The Benefits of Sing Core for Portable Structures

Sing Core and Your Build

Sing Core provides many benefits to permanent structures and designs, but what about portable ones? What value comes with using Sing Core for your tiny house, expo setup, or other portable structure? In this article we will answer that question, and explain how Sing Core can make your portable build so much better.

What are Portable Structures?

Portable structures are builds, projects, and other miscellaneous designs that are made to be portable. While different people may have different opinions on what makes things “portable”, it ultimately comes down to a few key requirements: size, weight, and durability. Portable things are hardly portable if they’re too big and heavy to move, and you wouldn’t even want to bother with a “portable” object that’s going to break within just a few uses.

A few examples of portable structures include: tiny houses, trades show/expo booths and displays, teardown buildings, etc. In general, portable structures need to be able to be moved either with or without disassembling them, and this presents a number of problems and possible complications.

Portable Structure Problems

Portable structures face many potential issues, particularly when being transported. Structures like tiny houses must be stable, well crafted, and tightly secured otherwise they risk severe damage during travel. Trade show walls need to be lightweight enough to be moved and assembled by one person, but sturdy enough to support product and sign boards. No matter the portable structure, it presents a significant chance of being damaged or destroyed if not built and handled properly. That’s where Sing Core comes in.

The Sing Core Solution

Sing Core alleviates the pains of dealing with portable structures significantly. Sing Core is already used to build high end tiny houses and the best trade show panels out there, and it can be used to build many more projects as well. The lightweight and strong nature of our product lends itself to being used for portable structures, as it reduces the risk of the previously mentioned complications.

Sing Core panels are much lighter than the standard building choices, no matter the size of the panel. Not only does this make transporting large portable structures possible, it also makes assembling and disassembling them much simpler and less dangerous. Trade show displays can be easily moved and assembled, pop-up structures can be put up and torn down much quicker and safer, and more. The lightweight benefits to using Sing Core for your portable structure are significant, but it doesn’t just end there. Our panels are also pound-for-pound stronger than steel, so you don’t have to worry about sacrificing strength for ease of use and transport. You also don’t have to worry about your structure warping or breaking, as all of our panels come with a 50 Year Warp-Free and Structural Guarantee.

So, by using Sing Core for your portable structure, you get a lighter, stronger, and easier to use end result, as well as a guarantee that it will last for at least 50 years. If you’re considering using Sing Core for your project, feel free to submit a quote request from our pricing page, and we’ll get in touch!

What Else Can You Use Sing Core For?

Other Uses for Sing Core

Sing Core panels make amazing door and wall panels for a variety of applications, but what other uses do they have? We already know they’re the best choice for large or custom lightweight doors, or incredibly sturdy walls, but Sing Core has a wide range of other applications.

Tables or Countertops

One of the more common non-door things we Sing Core panels used for is as a table or countertop. Our products work incredibly well for this, as some cases call for a very lightweight and easy to move surface, or others demand a large, custom-shaped table for places like a conference room. Either way, Sing Core panels work great for these applications. You can have the sturdy, warp-free, and high-quality aspects of a Sing Core door, but for your table or counter!

Mobile Cabinets or Containers

There are many different cases where one might need a mobile cabinet or container. Some businesses have rolling cabinets for secure equipment storage, while others need a durable and strong container that can be hauled from location to location. In the case of a storage cabinet, Sing Core works amazingly as it keeps the unit lightweight while also providing rigidity and security that normal, thin cabinet wood does not. Plus, with our new Security Door panel, this can take a cabinet from secure to impenetrable. Businesses that are constantly moving high-end electronics or sensitive documents can make especially good use of a Sing Core storage solution.

As for the case of strong containers meant to be hauled from place to place, Sing Core is again an excellent choice. People or businesses that find themselves regularly transporting hefty or large items may be looking for a reusable container that can guarantee protection for the cargo, without adding much to the weight of it.

