Peter,
As you now know, the pins are likely to foul the pillar so you might consider slackening the 17mm hinge retaining nuts inside the pikar to allow the assembly to be drawn away from the pillar enough to create the necessary clearance.
I assume you have already undone the restraining straps at the bottom of the doors. (I recommend dropping something like a long split pin throught the hole in the stay to discourage it from falling inside the door with all the hassle that means). If you fold one door flat against the other you will have access to the pins but reduce the possibility of hitting the surface of the doors.
