Top Five Benefits of Insulated Garage Door Installation

posted on July 24, 2022

Did you know that you can install an insulated garage door for your home? Read on to find out how this small change can have a major impact!

Insulated Garage Doors Installed For Energy Efficiency

While your garage may not be a primary living space, it’s usually connected directly to the rest of your home. Installing an insulated garage door helps maintain a more moderate temperature inside your garage. Therefore, when you open the door into the rest of your home, you’re not letting in gusts of cold or hot air along with you.

This means that your heating and cooling system doesn’t have to work as hard to maintain the interior temperature of your home. When it comes to overall energy efficiency (and lower heating and cooling costs), every little bit helps!

Protect Your Car With an Insulated Overhead Door

Your car is probably the most valuable thing you keep in your garage. In fact, one of the major reasons to have a garage is to protect your vehicle from the elements.

Having the garage structure around your car is helpful, but having an insulated garage door is the best way to fully protect your investment. An insulated door will help keep all the elements of your car at a safe and optimal temperature, including:

  • the car battery
  • brake, engine, and transmission fluids
  • air & air pressure in tires
  • wiring & spark plugs

An insulated garage door, even without any additional heating or cooling measures, can make a huge difference in your car’s environment and condition!

Improve Storage Conditions in Your Garage

If you’ve ever seen an advertisement for storage units, you probably know that being “climate controlled” is a big selling point. That’s because everything is affected by temperature, even the stuff we store and don’t use every day.

Many people keep extra paint, tools, and household items in their garages. All of these can be negatively impacted by temperature fluctuations, especially major swings into heat or cold.

An insulated garage door will keep all of these items in a moderate temperature range, which means that you won’t come out to find that your paint has spoiled or your extra dishes have cracked due to extreme heat or cold.

Avoid Garage Door Repair With an Insulated Door

Garage door insulation exists as a layer between the exterior surface on both the front and the back. This insulation layer not only helps with temperature regulation inside the garage but also inherently serves to improve the structural integrity of the door itself.

If an object blown by the wind hits an uninsulated garage door, for example, it may cause a significant dent because there’s nothing directly behind the front surface. If the same object hits an insulated door, the insulation provides enough structure that the damage will most likely be minimal. 

Due to the fact that an insulated garage door is more substantial, you’ll be faced with less damage and fewer repairs throughout the life of the door.

Choose an Insulated Garage Door for Greater Convenience

We’ve talked about how modulating the temperature in your garage is good for your home’s energy efficiency and for your car and belongings, but we haven’t mentioned how it’s convenient for you as well!

While an uninsulated door provides some protection from the elements, an insulated garage door provides even more. An insulated door means you can move from your house to your garage with only a small change in temperature. 

Insulated garage doors are also quieter than traditional doors. The interior insulation dampens sound as the door goes up and down. This means that there’s less noise disturbance to people in the house when the door is activated.
