Have dug large raised beds using old doors claimed from skips.

Have had some members suggest lead paint may be a factor to consider but I think so long as they are new(ish) it should be OK...lead paint has not been in use from about 70s and was banned in 50s.

Can send off samples to check for lead if very worried as can cause health problems, especially for youngsters

good luck
