Need to replace outside Door.
 
I need to replace an outside door. Does anyone know where i can buy an outside door? i do not need a new frame. The existing door only has 1 lockset.

Lowes and Home Depot have outside doors with 2 locksets.

Not sure what you're asking, but a handyman should be able to add a deadbolt to your existing door fairly easily, even if the door is metal. Several YouTube on doing it.

I agree find a door you like, add the deadbolt, and do not use it!

I want to purchase a new outside door that has a hole for one lockset

I have replaced quite a few doors. You do not want to replace the door without the frame for two reasons.

The door, if replaced within the existing frame, will never quite seal correctly no matter how good you are.

Availability, there aren't many door only options out there.

Agree, I know I would not want to try to replace only the door trying to line everything up with the original frame. What you save in the purchase cost (if any) you'll likely more than make up in labor and aggravation. Good luck with whatever you choose.
