I've used the toothpick trick a number of times. Another trick that works for me is one or two business cards in behind the hinge to 'bring it out' from the door jamb. I loved the 'bend the hinge trick' and will be using that as well. Thanks for the great video!

Depends on wall sometimes wall left right are not level so if you install door sometimes not fit side by side because level is not accurate

Specially if the wall is concrete always make problem is not right level

Thanks my friend, the toothpick trick work marvelously. I was about to replace the hinge.

Toothpicks method fixed my sagging door after 8 years!!! Thank you!!! Toothpick? Who knew right??

Good tip

That is cheating!

I was thinking the same thing instead of that "trial and error" method.

Yep exactly my thought....

Great one this helped me a lot!

That’s awesome Russell! Glad to help:)

Same since last night

Im curious. What did you try first?

Russell, new hinges are always a good thing.

@@johnthree1611 I was wondering that too! 🤣🤷

You mean, "retired". I found they were wear and tear. Once that happens, you have to replace them. Fixing is not a good solution. The problem will come back. Those are only a few bucks to replace. I rather change all of them. I replace them with the better brand with the bearings. They will last for 20 years. And, make sure you lubricate them with lithium grease once in a year.

That is rad! Glad the tip worked🍻

@@TheFunnyCarpenter Thanks for the tips... I have different issues with each of my doors...I had a contractor do some structural work and afterward none of the doors upstairs close, but one when closed you get stuck in the room--its a bathroom and I guess when you shower the door swells and you get stuck inside, we've planed the door and it still is fickle. One bedroom door the top sits too far inside the room and the bottom is snug on the stop trim piece, another door is reverse that and the bottom of the door is gapped and the top rubs the stop trim piece, the bedroom with double doors you actually now have to lift the main swinging door to meet the strike plate on the other door. How do you fix the doors when it is 'off' vertically than horizontally (as in my case where the hinges wont fix the door being wracked

Dealing with the same thing and now we here lol 😆

When I bought my house they must have pulled the doors to paint and re-install. Latches are falling off, door won’t shut, everything is painted over, it’s a mess. Looking fwd to trying these tips.

I’m sorry to hear about you husband Jennifer. I’m glad you’re finding the videos helpful- thanks for supporting the channel!

It’s a good one for sure- hope it can come in handy!

It’s the only way.

Dude you are loaded😂😂😂

if only it were that inexpensive😂

Unnecessary

😂now you got some new materials to whisper...

Good to hear Steven🍻

I guess that's ok, but seems like too much trouble and possible problems. The hinge plate would not be secure, it would be making contact only on the screw head, seems like that could wobble and possibly creak, and any wobble would tend to work loose the three plate screws. Over time your shimming screw might move and the door would sag again. Shims are available at your local hardware store, isn't that a better method?

I use golf tees. They fit in my toolbox and pouch a little easier.

A bag of 100 10” wood skewers is like a buck at Walmart

@@dan4091 Very true. Sometimes you have a hole larger than a BBQ skewer, however.

I have used that since i started reno's at 24.works very well.

Good luck Brian!

Step 3 does not work for me. The hinge is too flush and frame prevents me from adjustment with wrench

@@beartug Try hitting it with a hammer. I'm not joking.

Thanks mate. I try to get to the point but do have a bit of fluff in there just for fun.

​@@TheFunnyCarpenter I am talking about the guys who say How to .... And the first 6 to 7 minutes of their videos is them talking about their channels, anecdotes, products they have used, sponsors, and don't forget the annoying music. I can't stand those type of videos. Joking here and there and making it fun like you did is different from what this other people do. Sometimes they are showing you and they interrupt the fixing part to talk about something. Your video was fun, straight to the point and best of all. it works. Great Job.

Fantastic! Im glad the tips worked for you:)

@@TheFunnyCarpenter I watched alot of differant DYI because I do repairs myself , found your videos finally && your NOT a HACK!!!! WOOHOOO!!!

