In short. Ask about insulation when the garage is under living space or used as a workshop. Get the rating of the actual door on the estimate. A new seal still matters.
An insulated steel door slows heat loss through the slab. It does not seal the floor. People in this climate ask about it for rooms over the garage and for garages they work in during winter. Coastal owners also ask because a steel face is the usual material, with salt air as a separate finish question.
Ratings differ by the door that is ordered. Ask for the rating in the estimate rather than trusting a round number from a general article. Insulation adds weight, so the springs are matched at installation.
If the current door is a single dented section, insulation is not automatically the next step. Panel replacement may be enough. If the whole door is tired, replacement is the other path.
