Is 93″ batt insulation sufficient for my 95″ tall garage walls, or should I use rolls to ensure proper coverage?

Can you believe it? When I measured my garage walls, they are 95 inches tall inside, but the batt insulation is only 93 inches! Do you think this is normal? Will I have enough material to make it work, or should I use rolls instead to fill the gap?
Batteries are frequently used in that size, just pick up some bats and grab roll insulation
Use 2lb closed cell foam to spray foam it. You’ll thank yourself later. Fiberglass is not great. Feel free to call us tomorrow if you have any questions, our number is on our page.
Plate?
Mentioned it’s located between the plate, I’m going to grab a roll
Thumbs up from
93 inches is okay, not too big of a deal. Cut a few 3 inch pieces to fill the space. Let’s keep going.
The standard length for studs is 92 5/8″, but garages need to be taller to fit the door. My garage is at 8′, which is just enough room for the opener. The rail is pressed against the Sheetrock ceiling. Consider yourself lucky if you’re able to manually open the door for as long as you own the home.
