My door hinges sqeek really bad. I've tried different stuff, always back in
a week or so. I don't want to use wd-40 all the time, the spray goes on the
door and trim and just doesn't last.
Any and all suggestions welcome.

TIA

If there are 3 hinges, that can be an indication that the door is
mounted improperly and the hinges are out of line. Nothing to do but
pull the nails along that side of the frame and reshim the door.

Or shim the hinges with pieces of cardboard until they line up.
