Insulation Tailored to Your Needs
To choose the right level of insulation for your next garage door, it’s important to consider your garage’s location relative to your home and how you use it. For example, if your garage is attached to your house or if you plan to use it as a recreational space for family members or as a workshop or hobby area, we strongly recommend choosing the most insulated garage door available in the Garaga product line. It’s also worth noting that polyurethane foam plays an important role in the door’s construction. Because the polyurethane adheres to the door’s panels, it provides excellent resistance to bending, ensuring great rigidity for the door panels.
Garaga offers four levels of insulation in its range of residential doors. Here are their features:
- R-16: This insulation level is the highest performing in Garaga’s residential doors. With such a thermal resistance factor, this option is ideal for garages attached to your home, especially if there is a room above the garage (such as a bedroom). Doors with an R-16 insulation factor help keep your garage warm in winter and cool in summer. These doors are 1 ¾ inches thick, and the addition of high-pressure injected polyurethane foam ensures this excellent thermal resistance factor. Suggested models include: Eastman, Cambridge, North Hatley, Standard+, or H-Tech.
- R-12: These door models have a total thickness of 1 3⁄8 inches and are injected with polyurethane foam. This insulation level is recommended for garages attached to a house that do not necessarily have a room above the garage. The R-12 insulation will also keep your garage at a comfortable temperature, allowing you to work in your garage comfortably throughout the year. Suggested models include: Stratton 138 or Acadia 138.
- R-10: This level of performance is found in a 2-inch thick steel door insulated with an expanded white polystyrene panel, such as Garaga’s TriForce™ door. The InterStop™ weatherstripping installed between the panels prevents air infiltration, and dried pine wood end blocks provide effective thermal breaks. With a different construction, it is an economical alternative to R-12.
- Non-Insulated: There are certain uses where garage door insulation is not required. This type of door is recommended for sheds or garages that are not insulated. Also, a non-insulated garage door is suitable for homeowners who convert their carport into a Florida Room or sunroom for the summer, or who have set up an outdoor living space in their backyard. Suggested models include: UniForce or California.
