We build our own cabin doors out of 2x10 planks and lots of metal bolts. It is only thing that keep our grizzly, black bear and rif /raf guests out.

This, I would think for a cabin strength and multiple bolt locks would be the end goal.

I know someone who works at a window/door place... I ask about ball park costs on custom sized doors... he said that for a custom door the price of the door slab doubles, and the lead time goes out to 6-8 weeks. The exception being if it is a standard width they might be able to cut down a standard door to a custom height.

Might be cheaper to re-frame the door???

Its not hard to make a cabin door,i could do it if i knew where you lived,you might be too far away to bother.
