Sing Punch-Proof Doors
SINGCORE-The new generation of door making it impossible to punch through and destroy.
As low as $50 a door for a door that will last a lifetime.
Today, the most common doors found in private residences contain a paper core. These doors are flimsy and are easily punctured, even when slightly impacted. Owners of these doors find themselves spending time and money on repairs, replacements, and installations that would not have been an issue had they purchased a door from Singcore. Singcore doors do not cost much more than paper-core doors, yet they have been tested to be at least 49 times stronger.
Door Security
How secure are your doors? With our patented core, you can rest assured that our torsion box technology will stand up to harsh treatment and all weather conditions. Our doors have been thoroughly tested and have been proven to withstand the impact of a sledgehammer. There is no comparison between the stability, structure, and strength of Sing Core doors versus paper-core doors.
This is a Sing Overhead Garage Door Panel compared next to a typical steel overhead garage door panel. Same size and thickness but as you can see the steel panel buckles with only a few pounds put on it while the Sing Panel holds almost all of Inventor Peter Sings weight without any problem.
Stronger than Steel,
Lighter than Wood
Doors do not have to be made out of steel to be rigid and strong. Sing Core doors are stronger and lighter, than steel and vinyl doors. Standard steel overhead garage doors are made of steel so thin that a golf ball can dent it. This is not the case with Sing Core doors. We offer higher quality doors at prices competitive with steel doors with quality superior to wooden doors.
Sing Core doors are more stable, provide better insulation, and are far lighter than solid wood doors. The torsion-box core holds the Sing Core door flat, ensuring that that the panel will not warp and sag like ordinary wood.
Patented Sing Door Methods
Sing Core doors are versatile and customizable. Every order is custom designed with the client’s project in mind. Each door is constructed using methods that specifically cater to our customers’ individual needs. We construct our doors using the following methods: pole barn grade, paint grade, wood grain grade, andplank grade.
How We Build Our Doors (The Best Method – Sing Torsion Box Panel Method)
The easiest way to build the best doors.
Step 1 – Apply Glue to the Skin
Step 2 – Build Solid Wood Frame
Step 3 – Install the patented Sing honeycomb torsion box core & press on the skins.
Step 4 (optional) – Cut hole for window and prepare window trim.
Step 5 (optional) – Install glass and finish the door to desired look and function.
Step 6 – Install the door onto jam.
Method 2 – How We Build Our Doors (The Second Best Method – Stile Rail)
On the left are patented Sing honeycomb stile and rail. On the right is veneer (walnut) ready for gluing onto the patented Sing honeycomb stile and rail.
Apply glue to our patented Sing honeycomb stile and rail.
Press veneer to patented Sing honeycomb stile and rail. Most honeycomb panels cannot handle the high pressure and temperatures of the hot press, Sing honeycomb can.
Stile and Rail after the veneer has been pressed on.
See how straight the patented Sing honeycomb stile and rail are, yet they are still incredibly strong and lightweight.

Standard sandwich panels utilize an insulating foam core sandwiched in between two thin sheets of hard material. However, this design offers very little strength and durability. Sandwich panels made by Sing Core are stronger, lighter, and more eco-friendly than these conventional panels because we replace the standard foam core with our patented vertical grain, natural veneer torsion box grid also known as the Sing Core. For the consumer, this translates into a higher quality product at a fraction of the cost.
Insulated doors made with traditional sandwich panels are highly susceptible to dents and structural damage because of their weak foam core. Doors made with our Sing Core sandwich panel technology can withstand much higher impacts resulting in little or no damage due to our unique core properties. The University of Washington has confirmed that our doors can withstand pressure of up to 660 psi, as compared to the average sandwich panel which can only withstand 60-100 psi.
If you desire products that are lightweight, strong, durable, dimensionally stable, and eco-friendly, then you must try our Sing Core Sandwich Panels. We like to demonstrate our confidence in the integrity of our products by offering our customers a 10 year structural guarantee.
The simplest and least expensive way to join sing panels is to join in any way according to your budget and/or expertise.
Due to Sing Panels being so straight and true it is easier to join panels together because they line up perfectly unlike other building materials.
In many cases, for instance, standard 4×8 panels can be nailed, glued or channel-joined quickly and easily with satisfactory results.
Other options for fastening panels may include cam locks (see examples left and right) that can be pre-installed, making assembly and joining easy and more secure.
The Sing cam-lock panel solution is a high-demand solution for panels that are routinely assembled and disassembled, especially in moveable walls, trade show booths, and various wall cladding applications. See: Cam Lock Panels

