Any clues as to how best to do this in situ?

I would have thought that something involving a router (rather than an
angle grinder!g) might be appropriate - but what would be the best
way to control the width of cut? Maybe a bearing-guided cutter running
against a temporary batten or somesuch? However, a router wouldn't get
very close to the corners. How should these be tackled?

TIA.


Just lever the timber strip off, take it from there.

There ain't a strip! The rebate is cut into the frame - with the
non-door side being thicker than the door side.
