Terraforming a very cold planet?

One of the solution to make a cold planet habitable for us is to increase the greenhouse effect. It works with planets like Mars that are inside the habitable zone but would it be enough for a planet outside of that zone?

It does maximize the heat absorption of the planet but there is a limit to this. We can't increase the gas concentrations too much.

For example: In Star Wars, the city-planet-capital Coruscant is heated by mirrors that are deflecting the light of the star toward the planet.
