The best way to insulate the garage door is with double bubble, foil on both-sides insulation. Its a fraction of the weight of rigid foam. Your garage door motor will thank you. Its also easy to fit in the recesses of the garage door structures. We got ours at;

Our door faces east & the temp on the outside of the door has reached 145 degrees while the inside is now 95 degrees. We also installed garage door vents & the garage is now no hotter than the outside air.
