The existing-door split, stated head-on first
| Frame | What it counts | 2026 band |
|---|---|---|
| Frame A | retail kits, materials only, no labour | $50-$200 |
| Frame A | foam-board kits, materials only | $30-$130 |
| Frame B | professional installation, typical, the fitted job | $200-$500 |
| Frame B | higher-grade professional retrofits, the fitted job | $300-$1,000 |
This cluster prices insulating an existing sectional garage door alone: a retrofit job on a door already hung, counted by door size as listed crossed with kit form. Split head-on against whole-garage wall-and-ceiling insulation, factory-insulated replacement doors, weatherstripping and perimeter seals, and smart openers. Frame A counts materials bought retail; Frame B counts the fitted job.
Frame A lines, as reported: kit materials, no labour
| Frame A line, as published | Reading | 2026 band |
|---|---|---|
| Retail kits | materials only, per door | $50-$200 |
| Foam-board kits | materials only, per door | $30-$130 |
| Kit for a one-car door | materials only, by size as listed | $50-$300 |
| Kit for a two-car door | materials only, by size as listed | $90-$530 |
| Kit for a three-car span | materials only, by size as listed | $130-$890 |
Frame A, counted kit by kit: the retail band carries kit materials alone, the foam-board band sits inside it, and the by-size rows widen as the door span widens. No labour line prints in Frame A, and no kit figure is an installed figure.
Frame B lines, as reported: the fitted job
| Frame B line, as published | Reading | 2026 band |
|---|---|---|
| Professional installation, typical | the fitted job, per door | $200-$500 |
| Higher-grade professional retrofits | the fitted job, per door | $300-$1,000 |
| Kit materials | counted inside each fitted band | no kit line printed apart |
Frame B, counted job by job: the typical band carries the fitted job whole, and the higher-grade band carries fitted retrofits in higher-grade kit forms. Frame B prints no kit or labour figure apart.
Ticket honesty, and the neighbours differentiated
Ticket honesty: this is a low-ticket job, and the bands above say so — no figure in this cluster is read toward a replacement-door band. The garage door replacement hub prices factory-insulated replacement doors, a new door priced whole. The weatherstripping cluster prices weatherstripping and perimeter seals. Whole-garage wall-and-ceiling insulation prices wall and ceiling surfaces, and smart openers sit in their own guide. This cluster prices the existing-door retrofit alone, apart from the replacement bands.
