A god oil-base marine varnish will work. Like Milt said, see f you can get it out of state. I have a south facing wood door with McCloskeys on it, seems fine.
The oil based enamels were discontinued about 6 to 9 months ago. You can still get oil primer and lacquer though, so oil varnish might still be available. I don't know.
Make sure you varnish the top and bottom of the door,inside the knob holes, as well as behind the hinges. This is very important if you want to keep the door from swelling and/or soaking any moisture.
