1. True flat straight and will stay flat
2. Lightweight 1/3 the weight (or more)
3. High strength stronger than steel lb. for lb.
4. Insulated starting at R3
5. Sound-deadening starting at SCT 30
6. Resistant to warp, twist & rot to meet your specifications
7. Longevity built to last for centuries
8. Guaranteed 10 to 50 year guarantee
9. Eco-friendly sustainable true green technology

Only one door company can deliver a sliding door that delivers high marks in all those important features. See our comparison chart comparing Sing Core doors panels to other door core materials.

Non warping wood bi fold sliding doors insulated room dividers sound deadeningSo if you’re looking for closet ideas, sliding closet doors or double closet doors for your wardrobes that are true flat and stay flat without warping or twisting, then you might consider the Sing Core alternative.

Our industrial sliding doors and marine sliding doors are specially designed to survive the rigorous changes in the elements including exposure to extreme weather conditions.

The secret lies within the core of the sliding door which is basically one of our honeycomb panels (which is also available in aluminum honeycomb panels) that is the foundation for the superior performance of sliding doors that must remain perfectly straight to reduce maintenance over time.

Even though any Sing sliding door can be finished in any flat exterior building material, the aluminum sliding door is extremely popular and can easily have any other surface material, like any wood species, concrete, glass, FRP, HPL, and can be made to be water-resistant or bullet-proof.

The Sing sliding door is not only a light door that reduces strain and wear on the door hardware, but it is also stronger than metal hanging sliding doors and even make magnificent plastic sliding doors.

And when it comes to big sliding doors, our custom oversize sliding doors continue to deliver the best results enjoyed by the top millworks and door companies in the world service the most demanding high-end users.

5x20 ft Galvanized Steel Magnetic Sign Display Panels Lightweight High Strength Guaranteed true flat

Galvanized steel Sing panel (above) is made of 20 gauge thickness .40 inch thick and weighs 1.65 lbs. per sq. ft.

Sing galvanized steel is lightweight, insulated, stronger than steel pound for pound and just one of the metal panels in the Sing Metal Collection.

Sing galvanized steel features a less expensive exterior finish that is impervious to the elements resisting rust, wear and tear and rot more effectively than other forms of metal surface materials.

While remaining structurally sound, galvanized metal treatment reduces maintenance due to incidental damage or compromise.

The galvanized surface can sustain damage without compromising the protective surface material.

One of the most impressive attributes of Sing galvanized metals is these steel panels are not limited in size, including large and oversized without having to join separate pieces on job site. Available in almost any length, width, thickness… even custom shapes.

For instance, our most popular sized Sing galvanized steel panels are 5 ft. wide by 20 ft. long. We do this every day, and each one is the Eco-friendly alternative that is proudly Made in the USA of the same structural material that is used as substrate prior to adding wood-based door surface material (or paint grade) true flat doors featuring our 50 year guarantee to be true flat and stay flat. These galvanized steel panels excel in temperature resistance, high tensile strength and durability.

Seamless 5 ft. x 20 ft. x 1 in. galvanized magnetic panel

Sing galvanized metal is sought after for industrial signage, building industry, trade show displays, store fixtures, furniture manufacture, marine industry, and due to its unique ability to outlast other materials with superior corrosion resistance.

Other trending applications include automotive industry, construction, electrical towers, large magnetic signs, equipment enclosures, sheds, tiny houses, ramps, temporary bridges, modular temporary buildings, structures and flooring, industrial machine shops and assembly lines.

Galvanized steel equipment enclosures

Used in your manufacturing plant as a high precision work bench as an alternative to traditional cold rolled steel or wood base work benches that are made of solid material. The traditional solid material will move according to the temperature or moisture change. Alternatively,  Sing galvanized metal panels are made of patented Sing Core – which is made of 90% air – and will have little or no movement, especially when compared to any other solid material. Sing core is made with +/-  .008 inch instrument grade precision or less unlike average wood or metal which could not match such high tolerances.

MAGNETIC GALVANIZED PANELS

Sing galvanized magnetic panels are great for displaying artwork, documents, pictures and important information while maintaining your great interior design. Perfect for any location including the office, kitchen, kid’s room, and garage using magnets to display so you don’t damage your originals.

Used as exterior signage, magnetic and/or display panels, Sing galvanized delivers high precision and superior performance results. Perfect for use as a magnetic wall in the home or office for organizing your data center.

Depending on your application(s) and specification(s) only Sing galvanized metal panels can be guaranteed to remain structurally sound for 50 years (though they are designed to last for centuries).

Sing-composite-lightweight-metal-panels-aluminum-stainless-steel-galvanized-high-strengthIntended for use where greater corrosion protection is required without painting. Sing galvanized steel panels are lightweight and therefore require less manpower, heavy equipment and/or transportation costs.

This provides the end-user with huge cost-saving for delivery and installation more safely with the added advantage of saving on-the-job injuries.

When evaluating Sing galvanized metals for damages, a simple visual inspection will reveal whether or not the surface material has been compromised to the point of requiring maintenance.

The most cost-effective severe weather resistant material without compromise for strong hurricane proof* building material such as walls, roofs and/or floors for any emergent or disaster application perfect for battling hazardous weather conditions.

Sing 4×8 Galvanized wall panels are also used as roof panels, wall panels, trailer siding & roofing, billboards, kick plates, floor plates, curtain walls, movable house, display trestle, vehicle wagon, yacht interior & exterior, building exterior wall face-lifting, balcony, comportment, moveable metal storage shed and  food truck walls.

What Are Sing Honeycomb Panels?

Sing Honeycomb is a sandwich panel composite material with built in structural grids. Our grids are made of vertical grain renewable veneer wood fiber, and foam. We construct our Singcore in a fashion similar to torsion box technology most commonly found in the airplane industry. This technology is what allows our panels remain strong, lightweight, and flat without denting, cracking, and warping. See a comparison here. Inventor Peter Sing uses this torsion box technology, along with wood fiber and foam to create patented Sing Honeycomb: the incredibly strong, true flat, lightweight, renewable composite material of the future. Check out our products section to see a few different applications.

Sing  Honeycomb is stronger than solid wood, plastic, metal, glass, brick, and  concrete in terms of lbs. per lbs comparison.
Sing Core factory doors are very light weight Lightweight
Sing Honeycomb sandwich panels are strong, flat, and lightweight. A  4’ x  8’ x 1 ½” panel with 1/8 “ Luan skins, and solid wood edging weighs in at about 55 lbs. A standard sheet of plywood weighs in at about 96 lbs.

Sinc Core panels are resistant to rot Rot Resistant
Even without coating, Sing Honeycomb sandwich panels outlast plywood, solid wood, MDF, and particle board. Plywood and engineered wood rot crack because of the weak glue layers. Sing Honeycomb panels last because underneath the skins lie Singcore, which keeps the panels flat through torsion box technology, and therefore doesn’t allow the panel to crack.
