Hinge-side door damage
Check where movement originates
The hinge may be loose in the leaf, loose in the frame, bent, worn or incorrectly positioned. Each cause needs a different repair.
Weight matters
Heavy solid, glazed or oversized doors place more load on hinges and fixings. A repair must suit the door weight and available substrate.
Alignment after repair
Restoring the fixing is only part of the job; clearances, latch alignment and closing action should be checked afterwards.
