A door assembly for presenting a closeable doorway opening includes a door and a door reinforcement brace. The door is operable to be swingably mounted for swinging movement into and out of a closed position in which the door is located generally within the doorway opening. The door presents opposite interior and exterior surfaces and a perimetric edge surface. The brace is attached to the door to overlie at least portions of the interior and edge surfaces to reinforce the door, with no part of the door reinforcement brace extending exteriorly beyond the exterior surface of the door.
