Tips to Replace Door Hinges

  • Block the swing of the door using a door stopper. Keep the door open so that you could access the hinge easily. Make sure the door is fully stable, otherwise the door might topple on the removal of hinge screws.
  • Before removing the hinge, it is better to measure the new hinge size and edge shape. Make sure your current hinge location is perfect. Ideally, it should be 7 inches from the top and the other one should be 11 inches from the bottom.
  • If it isn’t at the right location you have to make a new hinge location for the perfect functioning of the door.
  • You have to prepare the hinge location on the door and door frame so that the area could be cleaned and polished for the new hinge.
  • If your new hinges are of different sizes, close the earlier screw holes using suitable materials and smoothen the area.
  • Now install the new hinge by properly measuring and marking. Be careful here as little carelessness could cost you time, energy and money. Use your tools like a drill to make holes for screws. Place the hinge on the door frame and door and then bring them both together to pin the hinge.
  • Now remove the stopper and let the door open and close. If doors close properly, your job is done.

If you’re still facing trouble after all that, or prefer to call on a handyman to repair your hinges and other parts of your house, our reliable handyman services are available 7 days a week.
