Why Install Garage Door Insulation?

Make Your Garage a Comfortable Space

If you’re planning to use your garage as a home gym, rehearsal space, or home office, then having an insulated door for your garage is essential. Extreme heat or cold can make a garage space unbearable, particularly if temperatures reach 40+ degrees. To help you create and maintain a comfortable working or recreational environment in your garage, you should insulate your garage door.

Improve Energy Efficiency

Insulating your garage door helps regulate the temperature inside and prevents heat transfer, keeping your garage warmer in winter and cooler in summer. This not only reduces the need for heating and cooling systems, enhancing your home's overall energy efficiency and lowering your energy bills.

Protect Valuable Items

Many garages are used to store valuables — from sports gear to automotive tools and craft supplies. Garage insulation will create a more stable environment, helping to minimise temperature-related wear and tear on stored items and extending their lifespan.

Types of Garage Door Insulation Materials

Flexible Insulation for Sectional Doors

Foilboard insulation and Air-Cell insulation are excellent for insulating sectional garage doors. They are lightweight, easy to install and provide both thermal and acoustic benefits. This type of insulation is extremely versatile and would also be a suitable choice for retrofitting insulation on garage doors.

Rigid Foilboard for Maximum Performance

For the highest thermal performance and comfort year-round, rigid foilboard is the superior choice for garage door insulation. Ideal for rigid, sectional doors, it provides high thermal resistance and is easy to cut to size and install. Foilboard is particularly recommended for areas where temperature extremes are common.

Complete Garage Insulation

For a fully climate-controlled garage that can serve as an extension of your living space, fit your entire garage with insulation. If you have plans to use your garage as a home office, workshop, home gym, or rehearsal space, you can perfect the ultimate garage transformation by insulating not only the doors but ceilings and walls. This will give you a protected space that’s fit for a range of garage-based activities.
