There are usually blocks screwed to the top rail to prevent the doors being lifted out. You might have to remove any limit stops and covers first to gain access - maybe even handles, etc.
f.y.i - no blocks, but had to remove a 'footplate' from the bottom of the door to remove a (rather flimsy) L shaped bracket which prevented the door being lifted out
f.y.i. - suite still doesn't fit, how are you on removing windows ?
Think I'd do some measuring first. ;-)
If they're modern windows, they'll have all sorts of gunge sealing them in, so probably a real pain to remove and replace without damage.
Can't the suite be taken apart?
