We've brought these photos to Home Depot and some knowledgeable friends, and so far, no one knows what they are or how to best remove them.

We tried rotating the pins, but they're too small to rotate with a 6mm or 7/32in socket and too large to rotate with a 5mm or 3/16in socket.

There are 3 of these pins on each vertical side of the frame. Anyone know what they are and how best to remove them?

Thank you! After a quick Google, there are some similar looking bolts. That's something I can work with.
