Wouldn’t installing a door frame the opposite way just make it stronger?

Like opening outwards instead of inwards, the frame would face the opposite way and be (I assume) harder to break inwards

I don’t know that smashing down a door is as common of a way people break into houses compared to defeating or bypassing the lock somehow. That’s certainly a lot easier to do without people hearing or noticing much. Another thing about an outward swinging front door is that the hinges are now on the outside. There are security pins that can’t be easily removed, but it’s better to not even let attackers get access to a potential weak point.
