I think the time has come for me to do this to my rear UPVC doors as, like you, they are completely out of adjustment. Thanks for making this video; I found it extremely helpful and informative.

Excellent and very well done young man...

For the adjustment section of the flag hinges alone - much appreciated!

No not the most exciting project I agree .....but really helpful to me and anyone changing UPVC door hinges, many thanks for taking the time to record it all.

Just DIY tip when offering up your door for marking, stick packets in the rebate of the door, then put your door in place,.Then mark the position of the hinges. Afterwards you can remove the packers

Thanks, a lot. No idea how to take the door off/adjust the hinge. Problem sorted 👍

Brilliant. your no nonsense approach is an inspiration.

I have recently done this on my rear patio doors and managed to use a over of timber and a car jack to level the door and replace the hinges whilst in situ. I'm giving to do the front uPVC for this weekend with the same technique, fingers crossed 😃🤞👍

Can I just say what a great video, well explained too. The wind caught our door an broke the plastic on the side where the hinges fasten . So been looking to find out how I can fix it without costing the earth

First class presentation. Will help me replace hinges on an old style upvc door at my daughter's place.

Spot on! You have just done exactly what I will be doing.

After much research and fiddling, I think I have the same problem as you, so will be trying this. Thanks for the video, Nick.

Well done nick, always a tricky job UPVC door hinges great video👍👍👍

An excellent video for a DIYer to follow..thank you!

Great vid maybe hinges on door could have been drilled and screwed when it was perfectly in place rather than marking and removing then hanging back on again. Love this vid 👍👍

Great job Nick, this is my next DIY project so should prove really useful.

Extremely well done and useful video. Best one in my opinion. Very real and practical.

Very good

Superb. I opened up the hinges on my patio doors that require adjustment and found that I cannot adjust them left or right at all as the hinges have been incorrectly fitted in the first place - all four adjustment holes have large screws directly into the doors!! I will try to correct them. Thanks for the excellent tutorial.

Best video I seen for this type of project excellent 👌

Brilliant - experiencing the same problem - just need a hand lifting the door out!

Good job Nick very impressive.

Beautiful job! Very satisfying to repair, replace, renew! Can I borrow your camera man to help me do my door!? 😁

Well done 👏

Super video loved it

Excellent video

Thanks - very helpful !

Brilliant !

Hi, great video and a great job with the door 😃 Nick, you might have just saved me from utter despair at what to do with my 20+ year old upvc french doors with old style rebatted butt hinges that ave dropped and the hinges have no vertical adjustment (so similar to your originals but with a 'leaf' that sits on the internal rebate of the door). I've had the local repair chap out, we've changed the broken hinges but I'm still stuck with a 5mm gap on one door. So I'm looking into if I can replace the old hinges with a better option. Hopefully to get a few more years out of the doors before I have to swap them out. Some questions... 1) Since fitting have the hinges held true and kept the door in alignment, besides minor adjustment? 2) Does the flag part of the hinges come in different lengths, if so how did you ascertain the correct size? 3) I take it you used the packers in the door frame to ensure the door was sitting square in the frame before marking where to drill the fixings for the flag parts of the hinges? Many thanks

Nice work. Good video very useful.

Hi Nick, thx for the video, I have a question pls: My (vague) understanding of flag hinges is that they are to be used with inward opening doors, as they could be too easy to unmount from the outside... But I see that you fit flag hinges on an outward opening door. Would you say that this installation is "not-so-skilled-burglar proof", unlike what I thought ???

Thanykyou so much very easy guide

you ask for a local double glazing to fix front door hinge and they will tell you change the whole thing for money you dont have. Hardly any honest tradesmen left nowadays.

I have a question about a door that I have that has different types of interior hinges and wonder if the door can be taken off and the hinges heightened....

Top Man !

Cant see any link relating to the hinges

I can't even open the door to get to the hinges

Hi Nick, thank you for the video. Really useful. Please can I ask which Scapa tape you used?

Hi NIck. Thanks for video. Can I ask if you've had to repeatedly readjust the door like the installer suggested would happen?

Quick Q: when fitted, do these hinges allow you to lift the door off (as they are Flag hinges), as this would be excellent during times of frequent access (thinking of fixing my 'dropped' back doors, so bar-b-q's, etc.)?

what are the best quality flag hinge to use?
