Judging by the posts of today, maybe it is!
Now its like this. I have a shed door that used to open fine, but now as it
opens it hits the concrete outside. I think the concrete its built on has
heaved at the back end a bit as we are on clay, tipping it off of level.
Other than trying to jack it up a bit more at the front I'm at a loss. Has
anyone else had this sort of problem. I fear it may mean a new shed in the
end as this one is quite old and in need of tlc, so jacking it up is going
to make it tend to fall to bits!
An offset hinge (the type where the hinge barrel is extended away from
the plates by a couple of inches) at the bottom is the solution to
sloping floors. That way the door hangs level when shut, but then rises
at an angle as it opens.
