These two sentences seem unrelated, yet somehow I feel bad for Judy.

I was thinking pressure treated is what I would replace it with. *Any
tips on method, before I just get into it?

That's like asking for advice on how to change a tire, and we don't
know if it's a bicycle or a band saw! Many questions - is the door
frame metal or wood? Do the jambs sit on the existing threshold? Is
there rot there now? What's up with the lintel you mentioned? What's
under the existing threshold? Can you tell if the existing threshold
is a replacement? Is there currently, or should there be,
weatherstripping at the bottom of the door? Front, back or garage
door?

If it's wood, and you want to replace it with wood (might not be the
best choice) I would use some Ipe. Your local lumberyard will most
likely have it. It's one of those tropical hardwoods that is hard as
crap, very dense, holds up well outdoors, and isn't half bad looking.
It's commonly used for decking and left bare.
