The Best Metal Doors

Metal doors offer many advantages over other types of doors and are commonly featured as metal security doors, in commercial, industrial, institutional, and health care fields. You want the best metal doors because all kinds of metal doors can present problems throughout the manufacturing, installation, and maintenance of a metal door’s life.

Of all the metal doors available in the marketplace today, steel doors are the most common, followed by stainless steel doors, aluminum doors, brass doors, bronze doors, cold rolled steel doors, hot rolled steel doors, Galvannealed steel doors, and galvanized steel doors.

Steel Doors

Steel doors steal the show when it comes to metal doors. Steel front doors are by far the most popular of all steel door applications. Heavy duty steel security doors are sought out for the obvious reasons to enhance safety and security for important personnel or high-risk environments.

 

 

Commercial Steel Doors

The most prevalent commercial metal doors are custom steel doors created to serve as a metal door in a clean room, protection from extreme weather conditions, coolers and freezers. Or to fill large openings in loading docks, warehouses, parking garages, nautical and aircraft hangers.

Because metal doors are so heavy, leading to increased care and maintenance, hollow metal doors are becoming more commonplace as they are less expensive and are virtually dispensable. Rather than fixing or repairing hollow metal door, they are easy enough to simply discard and replace them with another inexpensive hollow steel door.

Government installations use metal steel doors, but its not enough to just have a door made of metal, they have greater expectations in terms of high-precision and high-performance. The most distinguishing users of metal doors are seeking out manufacturers of steel doors which can deliver better precision and performance. Architects, designers, engineers, and custom metal door manufacturers are on the lookout for the best steel doors.

Sliding Door

Nestled into the woods of the Pacific Northwest, patented Sing Core is making an impact in the sliding door industry, growing and expanding day by day. In the sliding door industry which is dominated by the top 10 door companies in the world, the biggest door companies, like Anderson Windows & Doors, Jeld-Wen, Pella, as well as the most prestigious millworks, all come to Sing Core when they face a challenging sliding door problem.

The large oversized sliding door seems to present the largest number of problems associated with the sliding door.

First of all, there is the size of the sliding door which can be a challenge for anyone to transport and handle, then there is the weight which will require heavy equipment and experienced professionals to operate the equipment for maneuvering the sliding doors as well as installation.

Beyond the size, the weight of the sliding door is vastly important because a heavier door will require heavy duty hardware to operate the door effectively. Also, a sliding door which is heavy in weight will add stress and strain both on the hardware and the structure causing costly repairs later along the service life of the sliding door.

2. Lightweight Sliding Door

No more need to settle for heavy sliding doors which are more expensive to ship, handle, and maintain over time. Your lightweight sliding door weighs in at one-third (or less) the weight of your normal door which means less expense (and risk) for maneuvering and installing your sliding door as well as less wear and tear on both the hardware and the structure which hosts your lightweight sliding door.

3. High Strength Sliding Door

Now you can have the strongest Eco-friendly, lightweight door in the world, bar none. SingCore’s reinforced torsion box technology allows sliding door makers to create sliding doors, even if incredibly oversized and very large, like aircraft hangar doors, which are massively strong, UW tested at more than 660 PSI, which is stronger than steel pound-for-pound.

4. Fully Insulated Sliding Door

When you want to keep warm inside when it’s cold outside or visa versa, a sliding door with Sing Core inside will keep you warmer or cooler when experiencing the most severe weather conditions.

5. Warp-free Sliding Door

One problem with sliding doors is that they are prone to warp over time. This problem is exasperated if you have a bypass sliding door or a sliding pocket door do to being articulated alongside other sliding door materials.

Sliding Glass Doors

When you’re not just looking for any sliding glass doors, there’s a good chance you’re looking high and low for the best sliding glass door to suit your needs, your particular taste(s) as well as beautiful sliding French and patio doors. Normal, off the shelf glass sliding doors are not going to suit what you want in a sliding glass door. Chances are you’re looking for the best sliding glass doors, doors that are not your run of the mill sliding French or patio doors, but unique one of a kind sliding glass patio doors.

About Sliding Glass Doors

Standard sliding glass doors come in vinyl, fiberglass, rolled or extruded aluminum, and in the more expensive projects featuring natural wood to show case and frame the metal. Enter the new generation of large sliding glass doors specified and insisted upon by the most high-end door companies, architects, designers, engineers, and custom sliding glass manufacturers in the world.

The most popular sliding glass doors are inexpensive, made of vinyl, fiberglass, rolled or extruded aluminum. You are not likely to find these materials in the higher caliber jobs in the most elegant locations around the world. In these most exclusive projects, you’re more likely to find natural wood grains or hot rolled steel featured.

