Our garage door insulation service covers all of Mulvane: Mulvane and the surrounding area. Set in Kansas's continental-climate region, these doors face doors frozen to the slab on the coldest mornings, freeze-thaw cycles that crack seals and loosen hardware, and ice that binds the bottom panel to the threshold, and we plan every repair around it.
Weather matters more than most Mulvane homeowners expect. Local conditions — warm, wet summers and cold winters with snow and ice, driving repeated freeze-thaw cycles on exterior hardware — drive doors frozen to the slab on the coldest mornings, freeze-thaw cycles that crack seals and loosen hardware, and ice that binds the bottom panel to the threshold, so we recommend hardware and seals suited to Kansas's continental-climate region.
The short list of what goes wrong on Mulvane garage doors: ice- and snow-jammed tracks, freeze-thaw-cracked bottom seals, warped or sagging panels after years of freeze-thaw, and openers straining against cold-thickened grease. Whatever's on yours, the diagnosis is free on most repairs and the quote is in writing.
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.
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.

Frequently asked about garage door insulation
Top questions homeowners searching for Garage Door Insulation near me ask us:
How does the climate in Mulvane, KS affect my garage door?
Local weather drives most of the repairs we run in Mulvane: with warm and doors frozen to the slab on the coldest mornings, freeze-thaw cycles that crack seals and loosen hardware, and ice that binds the bottom panel to the threshold, the common failure modes are ice- and snow-jammed tracks, freeze-thaw-cracked bottom seals, warped or sagging panels after years of freeze-thaw, and openers straining against cold-thickened grease. Our Mulvane trucks stock the parts those conditions wear out first, so most jobs are a single visit.
How old are most garage doors in Mulvane?
The median Mulvane home dates to 1981, with 49% of the stock built before 1980 — a real mix of original and already-replaced doors, which is why we quote repair-versus-replace honestly on every call.
Does it work on every door?
Most thin-skinned steel doors — yes. Double-skinned steel — varies, sometimes already insulated. Wood and full-view doors — no, retrofit isn't possible. We assess during the quote.
How long does installation take?
2–3 hours per single door, slightly longer for double doors. We can do everything in one visit without removing the door.
What R-value should I get?
R-8 is the entry level and provides meaningful improvement. R-12 is the sweet spot for most homes. R-18 is overkill for the local climate but a fine choice for sound-dampening priority.
Will the door still operate normally?
Yes — insulation foam adds only a few pounds per panel, and we re-tune the spring tension and opener force to match the new weight as part of the install.
