Hurricane Door

Applications -> Building Components -> Doors -> Hurricane Door

The Sing Core Hurricane Door is the best extreme weather condition door designed to be hurricane-proof without compromising the beauty and elegance of a solid hardwood door.

The secret of the Hurricane Door is in the utter strength of this special door. Certainly there are other hurricane-resistant doors, but their strength comes at a high price: Heavy weight. Sing Core Hurricane Doors are lightweight, yet stronger than steel pound for pound.

Simple Elegance

Steel hurricane doors are extremely heavy, and frankly unattractive. The beauty of the Sing Core Hurricane Door is also incorporated in the overall design of the door. The French door design is sleek styling that is inviting as well as attractive in appearance.

There are unique interior and exterior views of the door. The Sing Core Hurricane Door’s exterior surface is weatherproof fiberglass (FRP) and the interior hosts the natural solid hardwood surface of your choice.

Superior Strength

Breaking down the Sing Core Hurricane Door design, we begin with a core of patented Sing Core material, endowing the door with both lightweight, super-strength and anti-warp attributes. The core is then sandwiched between two wood skins.

The exterior surface is covered in weatherproof fiberglass (FRP) and the interior surface made of a beautiful, natural hardwood in your choice of Maple, Cherry, Oak, VG Fir or Walnut.

Your Sing Core Hurricane Door is avalable in the following Hardwood Species:


MAPLE	CHERRY	OAK	VG FIR	WALNUT

Other hardwood species or interior surfaces are available upon request.

Completely Customizable

Your Sing Core Hurricane Door can be modified to your specifications. The interior surface of your extreme weatherproof door can host nearly any material. Some of our more popular variations include aluminum, steel, plastic, fiberglass and concrete, amongst other special requests.

Any Size Door

The Sing Core Hurricane Door is available in any traditional size, and we manufacture hurricane doors up to 50 feet.

Hurricane Rating

Customer will need to perform lab tests to certify hurricane rating for local code compliance.

Refrigerated Walk-in Coolers Temperature Controlled Environments

Sing Core excels in temperature-controlled environments. When it comes to eco-friendly building materials, Sing Core is the superior decision for discerning clients seeking unsurpassed strength (stronger than steel, pound for pound), lightweight, insulation and sustainability.

You will find our Sing Core components in the best walk-in coolers, refrigeration units and temperature-controlled environments. By using an eco-friendly, insulated component, like Sing Core, you not only save money by reducing energy costs, but you’re also doing your part to save the planet.

How can you improve your existing commercial refrigeration facility?

Certainly, there are the ceiling and wall applications, but those are assumed to be pre-existing… What is your floor made out of? If it’s not Sing Core, you’re losing energy through the floor. Sing Core floors are insulated and strong enough to withstand repeated traffic of forklifts. No other flooring component can compare. Put Sing Core on your floor today.

In new installations, when Sing Core is used as the flooring substrate, the benefits are exponential. Not only is the strength off-the-charts, but uncoupling floor, insulation and when covered with concrete, will not crack, like standard concrete floors.

REDUCE DAMAGE

Sing Core components are not easy to dent or damage in comparison to other traditional building materials.

Sing Core refrigeration doors are unparalleled in the industry and outlast other doors commonly used in temperature controlled environments, and come with a 10 year warranty!

Even refrigerated trucks and trailers can benefit from Sing Core. Sing Core floored trailers are more energy efficient and are stronger than traditional plywood floors. And those back doors on your refrigerated trucks that keep taking a beating? Why not install Sing Core doors that can take all the abuse that your transportation team can dish out.

Stronger than Steel, Lighter than Steel.

Your door doesn’t have to be steel to be strong. SINGCORE Metal Composite Panels are stronger and lighter than solid steel panels. SINGCORE Aluminum and Steel Honeycomb Panels are also stronger and lighter than overhead steel garage doors, which can be dented by something as small as a golf ball. Sing offers pricing competitive with steel panels of any type.

The torsion box core holds the Sing Metal Panel flat so that it will not warp and sag. A 16lb steel hammer will easily dent a steel or vinyl door, but not a Sing Metal Panel. Because Sing panels are efficient to produce, they are more affordable than solid steel panels.

Advantages:

Eco friendly – Sing Core uses more renewable materials than any other type of composite panel. Sing Core also last many times longer than most of its competitors. It takes very little energy to produce Sing Core panels with our recycled and renewable structure material.

High Strength – Sing Core is much stronger than paper honeycomb ,aluminum honeycomb, and plastic honeycomb. A 2 in x 2 in piece of Sing Core was tested by the University of Washington and reached 660 PSI. The core grid is more than 10 times the strength of aluminum honeycomb with the same size of grids.

Lightweight – As light as 4 lbs per cubic foot.

True Flat – Sing Core aluminum will stay straight even the drastic swing by temperature and moisture change.

Fully Insulated – With EPS or urethane foam (R3.5-6.5 per inch).

Sound Deadening â€“ Sing Core panels feel like solid wood panels, they do not sound hollow like other types of honeycomb core.

Fast Delivery – Any thickness and almost any length, less than 5 ft wide, can be made with in 48 hours if it is rush order.

Garage Doors

Peter was inspired recently to find yet another use for Sing Honeycomb Panels. We’re launching a line of insulated panels for overhead garage doors. He noticed that too many nice homes have dinged up garage doors. It’s because garage doors are expensive to repair. You don’t want to replace a panel for a golf ball dent, so you let it go until the damage is beyond cosmetic. Soon, you’ve run into the garage door with your car or time has made the edges drafty, so you shell out a fortune to have it repaired in a hurry. If your door had been more sturdy from the start, you’d be on a mini vacation.

No more dented metal garage doors

This also raised the question, why so many dented doors? They’re mostly made of steel, which is strong, right? Well, I was wrong about that too. The steel used in garage doors is extremely thin, so it doesn’t get the strength we expect of steel. What can we do? We need durable doors. They’re the first defense for our home. How many times have you heard of a break-in through the garage?

Sing Honeycomb to the rescue! Our insulated panels are going to revolutionize the garage door industry. Lowe’s carries DIY insulation kits, but that won’t repair the dents and air gaps. When it’s finally time to replace the garage door, Sing will be there.We use insulation foam to support our cores. We use a veneer torsion box grid embedded in the foam sandwich core to make our panels strong and unchanging. I’ve hit them with 30lb kettle bells with not even a mark. We’re looking into the most common measurements for garage doors, and we’ll test the water this summer during remodel season. This can be huge. The garage no longer needs to be drafty and dented.

We’ll also need customers to share their photos and successes with us, so be one of the first owners of a new Sing Garage Door, and possibly earn a marketing discount.
