Problem with old swing doors
Victorian house, nice swing doors in hall with Climax hinges. Lefthand door is a little lower than the other one and swings a tiny bit too close to the other door so that they bash against each other rather than pass each other.
The top fitting is hanging down a bit as you can see on the photo. What is the best was to adjust these? I'm hesitant to start dismantling them in case the spring explodes on me! I can't work out what goes on with the pin at the top - it seems loose and moves up and down when I push the edge of the door towards the door frame. The house was built in 1893 - surely these hinges aren't that old? I suspect the doors are though. https://www.dropbox.com/s/1t3xouh99p...29.48.jpg?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/0duim7j53z...30.07.jpg?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/byc6wi58bv...30.29.jpg?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/xxdlnrmizv...30.38.jpg?dl=0 |
