Exterior doors, ideally, are very strong. If it’s an access point, it’s a weakness.
@Call_Me_Jay may have a good idea. If that could be arranged, you’d have it both ways.
I’ve hung doors many times, and it’s not as easy as it sounds. As far as it functioning well, and shutting tight. Screen/storm doors, could add complications.
Hey Dutch. If you’re already hanging a door, make sure to check the doorframe. If the wood it damp, or rotten anywhere you can replace that while you’re at it.
If you intend to paint the door, paint everything but the edges while the door is not on hinges and therefore easier to handle. You’ll maybe scratch the paint installing it, so paint your edges and apply touch ups when the door is considered done.
Goodluck. Doors can make a huge difference in what a place looks like. Like rims on a car.
I hope it works out like you want.
