    Another happy customer. I did the hinge and vise grip solution and that troublesome door is now closing smoothly. Thanks a lot.

    I really enjoyed how very clear and concise way you explained everything from how the problem presents itself , to how you gave the solution in detail plainly describing the job in how to complete it in a short time. You also how you included descriptions of all the parts and the tools needed as well as troubleshooting the position just helps even further for those who maybe don't get it just right the first time. Thanks for excellent explanation, i just know that you helped others with your kind delivery and in my opinion proper execution of providing all the information one needs in this how to video, it's greatly appreciated!

    very timely- I just installed 8 doors and a few of them I can't adjust with shims---so now I know what to do. Thank you

    Great video, thanks! Any ideas if it is possible to bend a brass hinge the same way? I am struggling to bend them!

    Thanks for the video. The issue with my door is that it is too high and scrapping the top. So when I remove the pin, it falls into place, but I have an issue bending the hinges. I need to bend the hinges away from the wall. Any tips will be appreciated. Thank you.

      can u send photos of the door closed & what the top, bottom & side gaps look like?
      And also send close up photos of the door-hinge side.

    Any tips for brand new hinges that you don't want to damage the finish?

      no i don't as availability depends on country you are in, size & style to match existing hinge. Perhaps temporarily remove 1 existing hinge, & support the door weight. mark out a template of the hinge shape, size & holes. Use vernier caliper to measure thickness of hinge plate. Then use that to source identical hinge of better quality.

    What if there are 3 hinges on the door. How do you know which hinge to bend? Top? Middle? Bottom?

    • @DIYhabitat
      @DIYhabitat  ปีที่แล้ว

      for any sag, the top hinge has the greatest change effect.

      @@DIYhabitat huh I had no idea. That’s strange considering datamining is basically google’s whole thing. The more you know. Anyway. I took all the hinges off all my doors to paint the hardware and mixed it all up and now nothing closes. Wish me luck!
