Strike plate/Hinge reinforcement

The main weak points in door entryways lie in where the door makes contact with the frame. These are the hinges and the door strike plate; both require the screws to be replaced with three-inch screws. The studs of the door frame itself that is a part of the house are made of solid lumber: therefore reinforcing the door using the frame of the house instead.

The frame from which your door hangs however is made of cheap wood, and should not be relied upon for security as they are known to shatter under brute force.