Furniture

Sing Core panels can be made to unique sizes and shapes, allowing them to be used for miscellaneous furniture or similar applications. Sing Core has been used to make bunk beds, dressers, storage pieces, and more. This allows for the furniture to be transported incredibly easily, as it would weigh a fraction of a normal unit of the same furniture. We even use furniture made from Sing Core products in our own office, and they are still holding strong and working incredibly well.

Floors

We often think of Sing Core panels being used as doors and walls, but they work just as well as floors. Particularly the floors of upper building levels, as they are incredibly lightweight, but have the structural integrity to withstand walking on. If you’re building a tiny house or some other small structure, using Sing Core for your upper floors may be your best bet, as it allows for easy construction and transportation.

And More!

Sing Core is more than just a door or wall panel, it’s a core that can be used in nearly any aspect of construction. Floors, stairs, furniture, and much more become a possibility with Sing Core. Plus, you still get our 50-Year Structural Guarantee, so you know you won’t need to do any replacing for a long time. When you look around at the things around you or think of new project ideas, consider Sing Core to make it the best it can be!

The Garage Door Solution

Sing Core Garage Doors

The most common problem for garage doors is the continuous exposure to the outdoor elements. Which subjects one side of the door to daily changes in temperature while the other side sees a constant interior temperature. This is where a solid wood garage door would fail and crack due to the wood expanding and contracting inside the door. This is a major flaw which requires frequent maintenance, such as repainting and resealing to prevent water damage.

Now with a Sing Core door, a garage door can have any skin from metal to old growth Douglas-fir.

Aluminum and metal skinned

Aluminum is a great option for sliding barn doors. The aluminum produces a lightweight and strong finished product. To seal metal and aluminum doors from the elements we have discovered the perfect solution, vinyl wrap.

Vinyl Wrap

Vinyl wrap will adhere to any door’s surface. The glue will seal out any moisture. The vinyl is fully customizable to any design of your liking and will provide full UV protection of your door. Learn how to build a true flat long lasting carriage door here.

Wood Skinned

The best choice for a wood garage door is AB plywood or marine plywood. There’s no need to worry about the plywood cracking with the inclusion of proper finishing when using Sing Core thanks to our patented and patent-pending torsion box “honeycomb” design. This is why they are used on our Sing Core homes.

Wood Stave

A superior addition to any door is to add wood stave to the face. Our most common wood stave products are clear cedar and douglas fir. With wood stave applied, the door looks like it’s made of solid wood.
Unlike a thin .020 wood veneer; wood stave can be sanded and repaired if damaged. Making wood stave a more durable solution to high traffic areas or commercial applications.
Does your customer need a rugged wood stave skin or a thin veneer? Ask one of our knowledgeable sales engineers about the pros and cons of different skin options and they would be happy to walk you through your options.

1/8″ wood stave is all that is necessary to make your door look like it is made completely out of solid wood. But the secret inside is that your door is exponentially stronger and more stable than a standard solid wood door. Your Sing Core door is also almost a third of the weight of a comparably sized solid wood door. Being lightweight expands the choices of hardware, reduces labor costs to install, and is safer in inclimate weather. This applies to all doors with Sing Core inside; pivot doors, sliding doors, pocket doors, carriage doors, bi fold doors, and other doors with unique hardware configurations. Learn more about wood stave here.

Large Pivot Door 126.5 x 60 x 1.75 White Oak High Strength Straightest Lightest in the Industry

We have a very large inventory of wood stave in stock. We will sell the wood stave by the square foot and have a wholesale option. Wholesalers are eligible for discounted pricing on wood stave lots. Contact our sales team for details about wood stave lots here.

Below are a few of the other examples of garage/barn doors we make.

I Need Your Help to Build the Best Tiny House

We want you to help us build the best new generation of expandable tiny house in the world. We are moving into a new tiny home direction and we’re looking for a few good people, like you, or if not you, like someone you know. So, this opportunity is open, right now, for the right person, so please take the time to take a look at this and pass it onto the right person, if necessary and have him or her contact us right away.

Sing Core is in the process of creating a new generation of Tiny House structure building material. Our clients have built the best Tiny Homes using patented Sing Core and to say they were high-end would be an understatement as they could be valued for as high as $5 million.

