Doors needing adjustment after 2mths of use. Why can’t they install things well anymore

[@Lamedvavnik]

They can… you get what you pay for.

Thank you for the video, it was a lifesaver. I followed your method & my door now shuts/opens perfectly with no catching or rubbing! & that's after weeks/months of fiddling, screwing & adjustments with no success...& lots of swearing 😂

[@roscopeco2000]

Great vid!! Can i ask our door has a thumb lock instead of a handle which is a terrible design and stiff to turn. Our these the standard now?

[@IanBrookfield-lb6pn]

When adjusting the hinge upwards like you've done with the bottom hinge, you should also do the same with the rest of the hinges. Otherwise the other hinges will be under pressure and will end up squeaking and eventually will fail

[@amitbagga897]

Thank you, very helpful

[@andybarber225]

It would be good to see a dismantled hinge to understand how it works. Our back door needs periodic re adjustment. Not sure if it is vibration altering the adjustment? Our front door hasn't needed any adjustment but isn't used as much.

Good

Thanks for the video and explanation. Does the same process apply to stable doors? i.e. those which are split top and bottom? Should they be treated as two seperate doors when it comes to adjustments? Thanks in advance.

What's the grub screw for between the 2 pips

[@omarb21]

Thank you so much just leveled my door 🎉

[@stuartbradley4896]

cheers for the advice.

[@MatthewKean-u2s]

I think I have the same hinges on my door. Can you tell me the make and if possible the part number please.

[@cantthinkofagoodun1]

It lifts the whole door ‘slab’ The gap will increase across the bottom evenly. The first method he used basically re - squares the slab in the frame. Stick a spirit level on the frame head and sill , then up the hinge side , see if it is plumb would be a good move as well.

Cheers pal 👍👍

[@jleyd]

When you adjust the Allen key on the underside of the hinge you only did the one, is that enough or are you supposed to do all three? Cheers.

[@brianknowles1727]

Bottom hinge you said anticlockwise but turned clockwise.

[@neilbanks6845]

Screw was upside down-thats why

[@markb6620]

Screw you.

[@thegrumpybusinessman3400]

Didn’t work. Looks like the 3 screws holding door to the wall are loose. How the he’ll do I get to them behind the hinge?

[@Tvwindows]

Please advise us on the make of door you have. Or send a photo to [e-mail]

[@grimslater]

perfect

[@IanBrookfield-lb6pn]

You could do with knowing the difference between clockwise and anti-clockwise lad lol

[@neilbanks6845]

The screw was upside down !! He was correct

[@gdfggggg]

Pips? Thought it was a cap.

[@EXISTENCE1891]

When you say "it lifts the door" its not clear whether you mean the hinge side or the handle side

[@Ineffable1111]

If you mean at the end where he lifts the door at the bottom underneath hinge. The whole door should slightly rise with this adjustment. But we are talking in millimetres.
