Well, you already have comments to minimize the heaving, I'll attack the problem a little different. Once the door is where you want it, e.g. it latches properly and the space all around the door is equidistant, take 1/2" sheets of plywood and screw or nail them in around the door frame to the pole barn structure. This will provide a rigid area that will have to move together when the frost moves things. It was not clear to me if there was concrete under the door frame or not. If the concrete moves indenpendently of the building wall and door frame then I suggest you remove the concrete out from under the door frame. That way when the concrete moves it will miss the door frame. Said another way, you want the concrete to move independent of the builing poles and door frame. Paul in WI.
