And, going to suddenly make the garage a lot warmer. While I do have insulated doors, and I would replace them with insulated doors, I also have insulated walls and the garage has heated areas on two sides and above. It does not stay warm, but it is a little warmer than it would be otherwise. But just doors will not do much. If the garage is not attached to a heated area or does not have some form of heat itself, insulating the doors is going to do very very little. -- Dia duit You must Sign in before you can post messages.
