Building Barn Doors with Sing Core

When it comes to designing and constructing barn doors, selecting the right materials is crucial to achieve a perfect blend of aesthetics, functionality, and durability. One material that checks all of those boxes is Sing Core, a panel renowned for its exceptional qualities. In this article, we will explore why Sing Core is the best choice for building barn doors and other large exterior doors, as well as how it surpasses traditional materials in terms of strength, versatility, and sustainability.

Unmatched Strength and Stability

One of the primary reasons why Sing Core is the ideal choice for barn and exterior doors is its unmatched strength and stability. Constructed using high end materials, Sing Core features a lightweight patented honeycomb core pressed between two sturdy exterior layers. This composition results in an incredibly strong and rigid material that can withstand heavy usage and resist warping, bowing, or twisting over time. Barn doors made with Sing Core maintain their structural integrity even in demanding environments, ensuring long-lasting performance.

Lightweight and Easy to Handle

Despite its exceptional strength, Sing Core is remarkably lightweight compared to traditional building materials such as solid wood or metal. This feature not only eases the installation process but also makes handling and operation of the barn doors hassle-free. The reduced weight minimizes strain on hinges and tracks, resulting in smoother operation and a prolonged lifespan of the door hardware. Whether you are installing a single barn door or a set of double doors, Sing Core’s lightweight nature significantly simplifies the installation process.

Versatility in Design

Sing Core offers unparalleled versatility in design, making it an ideal choice for barn doors in various architectural styles. Whether you prefer a rustic, contemporary, or traditional look, Sing Core can accommodate your design preferences. Its compatibility with different surface materials allows for endless customization options, including wood veneers, metal panels, vinyl, and more. With Sing Core, you can create barn doors that seamlessly blend with the overall aesthetics of your space while adding a touch of uniqueness and style.

Longevity and Maintenance

Barn doors constructed with Sing Core offer unparalleled longevity and low maintenance requirements. The material’s inherent strength and resistance to warping or twisting ensure that the doors maintain their original appearance and functionality over an incredibly long time. Unlike solid wood, Sing Core is not susceptible to moisture-related issues, such as warping, making it highly suitable for barn doors exposed to varying environmental conditions. Additionally, every Sing Core door comes with a 50 Year Warp-Free and Structural Guarantee, so you can be confident in your door for many, many years to come.

Conclusion

When it comes to building barn doors or other exterior doors, Sing Core unquestionably emerges as the top choice. Its combination of strength, stability, versatility, and sustainability sets it apart from traditional materials. With Sing Core, you can create barn doors that not only exhibit exceptional durability but also offer endless design possibilities.

Sing Core is in the unique position to partner with the designers, architects, custom millworks, builders and installers of the best doors in the world. What do the best high precision, lightweight, high strength, guaranteed warp-free doors in the world have in common? The best ones have Sing Core™ inside. See: Clients list

In this respect, Sing Core is an important OEM supplier likened to Briggs & Stratton, BBS Wheels, Johnson Controls, Lear, Delphi, TRW, Intel and AMD. These companies, like Sing Core, do not manufacture the end product but supply the product manufacturers with the quality components that enable their clients to deliver superior results to their customers without having to create separate production facilities for building specialized parts.

Even though Sing Core does not build doors, our OEM door blanks help the best door manufacturers create the best doors that are built to last for centuries and can be guaranteed not to warp, bend twist or otherwise fail for a full 50 years for their intended (designed and built) use.

How Does the Sing OEM Process Work?

Establishing the Need of Sing Core

There are many reasons that door manufacturers seek out patented Sing Core as their OEM door substrate; some of the most popular ones are:

Creating a Superior Door Line

Some door manufacturers are looking for ways to distinguish themselves from other door manufacturers. They seek out an OEM relationship with Sing Core to design and build an ultra premium line of doors that have unique characteristics that cannot be found by using any other door substrate material.

BIG Door

Many door manufacturers have problems with large doors (especially over 7 ft. tall) in that while they look magnificent upon installation, dealing with door warp on a regular basis is a constant maintenance cost associated with big doors.

This is where Sing Core door substrates shine because the substructure of the core itself is a combination of wood torsion box (using vertical grain matrix framing) filled with recycled rigid foam creates a lightweight, high strength solid substrate that will retain its original shape and structural integrity over time; higher precision and lasts longer than any other known door building material.

That’s why more and more, you are finding Sing Core™ inside some of the biggest aircraft hangar doors, large sliding barn doors, factory doors, large commercial doors, warehouse doors and large garage doors.

Non-warp Door

Sing Core™ is the only door core material that enables our door manufacturers to deliver doors that do not warp regardless of size or external materials in either interior and/or exterior doors, if they are designed by our Non-warp True Flat Specialists. Sing Non-warping door blanks are available in any type, style, shape, exterior skin and/or composite configuration.

Insulated Door

Insulated doors offer enhanced separation between two areas separated by an opening, doorway or egress point. Sing Core insulation starts at R3.5 per inch and goes up from there, based on architectural specifications. Insulated door are of primary interest to architects, designers and engineers seeking soundproof door, hurricane doors* or other weatherproof door where an insulated door is specified.

Security Doors

Sing Core is of primary importance in security doors of substantial size. Large security doors are difficult to manage normally due to weight; this problem can be solved with the Sing solution. A security door can be used in a variety of circumstances and applications including impact doors, and bulletproof doors.

Using Sing Core™ inside, impact resistant doors don’t have to be heavy weight, which causes unnecessary stress and strain on both the hardware and structure, while delivering all the security desired including increased privacy due to innate door insulation.

Specialty Doors

Sometimes a custom door manufacturer, millwork or door manufacturer faces a job that requires doors with unique attributes to accommodate a particular usage following installation.

Specialty doors may need particular characteristics to meet the requirements of the end user. Architects, designers and engineers can use Eco-friendly Sing Core™ inside to have greater control over:

Weight
Strength
Insulation
Structure Non-warping
Sound deadening
Impact resistance
Waterproof Any size
Any style
Any performance
Any exterior surface
