No, you really weren't that far off. The Elves of Eregion did get along with the Dwarves of Moria, very well, and that's why they made the doors. It's probably also why the Door has the curvy Tengwar script rather than the runic Cirth. (If anyone doesn't know what I'm talking about, the letters on the Ring are Tengwar. The map-letters from Hobbit are Cirth. Cirth is easy to translate to English.)
