Is there a simple way of fitting a door to an arched internal walkway?

I could probably use off the shelf items for the doors and straight
bits, but how would the frame be fitted to the arch? Is there a wood
that can be shaped to accomodate the door then soaked or steamed to
get it to follow the contour?

There is no simple way. It is skilled work to make such a thing, hence
expensive.
A proper job is done on a specialist lathe that can handle large
diameters.
Often the headstock rotates 90deg from normal to get clearance.
It can be done by hand with spokeshaves etc but is very laborious.
