R-value measures insulating performance — higher is better. For attached garages and workshops, a mid-to-high R-value door is worth the modest premium; for a detached, unused garage, a basic door may be fine.
An insulated door slows heat transfer, keeping the garage closer to a comfortable temperature year-round. If a room sits above or beside the garage, that stability shows up directly in comfort and energy use.
