Garage Door Garage Door Insulation Ketchum, ID

Homeowners across Ketchum and the surrounding area call us for garage door insulation because we know Ketchum. The common drivers locally are heat-warped panels on west-facing steel doors, dust-blinded photo-eye safety sensors, prematurely fatigued springs from extreme thermal cycling, and dust-fouled tracks that bind and throw the door off level — and we fix the cause, not just the symptom.

The environment around Ketchum is unforgiving on hardware. A high, dry climate of intense summer heat, sharp overnight cooling, and very little annual precipitation means low ambient humidity that dries out factory track lubrication fast, dust storms that pack debris into tracks and photo-eye sensors, and extreme summer heat that bakes and warps lightweight steel panels, so we build every quote around durability.

Most Ketchum service tickets come down to heat-warped panels on west-facing steel doors, dust-blinded photo-eye safety sensors, prematurely fatigued springs from extreme thermal cycling, and dust-fouled tracks that bind and throw the door off level. We carry the springs, cables, rollers, and opener boards to handle all of them out of one truck.

Garage door insulation is one of the cheapest energy upgrades available to most homeowners with attached garages. Uninsulated steel doors radiate heat into the garage all afternoon — and into the adjacent rooms whose walls share with the garage. Adding R-8 to R-18 insulation cuts measured heat transfer by up to 71%, drops attached-garage temperatures by 10–15°F on hot days, and noticeably reduces the AC load on rooms that share walls with the garage.

We do retrofit insulation on existing steel doors using EPS foam panels cut to fit each section, with reflective vinyl facing and a perimeter seal. The retrofit takes 2–3 hours per door, can be done in place without removing panels, and works on most thin-skinned and double-skinned steel doors. Wood doors and full-view doors aren't candidates for retrofit insulation — we'll tell you upfront if your door doesn't suit the upgrade.

Beyond energy, insulation makes the door significantly quieter. The foam dampens panel resonance, which is the main source of bass-y rumble during operation. Homeowners often comment that the noise reduction alone justified the project. For homes with bedrooms above the garage, this is meaningful.

Signs you need garage door insulation

• Attached garage gets very hot in summer

  Uninsulated doors on the sunny side of a home easily push attached-garage temperatures to 105–115°F. Insulation drops that 10–15°F.

• Room next to garage runs warm

  Bedroom or living space that shares a wall with the garage often runs 3–5°F warmer than the rest of the house. Door insulation helps; wall insulation is the bigger fix.

• AC bill spikes in summer

  Attached garages bleed conditioned air through the door if there's a return-air path. Insulation slows the heat ingress.

• Garage workshop or gym in use

  Spending hours in the garage on hot days is uncomfortable without insulation. The upgrade pays back fast for active garage users.

• Excessive door noise

  Uninsulated panels resonate during travel. Insulation foam dampens the resonance for a noticeable noise reduction.

Common causes & what we fix

• Builder-grade non-insulated doors

  Tract construction commonly uses the cheapest non-insulated steel doors. They meet building code but ignore comfort and energy efficiency.

• Sun-side exposure

  South and west-facing garages take the brunt of afternoon sun locally. Insulation is highest-leverage on these exposures.

• Habitable space above garage

  Bonus rooms and bedrooms over the garage transfer heat from below. Door insulation helps; full ceiling insulation is the bigger lever.

• Garage as workshop or gym

  If you use the garage for work or workouts, comfort improvements have direct quality-of-life payback.

• Older home with no garage insulation

  Pre-1990s homes often have no insulation in the garage at all. Door insulation is a logical first step.
