposed 100% to extreme weather conditions.

Ceilings

Sing Sandwich and Sing Panel both find their home above your head as well as below your feet. The choice of using either a Sing Sandwich or Sing Panel depends on the design and configuration of your structure. As always, Sing Core manufacturers your Sing products to your specifications for load-bearing performance, insulation qualities for temperature control and sound deadening ceilings.

Roof Structure

Sing Beams are an amazing revolution to be found in the top of the best structures known to man and are still elegant in their appearance as they can look like solid wood beams and can also take on the appearance of solid aluminum, steel or any other flat building material according to your specs. The lightweight reduces labor and equipment costs as well as the risk of on-the-job injuries when working overhead on the upper structure of the building.

Roofing

Using Sing product in your exterior roof applications make more sense than any other roof material. The high strength reduces the need for roofing substructure, while the insulation provides an extra barrier to the elements.

Entire Homes Built of Sing Core

So it’s no surprise that some of the most discriminating homebuilders are using Sing products to build entire home. In fact, homes have been built entirely of Sing Sandwich, Sing Panels, Sing Post and Beam, even the furniture can be built using Sing products, everything except the glass, fixtures and the doorknob.

Torsion Box Improvement

Torsion Box (lightweight panel, sandwich panel, honeycomb panel)

1. What is Torsion Box?

The revolution or evolution of wood working, metal fabrication, plastic and cement meets the invention of patented Sing Sandwich core (see the many uses of Sing Core). Sing Panel provides the wood worker with pre-built torsion box.

Traditional-Torsion-Box-Diagram

Traditional torsion box (above) which could take all day to build

or insulated pre-built Sing reinforced torsion box (below)

torsion box plywood cutaway sing core lowes home improvement warehouse

2. Why Torsion Box?

torsion box animationBecause other methods of building a table top are basically inefficient. For instance, a table top built of a solid material will shift and move over time compromising its degree of flatness. Also solid materials that are less likely to move are extremely expensive, heavy and would only be considered for a permanent fixture.

The torsion box table top design gives as flat a surface area as possible while reducing the weight of the table top due to the hollow areas in the center of the boxes. Using a torsion box design, a craftsman can build the most flat surface using 1/10th the solid material.

3. How does torsion box work?

aka: lightweight panel, sandwich panel, honeycomb panel

Examine the theory behind the torsion box/sandwich panel/lightweight panel/honeycomb panel

please click link below:

Sandwich Panel Core

Use Sing torsion box to replace conventional wood core, particle board core for the true flat, light weight and high strength characteristics.

 There are several core materials also widely used to function as torsion box such as:

* Wood core
* Furniture wood core
* Table wood core
* Solid wood core
* Wood core table
* Wood core furniture
* Wood door core

Google Search: wood core

Why do craftsmen use wood core? Because it reduces the cost of exotic woods and by alternating grain orientation – like plywood – it can help to minimize warping; but even plywood warps and is very heavy. Using lightweight Sing torsion box may eliminate warping altogether.

* Sing torsion is 10% of the weight of solid wood based core.
* Sing torsion box is stronger than steel lbs for lbs.
* Sing torsion box is safe to work with
fewer injuries if the object is a large door
table or large piece of furniture.

Get your torsion box pre-built for you in 2 ft. x 4 ft. sections

Imagine being able to build a torsion box work table and hundreds of lightweight, high-strength true flat, non-warping panels – endless applications – without the time, energy and cost of building the torsion box yourself?

Solid wood and metal will move and adapt to temperature compromising the functionality and seal of the most elegant hand-crafted wood door. Diligent woodworkers have sought out Sing’s solution to the oversized wood door.

The same scientific solution of reinforced torsion box applies to tables and other structures that can be built without traditional wood framing for furniture or stick-built homes.
