Remove glass from double pane sliding doors?

I've found a TON of useful advice on this site so I'm hoping someone out there will have some input on this one b/c I haven't found anything anywhere else...

I have 2 double paned sliding glass doors that I want to get the glass out of. I know they are sealed w/ gas btwn and breaking the seal ruins them, etc. I got 3 single panes of glass and 2 double paned doors from the local restore for cheap. What I need from them is 7 panes of glass (4 from the 2 doors + the 3 singles) to use as glazing for a greenhouse. One of the doors is wood, the other aluminum. I have removed a couple screws but otherwise cannot figure out how to get the frames apart. I have seen some advice on windows but these doors don't match anything I've found and I cannot figure out how to disassemble them and save the glass. Any advice?

Thanks in advance!
