Based on garden gates made by this method, I’d say that if water somehow finds its way in between the laminates (usually at the joint lines) and temperatures then fall below freezing, a long lasting door might not be the outcome.
Another reflection, if allowed: if the glue (epoxy, I imagine) were to block moisture from penetrating into the middle board, could that, given the strength of glued butt joints, result in the outer board still taking the two inners ones with it as it warps?
