Revolutionary Garage Doors

This new generation of garage and barn doors features groundbreaking technology allowing garage door designers and engineers to reimagine their garage door possibilities exponentially by using new garage door panel surface materials for evolutionary wooden, fiberglass, HPL, aluminum, or other metal garage doors.

One of the primary reasons why Sing Core is the ideal choice 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.

There is no door too small or too large for Sing Core’s aerospace inspired “honeycomb” wood and foam core construction. We guarantee your panel will be perfectly straight (to AWI standards) for 50 years or more! This makes Sing Core the perfect companion for your high insulation value sliding doors, where exact straightness is the key to a great seal for a sliding door.

Garage Door

Garage doors are used as a barrier to protect your vehicle and personal items. Regular garage doors tend to fail in keeping their form and end up weathering. These doors are also not insulated and give easy access to outsiders to enter your home.

Sing Core’s patented door panel design is the leader in the industry of custom, lightweight, and sturdy doors. They are lightweight enough to easily function as a garage door, whether folding, sliding, or otherwise and provide exceptional insulation during the colder seasons. Our Sing Core products will help keep the the warm air in the garage making it more enjoyable.

Our custom production line is capable of making custom doors in any quantity. Whether you need a one off door for a remodel project or custom high end home, or you need 1000 doors for your development, Sing Core can be your supplier.

Barn Door

Sing’s patented and patent pending technologies empower his True Flat Team to create these amazing hybrid solid composite cores which weigh a fraction of other solid wood-based structure cores. Lighter weight barn doors mean lighter weight hardware and less stress and strain on the structure. This prevents the need for constant ongoing maintenance to the barn door, a huge savings over time.

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.

You might not need bulletproof barn doors, but you will enjoy having lightweight large barn doors that are stronger than steel pound for pound. Sing’s large barn door core material is independently rated at 660+ PSI and is featured inside some of the highest security doors and impact doors in the world.

Carriage Door

Sing Core Carriage Doors are imbued with unique characteristics that separate them from any other commercially available standard carriage door in the world. For instance, Sing Core Carriage Doors are available in outswing (standard), inswing, overhead, barn door and sliding door configurations to meet your individual requirements and specifications.

Due to their superior strength and load capacity in comparison to carriage doors made of other materials, Sing Core Carriage Doors are keenly suited for extreme weather conditions including temperature and humidity variations.

Sing Core Carriage Doors are the perfect adornment for your garage, studio or barn, giving you an unsurpassed aesthetic appeal while being functional and extremely structurally superior.

Each Sing Core Carriage Door is a precision garage door that is handcrafted in the USA and custom built to your specifications. While capturing the beauty of century old carriage doors, Sing Core Carriage Doors are a fusion of old world technology and space-age technology to create a carriage door that is brilliantly adaptable, functional and will last for centuries.

Bifold Doors Weatherproof Wood Garage Door

Many exterior doors – especially wood exterior doors – are problematic due to the nature of being exposed to the weather and environmental changes of heat and moisture. Exterior facing doors become even more challenging if they are over 7 ft tall or 3 ft wide.

Coast to Coast these warp-free wood exterior doors are not just beautiful in their appearance but are the highest precision insulated lightweight, high strength doors in the world, and they’re proudly made in the USA.

Even the most expensive high-end large door cannot be warranted not to fail if it is over 10 ft tall and/or 4 ft wide. The most exclusive millworks and custom door manufacturers will agree to make the door to architectural door specifications, but will offer no warranty, because, they say

All Doors Warp

The most savvy door manufacturers refer to SingCore to help build the doors using Premium Sing Door Blanks available in any size for any type of door, if the client demands having the best door in the world.

Large Warp Free Wood Exterior Doors

SingCore has solved the problems associated with large exterior door fails, by providing millworks and door manufacturers with the most high precision (+/- .006 in) insulated warp free lightweight high strength door core, that can be made in any size and all doors styles.

Large bifold doors exterior warp free wood doors hinged carriage doors insulated

16 ft x 8 ft door opening featuring (4) 4 ft x 8 ft bifold doors as carriage door

For instance, these carriage doors are bifold doors that feature all the characteristics of having SingCore inside. The best proof is large wood exterior doors facing both Pacific and Atlantic oceans, as we work with the best door companies from coast to coast in the USA. In this example, the exterior wood doors in this home are all perfectly straight on these weatherproof non-warping doors, even though they feature wood stave on the exteriors exposed to the moisture, sun, wind and rain of coastal weather patterns. Still these doors can be fully guaranteed not to warp, bend, twist or otherwise fail (including structure) for a full 50 years. That’s right

Guaranteed for 50 Years

Make a Whole Wall Disappear

Then there’s this case; What if you wanted the whole exterior wall to be a door. Here’s a job where the client wanted to whole exterior wall converted to bifold doors. No problem, if they have Sing Core inside.