Thru-bolt Joining
One of the most inexpensive and secure ways to join sing panels is by utilizing a simple nut and bolt connection method, especially, if the panels will be routinely or repeatedly assembled and disassembled.
Stainless steel nuts and bolts offer the safety and security when joining sing panels.
Biscuit Joining
In many cases, Sing Panels can be pre-configured for biscuit joining at your site of factory.
Especially for large projects, this enables Sing Core panels to be sent individually, reducing shipping and handling costs, for assembly at your facility or job site.
See images below for example of biscuit assembly of Sing Panels
Unless specified Sing Panels do not ship edge-banded as 93% of our wholesale customers do their own edge-banding when finishing their Sing Panel.
Edge banding can take many forms from vinyl and plastic to wood and steel. Sing Panels are not intended for use as an un-banded product and may not qualify for our 50 year warranty if un-banded.
If your intention is to get the best, most long-lasting performance from your Sing Panels, feel free to take advantage of our free consultation to be guaranteed to achieve the results that you desire.

Advanced Large Panels
Sing Core specializes in extremely large panels (up to 50 feet) that are extremely true flat and use our nearly seamless assembly process.
This is the most high-end and expensive process where we perform the highly specialized meticulous work in our factory yielding the high level of perfection that many of our most discerning clients require. See: our clients.
These must be manufactured in our plant to ensure accuracy with tolerances within thousandths of an inch and are more costly to ship due to the nature of their being larger than multiple panels that can be assembled on-site.
Connectors for Connecting
Cam-Locks
One of our many features is the ability to add fasteners/locks to our panels…one example of this is the “S-Hook Lock” with a turn of the hex wrench you can fasten or unfasten your panels quickly.
The “S-Hook” fastening lock that is attached to the side of these panels to allow for easy assembly of the wall system.
With a quick turn of your wrist on the hex key your panels will be attached to each other.
Barn Door Assembly or ‘H’ Channel
If you are planning to keep your panels as a permanent structure you may choose the H-Channel attachment feature. Apply your adhesive the slide panel into the channel on each side then either veneer over the panel and channel or you may choose to putty, sand and paint your panels to cover over the H-channel.
Tongue and Groove
Tongue and groove is another fastening choice especially if you using our panels for flooring or ceiling. Make a nice almost seamless connection but give wood veneer a hardwood flooring appearance.
Biscuit Joint
This is a modified biscuit joint attachment. Similar to the H-joint the you are using a single long “beam” as the connector and gluing them together. Best use is for oversize tables (such as vacuum tables) and oversize doors as well. Because our panels are made of honeycomb rather than solid wood, they will not warp. Our honeycomb is light and strong.
Ship Lap
The ever popular ship lap as a connector alternative.
With the wide variety of applications for Sing Core panels, posts and beams, and equally diverse selection of fasteners are used in practical installations.Here are some of the most popular fastening systems used today:Norse Inc.

This is a Sing Overhead Garage Door Panel compared next to a typical steel overhead garage door panel. Same size and thickness but as you can see the steel panel buckles with only a few pounds put on it while the Sing Panel holds almost all of Inventor Peter Sings weight without any problem.
Stronger than Steel,
Lighter than Wood
Doors do not have to be made out of steel to be rigid and strong. Sing Core doors are stronger and lighter, than steel and vinyl doors. Standard steel overhead garage doors are made of steel so thin that a golf ball can dent it. This is not the case with Sing Core doors. We offer higher quality doors at prices competitive with steel doors with quality superior to wooden doors.
Sing Core doors are more stable, provide better insulation, and are far lighter than solid wood doors. The torsion-box core holds the Sing Core door flat, ensuring that that the panel will not warp and sag like ordinary wood.
Patented Sing Door Methods
Sing Core doors are versatile and customizable. Every order is custom designed with the client’s project in mind. Each door is constructed using methods that specifically cater to our customers’ individual needs. We construct our doors using the following methods: pole barn grade, paint grade, wood grain grade, andplank grade.
How We Build Our Doors (The Best Method – Sing Torsion Box Panel Method)
The easiest way to build the best doors.
Step 1 – Apply Glue to the Skin
Step 2 – Build Solid Wood Frame
Step 3 – Install the patented Sing honeycomb torsion box core & press on the skins.
Step 4 (optional) – Cut hole for window and prepare window trim.
Step 5 (optional) – Install glass and finish the door to desired look and function.
Step 6 – Install the door onto jam.
Method 2 – How We Build Our Doors (The Second Best Method – Stile Rail)
On the left are patented Sing honeycomb stile and rail. On the right is veneer (walnut) ready for gluing onto the patented Sing honeycomb stile and rail.
Apply glue to our patented Sing honeycomb stile and rail.
Press veneer to patented Sing honeycomb stile and rail. Most honeycomb panels cannot handle the high pressure and temperatures of the hot press, Sing honeycomb can.
Stile and Rail after the veneer has been pressed on.
See how straight the patented Sing honeycomb stile and rail are, yet they are still incredibly strong and lightweight.
