"It’s not ideal with out taking them out and blocking it up on the outside if you leave the doors there it won’t look the best and you could end up having a cold spot"

Just remove the doors/frames, fix batons to board to then plaster. 👌"

"You can do it from inside but you have to remember to brick up the exterior as you will get cold spots and won't look good if its only from inside. Except temporary block."