Just an ordinary exterior wall. Right?

Extraordinary exterior bi fold doors!

Plus, if your invisible door has Sing Core inside, you get the added safety and security of having a fully insulated sound deadening folding retractable wall which is also highly effective in maintaining consistent temperature control on either side of the building, inside or outside.

Large garage doors are the best example of what can be possible with would have previously been thought of as impossible doors. That is to say doors that were too large were assumed to have problems because all big doors fail. Even so, to minimize failure, they are manufactured using very heavy materials and expensive hardware to mitigate the failing doors, only to add more stress and strain on the existing structure. In this regard, the big door business is lucrative, due to the ongoing maintenance contracts associated with large door problems.

Insulated Doors

True space separation between two adjoining areas (i.e., interior and exterior) is a difficult expectation for any door. Even though a door might looks attractive from a distance, the truth of the matter is seen from the other side of the door. The built-in insulation inside the patented Sing door core not only provides effective climate control, but offers advanced sound deadening qualities. Sing door cores have been used inside soundproof doors and everything from bulletproof doors and fireproof doors.

Save Energy

Why waste energy by having a door that doesn’t seal properly as your exterior door? Everyone knows that a good door seal helps prevent energy loss saving on energy consumption. Having warp-free doors means your doors seal properly without leaking every time, regardless of the season, temperature or time of day. You can save energy – not only from the insulated that is packed inside for better temperature control – but also from having a secure door seal that does not fail due to warping, if your door has SingCore inside.

Sliding Door or Pivot Door

Reduced to its simplest form, these insulated warp-free doors could also be exterior sliding doors and/or exterior pivot doors with all the same great characteristics that come with having SingCore inside.

Click to see: Sliding Doors and/or Pivot Doors

Inside Or Outside

Only SingCore can accomplish all this – and more – providing you with the strongest, lightweight, insulated door core that can be guaranteed not to fail for a full 50 years , including warp-free and structure guarantee. No other door company can guarantee their doors, like that, unless they have SingCore inside.

If doors with SingCore inside can obtain such high performance standards as exterior doors, imagine having doors to match throughout your entire house, because our patented door core also makes the best interior doors for your home’s inside points of egress. If we can guarantee your exterior door for 50 years, we could guarantee your inside doors for 100 years.

Why not have the best?

Specify, “SingCore inside,” for all your doors.

How to Design Order and Build your Carriage Door

Patented Sing Panels are used in billionaire’s homes from coast-to-coast. You will find the most prestigious millworks in the United States using Sing products for their high-end clients. See our Clients List.

See: How to Build a Sing Carriage Door

Why do the best homes in the USA use Sing Doors?

Patented Sing Door is the only door blank manufacturer in the world that can deliver doors that are true flat and designed to stay flat for centuries regardless of size. Sing sliding doors are fully insulated, lightweight, high strength and so much more… Especially very large sliding doors that are problematic, unless made with Sing door planks.

Likewise, carriage doors are prone to failing due to a number of factors, as traditional carriage doors are not insulated, are likely to warp, bend or twist and are not strong enough to avoid light damage such as dings and dents. Sing carriage doors are the only true flat carriage door that could be built as air-tight insulated carriage doors to keep the temperature (hot or cold) controlled within.

Is there any difference in the Sing material used in million dollar homes and Sing carriage doors?

Not really. They all start with patented Sing Core as the basis of the design. Then the panels are finished by millworks or door manufacturers, and installed by qualified craftsmen. Whether your Sing carriage door is in a modest home or a billion dollar home, the function is the same; block the heat and cold, not bending, warping, twisting or cupping while maintaining unsurpassed structural integrity.

Why Use Patented Sing Panel Carriage Doors?

For the same reasons that millionaires and billionaires use Sing Panels in their homes as insulated maintenance-free sliding doors of any dimensions, especially large sliding doors that could weigh as much as a small car, but thanks to Sing Core, you can also have a stronger door while saving more than 80% of the weight of a traditional door.

