i reckon a builder could knock that door down in no time, by removing the timber frame cover
and belting the door cavity off the house frame in one hit!
Attacking the frame and where its connected to the bricks is the weakest point. 10/10 for you Joe
Lucky most crims are not that clever and will just attack the door

Or has happened to our premises - remove the bricks from the wall and crawl through. Harder work than the scary heights of roofs!

Remember the sounds of those sledgehammers battering the door...picture that noise in a highrise. People 10 floors up would hear that. The thought of that hammering echoing down the halls really made me laugh. Even in a residential neighbourhood it would carry for blocks. Watch again and picture that going on next door, seeing it, and try not to laugh.

Strengthen your locks and frames and buy dual locks.

Good advice in there.
I'm guessing the door in the OP is designed for a safe room.
