Fixing an internal door that swings open by itself
One of my internal doors slowly swings fully open unless it's latched
closed. None of the other identical doors do this so I think it's something to do with how it's hung, but I can't find any obvious problems. It's a solid hardwood door (so pretty heavy) hung on two brass hinges. A spirit level shows that the door frame on the hinge side is vertical, and the hinge side of the door is vertical as well. A plumb bob made from a nut&bolt on a piece of string shows that the two hinges are in line vertically. Any ideas on what could be causing this? |
