Vibration Proof Doors and Panels

Sing Core has developed a new hermetically sealed shock absorbent panel which has lightweight insulated Sing hybrid core which is long known to be stronger than steel pound for pound (660+ PSI) is in the center of the door or panel.

The new Sing vibration proof door cores and panels are designed for sound absorption as well as absorbing other types of vibration and providing floating separation between composite and neighboring components.

Thereby, preventing transmission of gasses, sound, and thermal influence between surfaces, while hermetically sealing the contents for the perfect low volatile organic compounds (VOC) door or panel solution for use in museums, scientific laboratories, and highly controlled areas.

Wide variety of applications include everything from refrigeration and climate control to equipment enclosures and high-security impact resistance, and sound proofing.

This new vibration proof technology assists industry-wide dampening of a variety of vibrations in the transportation industries including automotive, truck, rail, marine, and aerospace division where minimizing vibration transfer can yield huge benefits.

For years Sing Core has been used inside boat hulls, bulkheads, decks, roofs, floors, and doors in all manner of high-end boats and yachts.

Effective in the maximization of vibration control for machinery industrial applications abound as well as throughout the home, business, and locations which house equipment which is responsible for sound transfer, including HVAC ducting and metal plenums.

Sound isolation has never been so lightweight and high strength. Until the invention of Sing Core, preventing sound transmission required mass and heavy materials which could compromise the entire project, especially in areas where weight could have a significant impact on a structure. This is far more potentially troublesome for seagoing vessels or aircraft, where Sing Core’s solution fits like a glove because lighter is better, especially if you can achieve structural integrity.

In the theater, on stage, or cinema playhouses, Sing sound absorption and vibration control doors and panels are versatile and can be custom designed and built for you custom wall, floor and ceiling assemblies, such as those used among high tech industrial venues, government, and military installations.

Decreasing sound and vibrational transmission of anything from multistory footfall to heavy equipment floors.

Vertical applications such as firewalls, doors, cabinets, and more.

Increasing separation between adjoining spaces such as temporary walls, acoustic room dividers, stages and portable floors in residential and commercial buildings.

Sound isolating doors and panels can offer huge advantages to preserving the audio spectrum in recording studios, amidst high volume sound equipment, musical instruments, and speakers at various locations, while providing sound blocking capabilities from outside environmental audible interruptions.

Amidst the scientific community, controlling sound and other vibrations near sensitive scientific devices can be critical in the monitoring and measurement of the infinitesimally small.

If you are challenged with the securing of vibrational or sound influences from beyond your individual space from mechanical noise and vibration through existing structures like walls, floors and ceilings, then Sing Core may be just what the doctor ordered.

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?”

New-French-Door-With-Glass-Lite-Cut-outsSing 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

sing-core-french-door-10-lightThe 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

Church-Doors-Goshen-United-Methodist-Church-New-YorkIn 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.

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

wood-flush-door-lightweight-strength

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

6-panel-door-them6-Panel-Single-Door-UsSide 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.

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.

lightweight-high-strength-doors-make-for-safe-fingers-and-toes-for-kids2. 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.

Sound Proof Doors

All Sing Core Doors are pre-insulated with sound dampening features that are enjoyed by all suppliers and end-users. This high-level of performance has increased the demand for a solution for our discriminating high-end clients to raise the bar once again in our Sing Sound Solutions.

Sound-dampening-Sing-Sound-Proof-Doors-for-recording-studios-tv-radio-stations-sound-proof-boothsYou will find Sing Sound Doors in use in service in professional or home recording studios, voice over booths, film and television studios, broadcasting studios, instrument rehearsal booths, audiology booths, trade shows portable meeting rooms, telemarketing stations, houses of worship, government facilities and scientific testing labs.

The first generation of Sing Sound Proof Doors used lead, which is extremely heavy, and the patented Sing Core torsion-box/foam core helped address the problems associated with the weight issue, and also the softness of lead.

Without the Sing Core base material, it would be impossible to produce a true flat lead door.

