Building to 7 stars? ThermaDoor is the only garage door insulation with the engineering documentation your energy assessor needs.
ThermaDoor is designed and manufactured in Queensland, with our factory at Chevallum on the Sunshine Coast. When you order ThermaDoor for New England and the Snowy Mountains or anywhere in New South Wales, you are buying Australian made insulation from a business that has engineered its product specifically for the Australian climate.
From the scorching summer days in Tamworth and Armidale to the hot inland afternoons across the New England tablelands, ThermaDoor dramatically reduces radiant heat transfer, keeping your garage significantly cooler during long, dry summers.
The Snowy Mountains and higher elevations around Cooma and Jindabyne experience hard frosts, ice, and alpine conditions in winter. ThermaDoor's laminated vinyl finish is water-resistant and won't absorb moisture, unlike open-cell foam or polyester batts that can sag, degrade, and hold dampness over time.
New England and Snowy Mountains winters are among the harshest in NSW. ThermaDoor slows heat loss overnight, so stepping into your garage on a winter morning is no longer a shock — and your stored gear stays protected year-round.
NSW's NCC 7-star energy requirements now apply to all new homes and major renovations. An uninsulated garage door performs at approximately R0.0 — one of the biggest thermal liabilities in any home. ThermaDoor is the only garage door insulation in Australia with independently calculated assembly R-values to AS/NZS 4859.2:2018. When your builder or energy assessor asks about garage door insulation, ask for ThermaDoor by name.

For Deborah’s son, an NDIS participant, the garage is “The Cave” — a vital space for his independence and his support team. They had already invested in an epoxy floor and replastering to create something special. But the heat made it almost unusable.

Australia’s original purpose-built garage door insulation — independently tested, made to fit, built to last.
Surface temperature readings: 37.6°C at the steel hinge (thermal bridge) / 32.6°C at the ThermaDoor panel
What you are seeing: The blue areas show ThermaDoor panels doing their job — blocking radiant heat. The red and orange areas are the steel hinges and panel joins conducting heat straight through the door. This is thermal bridging, and it happens in every sectional garage door. It is why material R-values alone do not tell the full story — and why ThermaDoor’s R-values are calculated on the complete installed door assembly, steel and all.
Our article on thermal bridging and garage doors explains why tested assembly values matter.
In New England & Snowy Mountains, the difference between a material R-value and a tested door assembly R-value is the difference between a product that looks good on paper and one that actually keeps your garage cooler. ThermaDoor’s R1.43 is tested on a complete installed door — steel, hinges, and all.

Peter Harding shares his experience with ThermaDoor garage door insulation after having it installed three times over 12 years.
Real results for real New England & Snowy Mountains homeowners
I had my west facing garage door insulated and sealing brushes added to stop dust, some of the best money I have ever spent on a house improvement. Great service, efficient and reasonably priced. I would recommend in a flash.
We’re super impressed with our newly-installed Thermadoor insulation, it works a treat on our north-facing garage door and looks very sharp. Top marks for customer service and Caleb’s very neat and tidy job on the install. Highly recommend this outfit
This is a great product and service. Installed them myself and they work amazingly well. Great price compared to other companies who quoted me and Peter was super helpful in getting the sizing just right. Thoroughly recommend this product and company.

With a stable, comfortable temperature year-round, New England & Snowy Mountain homeowners are reclaiming their garages as usable living spaces.
Here is how ThermaDoor changes what you can do with your garage.
Train comfortably year-round — no more sweltering summers or chilly winters.
Quieter, more stable temperatures for better focus and lower energy bills.
A retreat that stays cool in summer and warm in winter for real downtime.
Consistent conditions that protect materials and make projects more enjoyable.
A safer, more comfortable space for children’s play – fewer drafts and hot/cold spots.
A calmer climate for pets, reducing heat stress in summer and chills in winter.
ThermaDoor has been on the Australian market since 2012 — and in that time, no other brand has matched what we offer:
Flame retardant, construction-grade expanded polystyrene foam is the primary insulator in every ThermaDoor panel. It slows conducted heat transfer through the door — keeping your garage significantly cooler in summer and warmer in winter, year after year.
Durable, flame retardant, UV-resistant vinyl facing protects the panel from Australia's harsh climate. It resists fading, cracking, and weathering — delivering a clean, professional finish that holds its appearance and structural integrity for the life of the door.
Bonded to the back of every panel, this construction-grade foil reflects radiant heat, acts as a Class 2 vapour barrier, and achieves Group 1 fire performance classification. It's the same foil used to wrap Australian homes — completing the three-layer system.

BEFORE YOU BUY
Most garage door insulation products are marketed using terminology borrowed from walls and ceilings. This free checklist gives you the five questions that cut through the noise — and that most suppliers cannot answer.
Yes — and in this region it works harder than almost anywhere else in NSW. New England & Snowy Mountains homes experience both extreme summer heat and sub-zero winter temperatures. ThermaDoor’s EPS panels block up to 90% of radiant heat in summer and significantly slow heat loss in winter, making your garage usable year-round rather than a space you avoid for six months of the year.
Yes. ThermaDoor panels use a laminated vinyl facing that is water-resistant and will not absorb moisture, sag, or degrade in cold, damp alpine conditions. Unlike open-cell foam or polyester batts, ThermaDoor is purpose-built for Australian conditions and will not be affected by frost, condensation, or the freeze-thaw cycles common in higher elevation areas like Jindabyne and Cooma.
Yes. ThermaDoor DIY kits are designed for homeowners with no trade experience. Each kit is purpose-built for your specific door size — sectional or tilt — and ships directly to your door anywhere in the New England & Snowy Mountains region. Most installations are completed in a few hours using basic hand tools. Full instructions and video guides are included.
Yes. ThermaDoor has authorised distributors in Armidale, Tamworth, and Cooma who can supply and professionally install ThermaDoor insulation. Contact details are listed on this page. If you are in a more remote area, a DIY kit delivered to your door is the most practical option.
Yes. NSW’s NCC 7-star energy requirements apply to all new homes and major renovations. An uninsulated garage door performs at approximately R0.0 — one of the biggest thermal liabilities in any home. ThermaDoor is the only garage door insulation in Australia with independently calculated assembly R-values to AS/NZS 4859.2:2018. When your builder or energy assessor asks about garage door insulation, ask for ThermaDoor by name.
ThermaDoor panels are engineered for long-term durability in all Australian climates, including cold alpine environments. The EPS core does not absorb moisture and the laminated vinyl facing resists UV, frost, and temperature cycling. ThermaDoor carries a manufacturer’s warranty and has been independently tested to Australian standards. There is no maintenance required after installation.
