Hi @JustinMcAbbe,

You can screw a metal plate to the face of the door to cover the hole. Have a look at How to replace external door lock where @srik42 has used the same solution to a similar issue.

You can then install the combination lock as if the door had no hole to begin with.

Let me know what you think and if you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
