It has been my experience that the required by building code "hurricane reinforcement bars" that run the width of garage doors makes it more than a little problematic to properly install foam panels .... it can be done with the bars in place but it is not easy and removing the bars, insulating and reinstalling the bars is also not a day in the park.
We removed the stiffeners across the door - we just have one door for a 2 car garage.

It was very simple and easy and the entire job didn't not take very long - about 3 hours I think including measuring and cutting the panels.
