Polyiso pieces cut list¶
Per panel, I need the following
- Two pieces that are 52.5 inches by 22 inches
- Two pieces that are 1.5 inches by 22 inches
- Two pieces that are 1.5 inches by 52.5 inches
To calculate the total number of pieces of polyiso foam you'll need, multiply the number of pieces needed for each panel by the total number of panels on both garage doors¶
- Two pieces that are 52.5 inches by 22 inches per panel x 8 panels per door x 2 doors = 32 pieces
- Two pieces that are 1.5 inches by 22 inches per panel x 8 panels per door x 2 doors = 32 pieces
- Two pieces that are 1.5 inches by 52.5 inches per panel x 8 panels per door x 2 doors = 32 pieces
Therefore, you'll need a total of 96 pieces of polyiso foam for both garage doors.
garage door outdoor measurements¶
For the exterior trim/moulding, the following measurements.
W 106.5 H 83
Garage door indoor/panel measurements¶
W 52.5 H 21 ish?

H 73.5 W 43.75
Calculate the total amount of shit I need¶
Sure, I can help you figure out how many sheets of polyiso foam you'll need for your project. Here are the steps:
-
Calculate the total area of each garage door panel. Each panel is 52.5 inches wide and 22 inches tall, so the total area of each panel is:
-
Convert the area of each panel to square feet. There are 144 square inches in a square foot, so the area of each panel in square feet is:
-
Calculate the total area of all the panels on both garage doors. Each garage door has 8 panels, so the total area of all the panels on both doors is:
-
Calculate the number of polyiso foam sheets you'll need. Each polyiso foam sheet is 4 feet wide and 8 feet tall, which is 32 square feet. Divide the total area of all the garage door panels by the area of each polyiso foam sheet to get the number of sheets needed:
-
Round up to the nearest whole sheet to account for any waste or errors
Hence, 5 pieces of foam.
Cut list to make the most efficient use of the polyiso foam sheets¶
-
For the two pieces that are 52.5 inches by 22 inches, cut each sheet of polyiso foam into four pieces that are 2 feet by 4 feet. Then, cut each of these 2 feet by 4 feet pieces into two pieces that are 52.5 inches by 22 inches. This will give you a total of 16 pieces that are 52.5 inches by 22 inches.
-
For the two pieces that are 1.5 inches by 22 inches, cut each sheet of polyiso foam into strips that are 1.5 inches wide and 8 feet long. Then, cut each strip into pieces that are 22 inches long. You'll get 64 pieces that are 1.5 inches by 22 inches.
-
For the two pieces that are 1.5 inches by 52.5 inches, cut each sheet of polyiso foam into strips that are 1.5 inches wide and 4 feet long. Then, cut each strip into pieces that are 52.5 inches long. You'll get 32 pieces that are 1.5 inches by 52.5 inches.
So, to shorten that up, here is a truncated cut list:
pieces:
52.5 inches by 22 inches
32 pieces
1.5 inches by 22 inches
32 pieces
1.5 inches by 52.5 inches
32 pieces
Weatherstripping for garage door¶
To calculate the number of pieces of weatherstripping trim you'll need, follow these steps:
-
Calculate the total length of the two spaces that are 83 inches tall on each door. Each door has two of these spaces, so the total length is:
2 spaces x 83 inches per space x 2 doors = 332 inches
-
Convert the total length of the two 83-inch spaces to feet by dividing by 12:
332 inches / 12 inches per foot = 27.67 feet
-
Calculate the length of the one space that is 108 inches long on each door. Each door has one of these spaces, so the total length is:
1 space x 108 inches per space x 2 doors = 216 inches
-
Convert the total length of the one 108-inch space to feet by dividing by 12:
216 inches / 12 inches per foot = 18 feet
-
Add the total length of the two 83-inch spaces and the one 108-inch space to get the total length of weatherstripping trim needed:
27.67 feet + 27.67 feet + 18 feet = 73.34 feet
-
Divide the total length of weatherstripping trim needed by the length of each piece of trim to get the number of pieces needed:
73.34 feet / 9 feet per piece = 8.15 pieces
Round up to the nearest whole piece to account for any waste or errors:
8.15 pieces rounded up to 9 pieces
Therefore, you'll need 9 pieces of weatherstripping trim to complete your project.
what I need to do¶
I need to buy several rolls of HVAC Foil tape. I need to figure out how many rolls of tape I'll need for the garage door.
each door has 8 panels.
16 panels.
each panel is approx 53 inches by 23 inches. (actual is 52.5 and 22 (ish))
it will need tape along each edge to keep the heat out
-
52 inches x 2 (per panel) x 8 (per door) = 32 pieces of tape at 52.5 inches
1,689 inches 140 feet 47 yards
-
22 inches x 2 (per panel) x 8 (per door) = 32 pieces of tape at 22 inches
704 inches 59 feet 20 yards
-
Total the amount of tape between both variables
2,393 inches 200 feet 67 yards
each roll of tape do be 50 yards. Gotta get 2 rolls of that shit.