How to Order Sing Carriage or Garage Doors

Sing carriage doors are sold by garage door companies who have expertise in working with wood carriage doors (most garage door companies sell steel or aluminum doors and do not handle wood or metal doors in the same manner as Sing Core).

We make it easy for your door professional to get the Sing Products that you need with our simple online ordering process.

Since most carriage doors are high quality with a high degree of craftsmanship, they can cost more than $4,000 each or in the case of double carriage doors more than $7,000 for a pair.

Carriage Doors

Why Don’t We Sell Carriage Doors Retail?

Sing Core is not equipped to deal with retail trade. Building a carriage door is not our area of expertise, though providing the best door substrate for building the world’s best carriage and garage doors is our specialty.

Every large city has highly trained door makers (such as pre-hung-doors, millworks and wood craftsmen) who turn Sing Panels into the most high-performance elegant insulated carriage doors and garage doors that are guaranteed to be true flat and stay flat.

We supply the appropriate Sing products to your door professional. All you have to do is to provide your door professional with your specifications, a photo and/or glass details and they can use Sing door core to build any style of door imaginable.

And according to your specifications your Sing carriage door can be made with any wood species available, as well as any other flat building material that you might like including (but not limited to) aluminum, brick, cement, ceramic, cold rolled steel, concrete, copper, fiberglass (FRP), galvanized steel, glass, LVL, metal, MDF, plastic, stainless steel, etc…

You door professional will be certain to match the appropriate carriage door hardware and finish the door to meet or exceed your specifications at an affordable price.

Also note that your door professional can also provide you with countertops, tables, partition walls, sliding doors, floors, cloud ceilings, etc… Once you experience the incredible advantages of Sing Core, you will want to have it everywhere in your home, too. See different applications.

New Door Technology

Applications -> Building Components -> Doors -> New Door Technology

There is a new concept in Eco-friendly door manufacturing that raises the question:

“Is Sing Door Core a better way to build doors than any other type of door?”

Sing Core’s patented door core has the unique ability to build a true-flat, weather proof/water tight, lightweight door that is stronger than steel and will remain flat for centuries, covered by our 50 year true flat guarantee (compare to other door companies’ warranties that do not cover when used in exterior applications). This new technology allows nearly limitless customizations allowing clients to design any door imaginable in any configuration, style, appearance and/or feature any flat surface material. Our French doors come complete with custom lite opening cutouts to your specifications in any size or shape. Glass doors can be combined with true raised panel doors for the most high precision patented Sing door core (within .006 inch tolerance) affordable American made doors.

Sing Core is a new advancement in door building technology that is bringing door-related jobs back to America.

New Sandwich Door vs. Stile & Rail and Wood Door

SING DOOR		STILE & RAIL and WOOD DOOR
Visually impressive		Visually impressive
True flat		Depends on wood and craftsmanship
Stays flat for centuries		Will warp, bend, twist over time
Weather resistant		Weather exposure will cause door to fail
One-piece construction		Many pieces, each piece is a weak spot
High strength		Moderate strength
Lightweight		Heavy
Insulated		No insulation
Highly customizable		Choose from variety of designs
Affordable		Handcrafted = expensive / import = cheap
Made in the USA		Yes / No

The idea of building doors with a “sandwich panel” is not new. A sandwich panel consists, basically, of a core material (like a paper honeycomb material found in most inexpensive lightweight doors, or particleboard found inside less expensive heavy doors, while high-end doors may use expensive LVL or solid wood stave core but cannot be guaranteed true flat) sandwiched (glued) between two exterior surface materials – or “skins” – to form a composite panel suitable for creating a door.

Don’t be fooled by door companies who advertise that their doors contain “honeycomb core,” because they may be using paper honeycomb core which has little core value. Make sure you inquire as to whether your door has patented Sing Core, aluminum core or plastic core. Know what your core value is before you buy your door.

Patented Sing Door Core presents an entirely new set of advantages over other types of core materials that result in insulated doors that last for centuries due to the strength and lightweightness of Sing Core. See table of core comparision.

This new door manufacturing technology makes it possible to create the most versatile doors with a nearly unlimited range of design capabilities without the need of framing or antiquated stile and rail door building methods.

Sing Core could be the least expensive high strength, true flat core material ever invented.

Stile and rail and wood doors are labor intensive causing many of the door companies in the United States to seek off-shore solutions and import doors to reduce the price to the end consumer.

