I've often thought it odd the way some of the internal doors are hinged to interfere with each other. We saw one trailer where the bedroom door opened to block the ingress/egress door, so if you needed to get out in a hurry and were in the bedroom you'd have to get that bedroom door closed before you could get to the door leading you outside. Crazy!

Have you considered a regular hollow door and just cut a filler block to replace the lower or upper header block you'd eliminate with your trim modification? I would think the weight savings are considerable.

Please post photos of your project when you are done.
