The Making of a Sing Core Door – From Concept Drawing to Finished Door

The Making of a Sing Core Door

When you first consider ordering a Sing Core door panel, you may wonder what all goes into making your order? If Sing Core is really such a unique and high-quality product, how is it made? Today, let’s dive into the process of taking a Sing Core custom door from concept drawing to finished door.

Step 1: Quote

The first step to any Sing Core door is to request a quote. You can do this by clicking the orange “Pricing” button in the top right corner of most of the pages on our website. This will take you to our order form where you will need to provide the details of your job. These include measurements, door style, use, and more. From there, your completed form gets sent to our sales team, who process your request and reach out to you with a quote. Sometimes they’ll ask for more information, but by the end of this conversation you’ll have a price and date of completion estimate.

Step 2: Shop Drawing

After you accept the quote and decide to move forward with your order, it gets sent off to the production team. The production team starts by making a shop drawing, which is a detailed drawing of your order, showing the exact measurements and shape needed to make your door a reality. The shop drawing is sent to you for one last round of approval, and then it gets put in the factory’s queue to be made.

Step 3: Building

Finally the time to actually make your order has arrived! The factory team starts by analyzing the shop drawing and making a plan for your door. Sometimes the plan is simple, but in some highly-customized-order scenario, there may be additional steps or materials needed. They then create the base of your door order: a Sing Honeycomb Core panel built to the specifications of your project. We use patented and patent-pending technology and designs to make this high end, lightweight, and incredibly strong panel. The panel is then framed and protected with high quality wood sheets, which completes your order. If you requested any additional features for your order, like in the case of a Sing Core Security Panel, then those added features would be added at various times throughout the process, depending on what they are.

Step 4: Wrapping Up

Next, we take your order and package it for shipping. This can vary in execution depending on some factors, such as size, location, and urgency. Many orders will have custom crates built to protect the panel during shipping if possible. The panel goes through one final inspection before being loaded up, and then you will be notified that your order has shipped.

Process Summarized

Your order goes through many stages to ensure quality and accuracy, and we work with you regularly to make sure we’re all on the same page when it comes to your custom order. All orders are appreciated equally at Sing Core, and we guarantee the same high quality, lightweight and sturdy product for everyone. In addition, you get our 50 Year Warp-Free and Structural Guarantee with every panel ordered.

Thank you for your interest in using Sing Core for your custom doors. If you have any questions, feel free to submit a quote request and our Sales team will be happy to assist you!

Innovate Your Build with Sing Core

Innovative Design Possibilities with Sing Core

A door says a lot about your home or office, and designers are creating the biggest, best, and most beautiful door designs for their projects. Many of these grand doors use Sing Core panels due to their strength, lightweight nature, and customizability. Let’s go over some of the best doors made with Sing Core.

Massive Pink Door

This huge door was installed in a luxury home, and stands 13 feet tall and 3 feet wide. This beautiful door features a hardwood frame and was crafted to artisanal quality. This door operates as a hinged door, and can be easily opened and closed despite its size due to the lightweight nature of Sing Core panels. Due to this, the hinges will last far longer than they would with a traditional heavy door. Between the excellent quality, long life span, and the beautiful work done by the architect and design team, this bright door will bring color and life to the residence for an incredibly long time.

Large Gray Door

This massive pivot door is 5 foot 3 inches wide and nearly 10 feet tall. It serves as the exterior door to a home, and offers a huge entryway that is not common with traditional doors. The door swings open as a pivot door, similar to a hinge door, but the hardware usually attaches to the top and bottom of the door as opposed to mounted on the side. Sing Core panels work very well for pivot doors, as their customizable design can be made to account for the different hardware. This door’s massive size would lead to it being incredibly heavy and hard to operate with other building methods, but with Sing Core it remains easy to use and looking great.

Laserfiche Sliding Doors

The Laserfiche California Headquarters worked with Sing Core to make several doors for their offices, this large set of corner sliding doors being the highlight piece. This high end large door slides back along the squared walls to reveal the room within, opening up a huge entryway. It can also be closed to seal the room off in a box manner. Sing Core panels work especially well for sliding doors, as their combination of unique hardware and function, plus the limitations that are put in place by the mechanisms present many challenges when it comes to weight and size. A set of sliding doors of this size would certainly be unwieldy, require even more expensive hardware, and would have many other drawbacks. With Sing Core, these doors remain light and easy to use despite their size, and as such easily roll along their tracks to open and close.

Sing Core is proud to be involved in so many important projects, and we are confident that our panels allow more innovative and fun designs. Whether you’re working on a large door, custom shaped door, or a door with any other number of features, contact Sing Core to learn how we can enhance your project and build the best door together.