The invention of Sing Core is bringing custom door manufacturing and the jobs associated with it back to the USA. This is due in part to providing American door manufacturers with a base material (Sing Door Core) that enables them to build an insulated, high quality, lightweight, high strength door in any style, without labor intense stile and rail door building methods.

Doors made with Sing Door Core can be made to any size, easily be modified to simulate stile and rail multi-panel design, quickly and easily be custom cut for any size or shape of lite openings for glass placement, and can feature any exterior surface material. See photos.

Doors made of Sing Core shine across the door industry as metal doors, cement board doors, FRP doors and STC sound rated* doors while appearing is door applications as flush doors, French doors, sliding doors, pivot doors, bi-fold doors, entrance doors, interior doors, carriage doors, garage doors and barn doors. Even now, we are working with bullet proof door industry.

All this at a fraction of what it would cost in labor costs to build a stile and rail door made in the USA.

LESS ENERGY – LIGHTWEIGHT – HIGH STRENGTH – SUSTAINABLE

Composite materials, like Sing Core, are leading the wave of new advancements in material science that are taking these new technologies into the future. These revolutionary technologies focus on reduction of energy consumption both during the creation process and in material handling. The newest advancements address common issues associated with weight and strength. Other major concerns are in sustainability. Sing Core excels in all of these, while being extremely affordable and proudly Made n the USA.

Patented Sing True Raised Panel Doors

High quality Sing Core Doors are affordable compared with other types of stile and rail doors, raised panel doors, French doors, carriage doors, sliding door, etc…

A raised panel door gives you that classic look of a 3-dimensional door that becomes a focal point and statement by the designer and/or homeowner.

Traditional raised panel doors have been made the same way for hundreds of years, in recent years technology has been introduced to simulate this style at an affordable price. Price being a concern has led to more off-shore imports flooding the builders’ supply markets.

Case Study: 125-year-old New York Church

In this 125-year-old church project, the Sing True Raised Panel Door was the perfect solution to address the challenges.

Problem: Exterior wood stile and rail doors fail, bend, warp, twist; requiring continued maintenance and repair.

Solution: Sing True Raised Panel Doors, guaranteed true flat – and stay flat – in exterior application, while matching original 125-year-old raised panel design.

Details: Sing Core expertise in matching client’s specifications and requirements based on patented technology that can deliver true flat, lightweight and high strength doors in any size, that can be guaranteed true flat per your specific performance standards. In this case 6 weatherproof Sing True Raised Panel doors were required to replace 6 125-year-old exterior wood doors in an effort to eliminate regular maintenance and repair challenges of previous wood stile and rail doors.

Specifics: To address the issue of weatherproof and flatness integrity for centuries, the Sing design team’s solution included Sing Panels made of Sing Core door core reinforced with aluminum and a marine grade plywood exterior skin. To match the appearance of original traditional raised panel doors, additional wood trim was added atop the panels to match the 125-year-old previous door design. A perfect match with superior performance eliminating constant maintenance.

: 50 year guaranteed solution

: True Raised Panel Doors

Note: The true flat weatherproof aluminum and marine plywood composite Sing Door is the solution for any exterior door of any size including large doors.

What is a Sing Raised Panel Door?

Sing Core introduces the True Raised Panel Door. The unique design of the Sing Core Raised Panel Door capture the original intent and look of a traditional raised panel door, but offers advantages that cannot be found otherwise.

Other raised panel doors offer little structural integrity. The structure can easily be compromised by little more than kicking the door causing it to break apart at the seams. In contrast, if you were to kick a Sing Core Raised Panel Door you would break your foot.

The secret is in the core of the Sing Core Raised Panel Door. The center of the door is solid as a rock, is resistant to warp, twist or rot and can be guaranteed true flat by build up the surface of Sing panel with molding and decorative raised panels instead the conventional raised panel doors are cave in at some area less than 1/2 inch thick, Sing and cost much less than a traditional raised panel door, which is not really a raised panel door at all in comparison to the Sing Core Raised Panel Door.

All doors start with the basic Sing Flush Door

The best solution according to the Sing Core culture and philosophy is the most affordable solution of using an authentic flush door, though many artists and designers use the Sing Core Flush Door as substrate and add moldings and decorations to meet varying aesthetic specifications.

