Framed, Ledged Braced Door For Shed - Security?

Hi All,
I'm looking at fitting a new door to my shed - at the moment it has a repurposed door with windows which have been boarded up - not overly secure. The shed itself is single layer brick construction with felt roof. So although I'm sure someone could work their way into it, you could say that its probably going to be more than average hard work.
Given the door is currently the weak point, I want to replace with a FLB softwood treated door.
Just wondering if anyone had any tips on security of this door - are there any traditional weak points I should look at ensuring I have covered? I would ideally like to re-use the old frame, is this an issue?
