Hi Everyone!
It’s that time of the year again when we start getting ready for winter. In my case I need to insulate my shop’s garage door. I’m currently using a 12X20 garage with only one point of entry, an eight-foot wide overhead door. The shop is pretty well insulated and I heat it with my homes force air furnace and a couple of electric heaters. It works OK except when the temperature really drop. I can feel the cold coming thru the door and when I enter and exit the heat gets sucked out. This is a panel door with no insulation and at this point I’m not looking to replace it since I expect to be moving in the spring. So guys I’m looking for suggestions on how to minimize the heat loss without spending a lot of money.
Thanks in advance for your comments and or suggestions.

Rick, you have the same problem I had. Get some 1/2 inch foil faced urethane board insulation. Cut the stock to fit the panels and dab the four corners and center with a good mastic and press onto the panels. It's cheap, quick, no weight to change the door balance and makes a significant gain in warmth.
