You have to lift off the whole door, the hinge pins are part of the top hinge-plate. if it's a bit stuck, I've layed it down on it's back & using a block of wood on the bottom of the door , give it a tap with a mallet

Yeah - the door comes off just like a round top.
For some reason, I think the square tops doors are a little more stubborn.

Anbody know what size the hinge pin is?  I missing the lower pin but have the hinges. .  Looking for replacement pin so I can hang the door back on.  I suspect it fell off during transport?

Old thread...but maybe someone can chime in....