Now, you can have nearly any material featured in your sliding glass doors, with Sing Core inside to make the best sliding glass doors in the world. This new way of building impeccable sliding glass doors is thanks to Peter Sing’s patented and patent-pending sliding glass door frame material which enables the creation of Eco-friendly high-end sliding glass doors of any size to be built and be fully sustainable.

All backed by Sing’s unparalleled

50-Year Warp-free and Structure Guarantee

There exists no other way to build a lightweight impervious sliding glass door to come with such a guarantee without Sing Core inside.

 

 

If you really want the best sliding doors, you will need to enlist the skills and artistry of a local millwork or custom sliding door manufacturer.

Sliding Glass Doors

Sliding glass doors are the most prevalent and sought after styles of patio doors, which can and often do include several sliding glass doors in succession including overlapping sliding glass doors which are also called bypass sliding doors because one door slides over another door panel, which may or may not be a sliding patio door. Depending on the design, one or more glass doors may be stationary.

The best sliding glass doors featured in high end homes are made with wooden sliding doors that feature large glass window lite cutouts. It stands to reason, if you’re going to have a nice patio, you’re going to want to enjoy it both from the inside and the outside of your home. So, unless you’re primary concern is high security level patio doors which can be made of Kevlar and featuring Lexan clear polycarbonate, you’re going to want sliding patio doors with a view (glass installed).

Sliding Glass French Patio Doors

Those sliding patio doors with the big glass cutouts? We call these sliding glass doors, “French patio doors.” By definition a French door is a usually a wood door featuring a large window glass pane. Sliding glass French doors allow you to enjoy the beauty of the outdoors regardless of the time of year. French doors are Eco-friendly in that they maximize the availability of the natural lighting.

For The top of the line, highest end sliding glass doors, look no further.  We can make panels that will shock and awe even the competition.

 

 

 

If your French patio doors have Sing Core inside, they are lighter in weight and also insulated for climate control and also sound deadening qualities, maximizing your investment for the most Eco-friendly French patio doors.

While the sliding French patio door is intended to provide access to and from the patio area, they are also elementally and visually impressive enhancing the overall appearance of any patio access area. Sliding French patio doors are by far the most elegant patio doors, and backed with Sing Core’s 50 year warp-free and structure guarantee, are by far the most sustainable patio doors.

Wooden Sliding Glass Doors

Since wooden sliding glass doors are the preferential choice of designers, architects and owners of the most expensive homes ($20 Million & up) chances are these are going to be wooden sliding doors which are featuring large lite cut outs and are likely to be very tall, which could be 16 ft. tall wooden sliding glass doors, or taller sliding glass French patio doors. Wooden sliding doors (especially if they are large wooden sliding doors) present a number of challenges for the architects, designers and millworks or custom door manufacturers who build them. The number one problem with any long span of wood is that it will warp. It’s not a matter of if the large wooden sliding door will warp, but when it will warp.

That’s why it’s so important to have Sing Core inside your large wooden sliding doors, because a warped wooden sliding door which does not open of close is not a door at all. Although, if your door has a large window glass pane lite cutout, you will still have the view, even if the door fails, your wood French patio door can be a French patio window.

The wisest most efficient designers and architects increasingly are specifying that all their large wooden sliding doors with glass and wooden French patio doors have “Sing Core inside.”

Sliding Glass Door Design

The design of glass sliding doors, and sliding French doors in particular, can be complex and may require a true team approach to the glass sliding door design. The architect can specify the glass sliding doors, and the designer (who may also be the architect or the owner) knows what they want. The concerted efforts of the custom glass patio door builder or manufacturer, the millworks, (as well as Sing Core, if specified) and the install team, must work in tandem to solve all the pending challenges that may arise from the glass sliding door design.

Extra care must be taken in the selection of the glass sliding patio door hardware, ensuring that it is rated for exterior use, and also matched to the weight of the sliding patio glass door as it was designed. The weight of the sliding glass patio doors dictates the types and styles of sliding patio door hardware which will be necessary for improving performance and reducing maintenance over time.

For patio doors that have solid warp-free Sing Core composite core inside, these patio doors will be lighter in weight than other solid core doors, reducing the cost of what otherwise might require heavy duty sliding door hardware, which can cost many times the cost of the sliding doors themselves.

Modern Patio Doors

In this day and age, modern glass sliding doors need not adhere to the same design characteristics as their sliding patio door forerunners. In the most contemporary architectural designs custom lite openings can be designed which contrast wildly in comparison to earlier traditional designs.

 

 

It is common for Sing Core to pre-cut custom lite openings in modern sliding patio doors based on the visionary drawings of the contemporary architect, designer or owner.

By altering and creatively designing the glass openings in an otherwise sliding French door configuration, a unique glass design and install can increase the effective curb appeal and radically enhance the perceived value of a home, when the owner desires to be uniquely separated from the pack.

