| Make sure you seal around the foam and don't just put it in the door or the heat/cold will come right around it. Mine is a steel door, insulated with the same stuff and it makes a difference. I don't know if you have them but weather stripping all the way around the outside of the door also helps...

| I never knew I could insulate my garage door, and I never knew a thread about that subject would make me laugh. Good job, guys!  I am going to Lowe's tomorrow.