Great point

Or remove one leaf and chisel out 1/16 or 1/18 and that would work.

Repent to Jesus Christ “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.” ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭6:5‬ ‭NIV‬‬

@@jesusislord6545 Quite right, straigtning doors is a sin. In fact it was on the original draft of the 10 commandments "Thou shalt not alter a hung door".

Thanks for checking out the video

😂

Thanks for sharing Tom- it’s great the tips were helpful!

The fact that you have stared at your bedroom door at all, let alone five years, seems to be your principle problem. Let's focus on that first.

Thanks Ricky

For real. That last one was new for me.

Randooooom

Arborite shims r the best! Perfect 1/32”.

Almost all the screws on my bathroom door turn and turn too. Somebody said if that happens that you need longer screws because your screws are stripped. But how can they be stripped if they're only going into wood? I'll try the toothpick/wood method first.

No need to release the bottom hinge. Just pack the gap at the top with cardboard until it is in the correct position, then bend the hinge to fit.

@@jeremyashford2145 I don't see how that would help. Packing the gap at the top would make the gap up there bigger. But for bending the loops you want the gap smaller. When I was thinking of shinning the door it wasn't at the hinge side. I was thinking shim under the handle side to bring the top hinge corner closer to the jam. Which is what you need.

@@brandonb417 pack the top left closing jamb side and you don't need to bend down once.

Don't even need to shim anymore. They make these little bags that look like they have blood pressure cuff air squeeze thingies... I know, I'm getting very technical now! Anyway, it's a very strong bag, about 6 inches big, and you squeeze the thing and inflates the bag, which lifts the door up to the precise height you want. Then when you're done, you release the air and remove the bag. It holds like 300 pounds. Im gonna go in my garage later, find mine, get the name for you EDIT: it's called the "Rhino Air Wedge" and they are about $13 on Amazon. I have one, and I use it for all kinds of things. They're great! They sell them in home Depot (at least they do in my local home Depot) but they're cheaper on Amazon. And Amazon has kits of various sizes, which home Depot does not

Or just don’t bother shimming and do it how he did it by eye balling. If it looks good it most likely is good.

Thanks Matt

Thanks buddy!

What is the "pool cue" method?

Cheers🍻

Then maybe you should just clean toilets

@@gregrupar135 Mean people suck.

I think you meant "Grassy as$ muchacho."

Best wishes!

Living in Houston, it's either hot, dam hot, or sweltering. Humidity ranges from "dripping" to "drenching." Everything is always shifting.

My dad was a plumber and he would drill it into my head how to properly use a crescent wrench too!

I cant bend them to save my life.

It was my impression that in this case he turned it that way to get better leverage for bending the hinge. If he had used it the "correct way" (and I agree with you on that) he wouldn't have had as much control or leverage to bend the hinge.

Not arguing, but, like the reply above, I’ve always found the crescent moon shape allows me to get the most leverage because the moon rolls along the surface. Why is the moon side supposed to be the driving force?

@@ChrishBlake because the driving force against the screw on the wrench will, after repeated uses, stretch the metal. It makes the wrench "sloppy" and more likley to slip when extreme force is applied. The screw side is meant as a guide/holder. The best example I can give is using channel lock pliers in reverse. The force will try to open your hand instead of clamping down on the piece you're working on.

😂Macgyver is a verb

I blame the parent. Hahaha

The last one did the trick on my front door. Would have saved me some time if i started with it but after years of a sticky front door I'm pretty glad it worked. also kicking myself i didn't do it sooner

@@Art-uz3fk How was the door sticking?

Damn , what a hack way... smh....

@@mariskaaryan6925 no.. he's right. If you don't put something between the strike side of the door and the jamb, you can easily pull the hinge screws out of the door enough to strip the holes.............

A use shims to lift the door until it latches. The bend loops in correct place.

Thank you, though my doors were rubbing due to expanding! Fixed 3 doors in 5 minutes. Thank you 😊

Holster up that Makita drill and you’re right there big man!