Add molding for true raised panel features

Side by Side Comparison

On the left is the traditional 6 panel “raised panel door” and on the right is the Sing Raised Panel Door that is a true raised panel door, unlike the door to the left. Visually, they look identical, but that is an illusion.

The one on the left is made of 15 pieces of wood assembled together and where the routing is at its narrowest connection-points the door is extremely thin. While visually appealing with a classic look, the door on the left can easily be compromised by kicking the door at any given seam. On the other had an alternative approach is to carve the designs into a solid piece of wood (which is similarly weak at the deepest carve-points).

On the other hand, the Sing door blank is the base used as door substrate, now you can add molding and raised panels on top for the true raised panel door result. Warning: Kick the Sing Raised Panel Door and break your foot, not the door. (We accept no responsibility for injury.) If you can break a sing door, we’ll send you a new one for free.

Plus, the Sing Raised Panel Door gives you all the benefits that come with having an Eco-friendly technologically advanced door that simulates the classic style of the traditional raised panel door.

That’s why many designers who are restoring classic architecture are using Sing Core to replace outdated structural materials and doors. Working with Sing Core, artists and designers are able to duplicate the look and feel of classic materials without having to compromise by loss of energy or unreliableness of traditional building materials.

Then Add Custom Lite Openings for adding glass

Sing Core offers custom cut lite openings in any door to accommodate glass insertion specifications.

True Raised Panel Door

A new door fabrication technology is changing hundreds of year door making tradition. Now high quality precision (Sing Core tolerance within .0006 inch) doors can be proudly manufactured quickly and easily in the USA. Patented Sing Core can be used in many applications, to include building entire homes.

1. True flat and stay flat
For a very demanding high-end door requiring extremely true flat Sing Core will take your opening task and build your Sing Door according to your expectations. See: How to build a true flat door.

2. Lightweight
Sing Core weighs in at 4 to 5 lbs per cubic ft. vs. LVL or solid wood core which weight 35 lbs. to 45 lbs. per cubic ft. (Heavy doors are more difficult to manage, can be dangerous to install. Following installation, may put young fingers and limbs at risk.)

3. High strength
See the strength of Sing Core vs. other cores. Doors made of Sing Panels are one piece construction instead of conventional stile and rail doors joined together by wood dowels.

4. Insulated
Unlike wood or any other solid core door (with little or no insulation), Sing doors offer your choice of insulated materials to fill the torsion box voids to achieve your required specifications for R-value or sound-deadening.

5. All weather doors
Sing Core manufactures true flat weatherproof wood doors that stay flat with proper coating. Due to the unique qualities of patented Sing Door Core, the surface material remains straight and true, will not warp, bend or twist, which causes other doors to crack or water seeps in and the door fails. Also make excellent severe weather doors, like Hurricane Doors**.

These doors are 10 ft x 16 ft x 2 1/4″ thick w/marine-grade plywood exterior.

6. Any skin

How to Build a True Flat Long Lasting Carriage Door

How to Design Order and Build your Carriage Door

True flat technology is based on expertise in building carriage doors that can be guaranteed true flat and stay flat. This composite science includes the proper proportions of Sing Core, aluminum and/or other materials based on your requirements or specification. In this way each Sing carriage door is a work of art.

Wood-based carriage doors are exposed to a variety of weather conditions, glaring sun, wind and rain and it is important to keep the surface primed and coated to make sure that it does not crack while exposed to weather.

Sing carriage doors prolong functionality of surface treatments due to being made with patented Sing Core’s torsion box structure that holds the wood surface to maintain a forever flat surface without twisting or cracking.

You may further weather-protect – even for withstanding the most severe weather conditions – by integrating other material into the surface of your Sing carriage door. Surface skins of aluminum, FRP or stainless steel will not crack like natural wood or plywood to prevent compromise of your Sing carriage door.

If you like the look of solid wood but seek high-performance and longevity, you can use Sing aluminum as your true flat carriage door’s substrate, you will be able to maintain straightness of your doors making them less likely to crack due to movement cause by expansion and contraction of the wood surface material.

See how Sing Panel’s torsion box structure prevents surface crack because of the patented Sing Core’s unique characteristics.

To keep your carriage door true flat is a challenge for solid wood or even plywood.

Sing Core and Sing Panel master true flat technology for very high-end doors requiring less that 1/16 inch deflection which is more costly.

Sing carriage doors far exceed the AWI industry standard or ¼ inch deflection to be considered flat.
