Modifying internal doors

[mikeiow]

We have 5 internal doors with 10 glazed panes (2 x double, 1 x single)
This kind of thing - https://www.directdoors.com/doors/sa-10-pane-mould...

We would like to replace them with a single pane doors, & I am wondering whether I would be able to remove the glass, cut the panel pieces (leaving the frame), then add some beading and safety glass to make one large panel. Turn them into more like https://www.directdoors.com/doors/pattern-20-mahog...

Might be a bit fiddly, & no doubt the glass isn't cheap, but at least we would know the doors would easily fit without getting a chippy in to do the work (doors don't look like standard sizes!)

Anyone think that would work? I can't imagine the middle framing pieces in the 10-pane ones being in any way structural!

cheers

Thx for the suggestions: I know the panes are individual - when we first moved in (19 years ago!) our then-toddler cracked his head on one and we discovered it splintered - wasn't safety glass.....luckily it was just under 10 years old & once we found which builder had bought the builder who bought the original builder, NHBC were on it like a shot replacing all of them!

I may try to just get someone in to replace 'em all...but the sizes weren't standard (from what we could see), so it sounded more of a faff than just to have a go at mildly butchering these....I'm okay with a jigsaw and some beading, less precise with a chisel ;-)
Cheers

Have you actually measured the doors to see if they are a standard size? If they are then surely easier to just replace them?

The two double doors are 4' wide, about 77.5" high.....online looks like 46" is more standard, but I may do more investigating. The single is 2' 6", ought to be easy to sort.

Thanks for all the advice & comments!