Earn Extra Income at Home

You can join our growing team and community and increase your income earning potential considerably. First of all, if you are handy and have your own tools and workspace, you could be a Sing tiny home builder. We’re looking for two types, the woodworker(s) and the utility installers, those whom we will supply the materials to, and those who will provide the parts as well and will be compensated commensurately, or both. If you are enthusiastic about tiny homes and have the right skills, we need you. This could be anyone, and could be a great working retirement opportunity if you love it and are passionate about it.

Local is Better

Sure, we can work with anyone, anywhere, but we would be thrilled if you lived somewhat locally, like in the Pacific Northwest, and we will do whatever we can to accommodate any special arrangements to make this work for the right person.

No-fail Compensation

Our generous compensation program is designed for you, the tiny house enthusiast, who has the basic skills necessary to create a unique tiny house project, the likes of which, has never been seen before. You can work at home, in your own shop, with your own tools, or come and work with us here. This is a project you can be proud to have participated in, and it can help make the world a better place.

Shared Revenue Tiny House Hotels

While networking and building this new generation of tiny house to integrate into the tiny home community, there emerges a trend whereby Sing’s tiny houses may be available to everyone from RV park owners and operators to landowners, project developers, and community helps organizations.

Sing Tiny Homes will help book your tiny house for rent through their network, and you, the host of the tiny house will split the proceeds of the rental receipts 50/50. You supply the space to host and the hookups, Sing Core supplies the tiny house, and we share the revenue.

It is a concept worth considering, especially if you’re entertaining the idea of moving into the tiny house rental arena.

It’s What We Do

Sing Core has done it again. Long ago we established ourselves as having the most revolutionary insulated lightweight high-strength panels in the world. They’ve been used in so many ways by the elite for science, military, outer space, government agencies, galleries, and in the homes of the most prominent billionaires. Undoubtedly the most expensive way to build a high-end tiny house in the world, which has been done by those rare people who want the best tiny home at any price.

We Need You

This is a huge leap for us to go into this new phase, changing the way tiny homes are being designed and built from the ground up, and we need a few visionaries with the skills to help us produce prototypes that include plumbing, electrical, and finish-work. We need your help in showcasing our material and making it functional and elegant in presentation.

New Expandable Design

Just to let you know what we’re looking at, this new concept is an expanding tiny house concept that starts with a central box unit that incorporates the kitchen and bath. This box is nested inside a series of nested boxes that expand upward and outward from the kitchen/bath “heart” of the home.

Open and Closed System Tiny Homes

Sing Core designs include both open and closed systems, so that these tiny homes can be deployed to any location with or without hookups. If hookups are available, such as those that would be required for traditional RV hookups, just park your tiny house, block it, and plug it in. The closed system requires no water/sewer hook up, uses a pre-installed tank system, and receives service once-a-week. With this new generation of closed system tiny house, Sing Core has revenue share opportunities available with no front end cost to property owners/managers. Talk to a representative for more information on how to get into this new faction of the hospitality industry.

We Need You Now

We have started construction on this project, and we need you now to lend us your tiny house enthusiasm, expertise, and ideas to see this project which will change the world of how small homes are designed and built.

What Changes to the Industry?

First, the expanded nested boxes concept is unique, but when we get to the next phase of manufacturing around the nation and the globe, all tiny houses will be built locally, with varying degrees of manufacture participation. Consider this, even a retired couple who love tiny houses can crowd-manufacture these tiny homes for their geographical location, by assembling and beautifying the components you are helping us design today.

Contact Us

If you would like to join our team and share this dream with us, contact us as soon as possible, as once we have assembled this team, we will no longer be accepting applications, and we will be focusing intensely on this project, and we’ll drop you a line when we are ready to introduce you to this new exciting tiny house method.

Thank You

Thank you for your years of support, for those of you who know what a great tiny house building material Sing Core can be, and now it’s only getting better, thanks to your support, and that of our high-end clients who are making all this possible.
