I think you are stuck doing a custom door for this condition. Build it with slabs, walls, etc. Make a slab with an ID of wallhole to get the correct cutout.
Look at the manual for specifics.

After you have built your window in the plan, make one more slab
that is the exact shape of the outside of your window frame and is
positioned exactly in the same place as the frame. Give this slab the ID
"Wallhole" and save the assembly as a window object. You don't have
to edit the script because there will be a wallhole command in the script.
The ID is set in the info pallet box in the text field labeled "ID" which is
usually a number that you change to read "Wallhole" (without the quotes)

Custom Components are not relevant in this context.
Please build a complete door including frame, panel,
interior trim and exterior trim. Please see this thread.

I did all that you suggested.
Create a door panel using a slab.
created a frame using beams (simply profile 2x4 frame).
created another slab for use with the wall I.D. hole.
when I selected all 3 parts, and went thru the steps...it captured the objects yet...the only that is show in 3d and in plan is the wall opening.
Neither the door nor the frames show up......like I said....there's just some minut step I'm missing I'm sure.
I can believe a simple beveled top door is taking this long.
My boss is gonna hang me by a tree for burning so much project time.

Are you building your door centered on
the project origin and on the first story ?
If you build on any other story the door
elements will be displaced and appear
far away from the wall they are supposed to be in.

Should I be building the door "centered" on the project "X" origin 'AND' also on the first floor???
if that is the case..I'll try that now and see what results it gives me.
