Hi all, this door makes a very loud creak/popping sound when opening it. I've tried to pack out the bottom hinge a bit but to no avail...the hinge itself is very rusty and wondering if that would help? Could it be the pin? Thanks all for any advice!

if the door is binding you need to pack hidge.
Use cardboard..
Hard and thick cardboard if you have any.
Cereal box type but thicker.
Looks tight in picture.
Is there a gap handle side that will get smaller when you pack.

Oil hinge.
3 in 1 oil is good. You can buy small bottles of that from Home Bargains.Wilko. The Range ect
Wd 40 will do it but won't last after evaporating. You need a lubricant.
You can also use Vaseline. Rub in. Open and close. Rub more in and repeat
