Removing paint from metal door frames....

It's time! I just can't paint over them anymore. I am re-doing my main bathroom. We're having someone come in and re-grout the walls and floor and caulk, and then I am going to re-paint the bathroom (good bye pepto bismol pink!)... But I need to work on the door frame, which probably has 20 layers of paint on it. Where do I begin? Is there something "environmentally friendly" that will strip it off? I have 2 kids and want to do it the quickest and least harmful way! I have 2 other bathrooms and showers in the house, so if I can't use that bathroom doorway for a few days, it's ok as well. Thanks!

Patience, a heat gun, and a scraper.
Good luck !
