But there is noise coming from the other room. Can you explain how I can insulate the door to make it as soundproof as possible? Since the door will be removed and replaced with a wall at some later time, any temporary measures can be taken now regardless of the damage to the door. I need to find out what method works best in terms of reducing noise.

How you attach these is flexible, but if it was me, I would build a box out of cheap MDF that fits the batts and allows the box to be screwed onto the sides of the architrave. Then paint and you have a really good temporary solution that is still reversible if necessary.

I understand that I can use adhesive strips along the perimeter of the door, and a door sweep at the bottom. The door can be wrapped with some material to be closed tightly. Perhaps I should also use a sealant to seal any remaining openings. Some stores sell seal kits, as they are called, which are sets of things needed to seal a door.
