Check the top and bottom of the door. All six sides of the door must be sealed in order for any finish to perform as design. I used to sell building materials and can't tell you how many expensive doors I have seen ruined because the painter did not finish/seal the top and the bottom. Also a good UV inhibiting varnish should help. You could always strip and try an oil finish, but it will not be maintainance free, will probably take frequent applications of additional oil to maintain a good finish. Good luck
