Slide the right pin in and tap / hit / smack the bar with a hammer to slide the door pin out.

Tap the bottom of the hinge pin upwards gently so as not to spread it, then when there is enough of the top showing get a pair of small mole grips or pliers under the neck and keep tapping the underside until the pin comes free.
