If you would have left it overlapping from one panel to the next panel above, you could have insulated the gap between panels.

This the first video I’ve seen that has someone installing the foil barrier away from the surface of the door. I googled it and they call for a minimum 1 inch gap. You stated in the beginning a 1/4 inch gap which might be better than no gap but not much. Your installation probably gives the best results possible for that type of insulation.

Good, but the door braces are wrong, they should point to the lower hinge - just sayin'

Came to say the same thing. The bracing isn’t decorative - it serves the purpose of transferring the weight of the top to the bottom.

I am sure my garage is insulated as part of my house is above it. Any insulating of a steel door should provide some measurable difference. It does not hurt to try for this small cost. Mine still looks like the day i installed it.

This might be a silly question but why not have the excess insulation overlap the other section of insulation? Wouldnt that ensure that no air leaks between the panels?

This is ridiculous. What are you gonna do when a hole is poked through. I mean it looks nice.

the foil is resistant to being poked into. at that point you could apply aluminum tape to the hole. It has been over a year now. I have opened the door over 1000 times and brush up against it regularly. I have no holes or any other issues
@teched99569 ай бұрын
Your garage door technician is going to 'love' you! He is going to rip out half your insulation when he has to get to the hinges to maintainyour doors. Then when your opener wears out because the door is too heavy, he is going to relish the hearfty bill he leaves you with to upgrade your springs and replace the opener.

I placed the product in one continuous length across the width of the door and mounted it to the top of the metal supports to create an air pocket between the door surface and the insulation. For my installation I chose to use 3M high bond double sided foam tape and I also placed the product under the hinges for added security. Self tapping screws were also added.

Cool, or should I say, warm. I was wondering if leaving the excess flap over the seam instead of removing (last horizontal cuts made) would have aided in stopping air flow and perhaps assisted the vapor barrier's effectiveness. Seems it may just hover and flow with the movement of the door or maybe bind and cau0se issues?
@tnt2938 Жыл бұрын
I am not sure if it would make a difference. The seams are tight when the door is closed. I will have to check and see if i have any air flow on a windy day.
