A door is only as secure as its hardware. Multi-point locking systems engage at three or more points along the frame simultaneously, distributing force across the entire door — far harder to force open than a single center lock.

Reinforced strike plates and hinges anchored into the frame (not just the surface) prevent the door from being levered open, which is how many break-ins on lower-quality doors occur.
Weather seals also play a security role — a well-sealed door leaves no gap for tools to be inserted at the frame edge.
When comparing quotes, ask specifically about locking points and hinge anchoring — these details matter more to security than the door material itself.
