If the hinge has a bottom cap, and you have to risk damaging the trim, you might as well remove the bottom cap and leave it off for the next time. Perhaps not as aesthetically appealing, but I'd prefer the convenience over the looks. Also, in place of this tool or a nail you can use an old Allen wrench to pop the pin out. This allows you to tap with your hammer farther away from the trim.
In my situation I don't think the Mrs would go for leaving the bottom caps off. At about 7:28 I do use an old Ikea Allen wrench, which like you mentioned lets you hammer away from the trim. Thank you for sharing your tips.
I would occasionally post a review on something I had purchased and one day I got an invite. I don't really know what it took to get on their radar. Sorry there is not more to reveal.
If you ever built squeak free door hinge has a non-rising removable pin this is the stupidest thing I've ever seen and if I had my way I would never buy another ever built door hinge why make something more difficult than it needs to be. Deeply disappointed with this product I don't have time to waste on something and there's no clear instructions on how to fix the problem I just needed a simple hinge to hang the door and you guys make everything more difficult for no blanking reason
I'm with you bro. I just bought some of the Everbilt squeak free door hinges only to discover this mega idiocracy. Way to make a simple product needlessly complicated.

I wrap tape on the bottom cap, then vise grips to remove it. Works fine
MrBrian, thank you for sharing another solution.
How many reviews did you do to become an HP Seed Member ? Just curious 😂

In a race to makes things cheaper they don't always turn out better. Thank you for sharing.

Long video. Didn’t work on silent hinge
Sorry about the length, I still find a screw driver and nail are quicker. Thanks for watching.
