Do I try to remove the doors on the 100-4 at the post with the allen screws or do I try to take the phillips screws loose on the door side. Both options seem difficult due to rust and years of just being on there. The angle to reach the phillips screws is daunting. An off-set tool?
 
Well, the real question is why are you taking the doors off??
 
Paint. Took the strap loose, soaked the allen screws at the post w/penetrating oil and dogged the pass door off. Took an hour. One more to go.

Sure there are many inexpensive tools out there that have snap in offset screwdriver bits like a socket wrench.

However, I think it is preferred to remove the hinge " at the post" Fwiw--Keoke
