Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Pennsylvania

I am currently living in Philadelphia and my house got broken into. They broke the lock and the door. When the cops came they said that my back door was used as a closet door and should have never been used as an outside door. Would I be responsible for replacing the lock and door or should the landlord for putting up a door that was clearly not used for an outside door?

Does your lease address this issue. Normally, a landlord would be responsible for a residential exterior door however I would need to review your lease.
