anyone know of a high r value carriage style garage door?

User
16 years ago

I am shopping for a garage door with a decent R value since I have a very cold bonus room over the garage. I definitely want a carriage house style door but can't find a company that makes this style in an insulated door. The doors which have a R value of 12-17 all seem to be regular style metal insulated doors. An R value of 12 would be great or anywhere close to that.

Thanks in advance for any recommendations.
