BMV Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Does anybody know how I go about adjusting the butt hinges on this old UPVC door (pivot up, over the middle hinge)? The door has dropped (I can see daylight through the top!), and lock is v. stiff to operate (when door is closed only). Tried looking at videos online, but they all seem to suggest an Alan key, and their gingers look different to my hinges… thanks in advance, BMV (forum newbie) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markc Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Has the door dropped at the hinges or gone out of square due to glass replacement? If it’s the hinge then it must have worn and easier to replace than try and adjust for a worn pin/socket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 (edited) This should be your vertical adjustment (height) These should be your lateral adjustment (left / right) The top (remove cap) should be your compression adjustment (in/out) Edit: Worth noting, that you may have to release the small grub screw to adjust.