Plus, high end modern sliding patio doors need not be limited to being manufactured of wood. You might see these highly individualized, one-of-a-kind patio doors made of hot rolled steel, copper, or concrete, because custom patio doors with Sing Core inside could be made of any available flat building material.

Pivoting Pocket Door

Among the pivot door industry, the millworks, custom pivot door builders, and every major pivot door company, the new buzz words in the world of pivot doors includes the request for high end pivot door to have, “Sing Core inside.”

You might wonder why the trend of contemporary architects and designer are specifying their pivot doors, especially if they are large pivot doors, have, “Sing Core inside?”

The reasons include the attributes of patented Sing Core that are transferred to the pivot door making the lightest weight pivot door (a fraction of other solid pivot door cores, that are also the strongest (independently University tested at 660+ PSI) insulated pivot doors every built.

Thanks to inventor Peter Sing’s patented pivot door core material, any pivot door company can build a large pivot door that can be guaranteed to remain warp-free for 50 years. Pivot doors with patented Sing Core inside are the only pivot doors that can be covered by Sing’s 50-year warp-free guarantee.

Unique pivot doors of all kinds can be built with this revolutionary new pivot door core material, including but not limited to the following pivot doors:

Pivoting Pocket Door

A modern pivoting pocket door presents certain challenges for architects and designers, such as being heavy in weight if it is a large pivot door which swivels and retracts or is stored in a pocket door cavity within a wall. The pivoting pocket door is basically a pivot sliding door which pivots and slides into the concealed pocket. If slide and pivot doors have the slightest warp, bend, or twist they can become inoperable or might be lodged inside the pivoting pocket door’s recess.

Having Sing Core inside ensures the pivoting pocket door will remain faithfully straight and true for the life of the door or 50 years, even though it was constructed to last for hundreds of years.

Pivot Front Door

A pivot front door is also an architectural challenge if it is large, and all the best pivot doors are large pivot doors because the larger they are, the more likely a pivot door is going to fail due to warping. If one side of your pivot entry door faces the structure’s interior space and the other side faces the exterior, exposed to the weather 100%, you’re going to experience a warped door.

 

Exterior pivot doors do present a problem for the end user and an opportunity for ongoing pivot door companies who specialize in long term maintenance and repair over the life of the door. A well-hung pivot door with Sing Core inside will outperform any other commercial door, hands down. Even if it is among the family of,

Wooden Pivot Doors

Wooden pivot doors present the most problems with warping due to the nature of the wood to move according to the varying climate conditions or change of seasons. Seasonal warp is expected for wooden pivot doors of all kinds, whether they are exterior pivot doors or internal pivot doors.

Patented Sing Core is the only way to build a wooden pivot door that doesn’t warp with all the elegance and charm of solid timber pivot doors but at a fraction of the weight saving you money in pivot door hardware and maintenance over time.

2. Wood Grain and Wood Stave Door

3. Hardwood Plywood Door

1 Paint Grade Door

Our most popular door blanks are paint grade, and can be made to your specs including surface materials of,

  • Birch ply (most common)
  • Wood plywood
  • MDO
  • HPL
  • Other material, as specified

 

2 Wood Grain and Wood Stave Door

Besides paint grade for the surface, we also provide solid wood stave laminate on both sides of the sliding door. Wood stave is easy to work with and will last. Your Sing wood stave door will be more high precision than solid wood door (less warping, and twist and crack) due to Sing Core’s extremely high tolerance (+/- .006 inch) and, rigidity and high strength (660+ PSI) and professional grade wood grain and wood stave doors are certified and guaranteed not to warp, bend, twist, or otherwise fail for 50 years.

Sing Core provides hot-press ready door blanks to door manufacturers who add wood veneer on both sides of Sing door blanks which are made of Luan skin or marine grade plywood sandwich with patented Sing Core in the middle, solid wood around 4 edges and wood block implants where needed for hardware.

Note: Veneer has to be handled very carefully every step of the way during production (we prefer to let the millworks handle this delicate procedure) and it is easy to damage by users over the years (but wood stave can be easily sanded and repaired).

We offer a very good price for wood stave doors, the cost is not much more than wood veneer doors.

3 Hardwood Plywood Door

We could make door with hardwood plywood as an effective way to make super large doors that you can stain any color. Up to 4×8 doors have no seam, but by orienting the grain horizontally, you can achieve a nearly seamless presentation on really big doors or extraordinary size.

Available in any available wood species, most common are Sapele, Oak, and Maple ply.

Sing Hardwood ply door has excellent strength, yet is lightweight, features good insulation and better sound deadening qualities than solid wood plank doors.
