That's not true. My first post laid out the problem with dealing with that size of project. The tooling, workspace, clamping all need to be bigger than the usual portable setups. It's not the kind of thing you want to attempt outside of a workshop because of the scale.
A skilled professional with portable setup would still find it very hard to do in situ.
I might be showing a bit of temper because it's fairly typical for a small group of otherwise successful people to think they can manage any job and anyone who tells them they can't or shouldn't doesn't understand them. In this case my advice has been you shouldn't take the job on. There is however a certain amount of bile now that it's been seen to be not helping enough. Have a read of this thread and see if there's another time I've told someone 'that's a bit too big for you to take on'. If you think it's not that big a job, lay it out step by step yourself .
However, the proof of the pudding is in the eating. I will be suitably impressed if these doors get made by Dammit.
