How can I remove the door of a Scan Andersen 4-5 wood burning stove?

I was thinking it might go down first now the grub screw is out, dislocate from the top hinge and then lift.

 

Else use more oil and screwdriver under the bottom hinge pin mushroom head

 

I would leave well enough alone and glue the rope in with the door on, maybe with a clamp or two starting at the top.

 It seems there is a hole at the bottom of the stove that allows the bottom hinge pin to be driven out, thanks to @Kernow Jack who has not been able to post direct:

 

I've just managed to remove this door, it was quite a job though. As I read in the posts above the 2 door hinge pins are each held in place by a short hexagon headed grub screw, which I managed to loosen with a few squirts of WD 40 from the door hingering. however the pins themselves didn't want to move at all. Both the top and the bottom pin had smooth rounded heads which were visible top one looking up and bottom one looking down. I found a round opening underneath the door where I could reach the bottom end of the bottom pin and after a long battle finally managed to hammer this pin out (again using WD 40 liberaly) by first pushng the door up so that top hingering against the top of the stove hedge, then trapping a nailpunch tight between the botom of the bottom pin and a metal block on the floor and then giver the door a few hammer blows down from the top of the door. repeating this procedure lots of time the bottom pin finally was pushed up free from its hold and I could the lower the door free from it top hold.
