Not sure what you mean by the scrollbar frame.
Doing (setq-default scroll-bar-width 50) works for me (on MS Windows) -
it gives me a scroll bar that has a width of 50.
Scroll bars depend on your platform, and whether Emacs was built
to use a toolkit (and which toolkit). You might want to file a
bug (`M-x report-emacs-bug'), but it's possible that nothing can
be done about this on your platform etc.
