The highly reflective garage door insulation is made up of two layers of extra pure aluminium foil reflecting 97% of radiant heat. Each layer of foil is heat laminated to a tough layer polyethylene sandwiching air pockets for thermal insulation. The lightweight yet tough construction of Reflecta-GDI Plus™ ensures hassle free DIY installation which is both cost effective and durable.

  1. Geraldine Taylor

    This product is incredibly easy to install. It took 2 of us just under 2 hours to install. Lightweight with no PPE needed when handling it. I’m impressed and will sing its praises to anyone who is interested. The fact that it cost less than $140.00 was the added bonus.
