Question:

Do you ahve any suggestions on insulating a non-insulated garage door without going out and buying a new one? I ahve heard of blankets and foam panels, any suggestions?

Answer:

I've also heard of gluing on 2" rigid foam insulation and then flexible weather stripping at the hinges but I have not tried any of them. If this is just to avoid heat loss from the house, it may do you more harm than good in the way of creating condensation.
