I don't recommend trying to remove the hinge pins. only the door stop / keeper stay pin. You may damage the door sheet metal trying to remove the lower hinge pin. the bolts work fine as he said. Take a pencil and mark the corners of the hinges both on the top and on the bottom hinge to aid in alignment upon re-installation.
Good luck. ...also a second set of hands as well as the milk crate (preferably a plastic one or a metal one with a towel) to pad the top of the crate will help lower the chances of damaging the door during the process. |