In 2014, Sing Core introduces the Sing Sound Proof Door that does not have any lead content whatsoever. We have embraced new sound proof technology that meets the needs of our most particular high-end clients in the entertainment and scientific communities.

According to our clients, standard Sing Core doors are equivalent to roughly STC 30* depending on the core materials selected by the client. One recording studio engineer says, “We can build a sound-proof room, no problem. But the door… That is the weakest link. Thanks to the Sing Sound Door we have solved that problem, and are seriously considering Sing Core for use throughout the entire new studio build that we are considering at another location.”

This new generation of lead-free Sing Core Sound Proof Doors that we have made for some of our most critical clients reached higher testing ranges up to STC-56. We can help you achieve the results that you desire according to your specifications and requirements.

That said, Sing Core might be the secret ingredient of your most demanding project…

Sing Core Will Team Up With You

We work with sound engineers all the time, but we are looking to partner with someone to help us develop our sound proof line. If you have a large quantity/quality sound proof project including walls, doors, ceilings, floors, we would like to team up with you to get the job done. We have access to local sound testing facilities to achieve the higher STC rating that you desire and will share the STC rating costs with you (or totally absorb the cost if the job is big enough). Contact us for more information.

Increasingly, private and commercial accounts are seeking out Sing Core for all their sound proof needs, like sound booths and do-it-yourself sound-proofing.

4. Sing Sound in the Studio

Reducing-ambient-sound-deadening-sound-proof-recording-studioWorking with recording studios, Sing Core helps the upscale sound studio solve the acoustic challenges facing the uncompromising recording engineer with the sound isolation of the studio mic from the rest of the recording equipment.

Originally Sing Core was sought out when trying to resolve issues when faced with trying to find the answer to how to soundproof a door. It wasn’t long and the door was expanded to other applications by some of the brightest engineers and designers, because if you remove the door frame, you have a wall, lay it flat and it is a floor or ceiling.

Little is more important to the music producer than the vocal booth when recording the vocal tracks in recording studios NYC who work with the top record companies.

When working with recording studios in Chicago, Sing Core consistently solves the variety of challenges that arise from dealing with a wide variety of talent with completely customizable audio recording setups. In this specialized arena, it is more important to use the Sing acoustic sound walls as moveable and reconfigurable components for portable sound booths.

You will also find the Sing Sound solution in theater architecture, acoustical wall treatments, cinema acoustics and media rooms.

7. Do-it-Yourself Sound Proofing Doesn’t Have to be Expensive

We help people create their own sound proof environment, quickly, easily and quietly, without breaking the bank. These folks simply use our Sing Panels as their base structure, then soundproof to their heart’s content. This is an effective approach to both permanent and temporary installations.

8. Temporary Trade Show Sing Sound Applications

trade-show-booth-in-action-lightweight-high-strength-economicalAmong the various business segments we (Sing Panels) are often invited to join our business clients as they fabricate their own trade show booths on-the-fly. Rather than relying on us (or third-party designers) they simply obtain Sing Panels as their raw materials, then build and decorate to their heart’s content.

At a trade show you want to look your best and sometimes it is important to have a professionally isolated area where you can interact with your clients without the distraction of the ongoing tradeshow noise and distractions.

You could spend top-dollar for your Sing Trade Show Booth, or simply do it yourself. All you need to do is to order the number of Sing Panels that you need to create your booth, i.e., a 12 x 8 trade show booth can be easily constructed our of seven Sing Panels (three for the back and two for each side). Your trade show booth can be assembled quickly, easily and quietly with an electric screwdriver, and can be assembled in minutes singlehandedly.

Occasionally, at an increasing rate of late, our tradeshow people have been using Sing Panels as their structure material for building on site sound proof rooms that are built rapidly at low cost.

9. Disposable Sound Proof Rooms

Here are the DIY methods that we’ve seen some of our clients build the sound proof disposable conference rooms, or presentation theaters:

Quickly assemble a number of 4 ft. x 8 ft. x 2 in. (with ¼ in. luan facing) Sing Panels into the desired room configuration.

