The frames are available from many of the venders here..

I reused the doors. It is a bit time consuming but not hard at all I have some pics of the process. I can post if you like.

1. You will need to disassemble your doors remove all hardware and old framework and carpet.
2. Next you will need to file or grind the door edges a little at a time until the new frames fit.
3. Fit and trim new carpet be sure to cut the carpet around the edges at a 45% angel so the trim will be able to compress all the way down.
4. After you get everything fit flip the door over with trim and carpet and clamp it to you bench with a piece of wood or something long enough to cover one edge at a time, this will allow you to compress the trim and install new screws to hold it on.
