Our 6 year old Anglian front door is starting to catch on the frame above the lock. Checking with a spirit level the frame but not the door is vertical. I guess that I need to adjust the hinges to straighten it up. But each butt hinge has 6 hex nuts to choose from (plus a 7th small one). Can anyone send a link to online instructions or tell me which to adjust please?

If only 6 years old why not contact Anglian and get them to come and adjust it for you? That said a picture would help as Anglian used lots of styles of hinges over the years

The bigger the name the less they give a sh.. I'm sure they would have been happy to sell you a new door though!
Take a photo down the top hole, and also a photo of where it is catching

Ok, notice those 2 round gold in colour circles with a dot on them, put an Allen key it them preferably a T handle type for better leverage and on the top hinge turn them so the hinge pin moves away from the locking side, you might have to creep the pin over with a small turn of both a bit at a time, keep checking the door for clearance and for locking when adjusting