You will need a door for access. There are 3 ways to do this:

  1. Order 1 Sing Panels with a door (could be a Sing Sound Proof Door) built-in
  2. Cut a Sing Panel and insert your own door on site
  3. Hinge an entire Sing Panel as an access point

backside-of-sandwich-panel-trade-show-booth-lightweight-high-strength-true-flatUsing this method you will be able to assemble your private area within minutes.

To increase sound crossover and privacy, add panels as floor and ceiling then consider how to sound proof a room:

10. The Inexpensive, Quick and Easy Way to Sound Proof Your Area

To sound proof your area, you could get Sing Sound Panels which are normally more expensive and used in permanent installations, or you could use the methods used by many of our tradeshow attendees and save thousands and thousands of dollars:

Once you have your basic Sing Panel structure assembled (including floor and ceiling) add as many layers of sheetrock to the exterior (and interior, if desired) as needed to obtain the level of sound-proofing desired.

Just have a local lumberyard deliver the inexpensive sheetrock that you need, affixing them to your existing Sing Core structure.

“How many layers of sheetrock can the Sing Panels hold?”

Remember, Sing Panels are not only lightweight and sound-dampening but they are also strong. Even without a frame (you don’t really need one because of the built-in torsion box frame) Sing Panels are many times stronger than a rinky-dink 2×4 frame and in fact are stronger than steel (see comparison). So, if you wanted to add a layer of lead for increased sound deadening, your Sing Panel frame can easily handle the extra weight.

An impressive way to increase the sound-deadening qualities of your structure is to alternate layers of sheetrock with sing panels. For example, the basic structure might be your Sing Panel core with sheet rock on both the inside and outside. On the outside add another later of Sing Panel and another layer of sheetrock to achieve the desired result.

You can also add acoustic textile, perforated acoustical soundboard or sound proof foam material to either the exterior or interior of your structure, or both.

11. Demolition of your Disposable Theater and/or Conference Room

Disassembly of your Sing Core theater or conference room is as easy as reversing the direction on your screwdriver.

Many of our economy sound-proof trade show people simply disassemble their areas, leaving the sheetrock behind for the convention center to dispose of (sometimes they even leave the Sing Panels behind, too, but most of them take the panels with them, if they can).

12. Perfect for the Do-It-Yourselfer

Think of the time and money you can save by using Sing Panels as your core structure material then have no fear in adding as much material as you want to bring your acoustic dream to life. Sing Core is strong enough to bear the weight of the heaviest sound-proofing materials, without fail. Don’t be framed, or shy, when using Sing Core.

Sound Dampening Options

We work hand-in-hand with architects, designers, sound engineers and professionals to give you the results that you desire using the products and specifications to decimate the challenges of sound absorption or sound proofing that you require.

Sing Core is not a sound proofing company, we are a specialty panel company that builds the best Eco-friendly lightweight, high-strength acoustic panels customized per your specifications for the sound proofing industry.

Note that Sing Core does not engineer STC rated doors, we only build to your architectural or engineered door specs. Be certain to detail how you want your sound door’s specifics.  Sing Core can have sound doors tested and rated locally at the customer’s request and expense.

Sing Core internal options

Standard foam is EPS, common upgrade is urethane foam to increase sound deadening. Additional options include using rigid acoustic fiberglass (Armacell, ATSA, etc…) as foam replacement in the torsion box core.

Sing Panel Acoustic Skin Options

You may specify any acoustical exterior surface material that will fit the requirements of your project. Some exterior material options that we have used include: Magboard, Owens Corning 703, Knauf ECOSE® Insulation Board, Roxul Rockboard, concrete and even lead.

Additional Outer Layer Surface

Sing Acoustic Panels can be covered in a variety of additional sound absorbing acoustic materials including burlap, Guilford® of Maine acoustic fabric or any other additional outer layer surface material that is desired or requested.
