Hi, I have a door that sticks at the bottom, handle side and does not fully shut against the seal at the base, letting rain in.

The hinges are as attached pix, but I am unsure how to access them to adjust, let alone make the adjustments.

Would be greatful if anyone can advise how to do this.

Many thanks

If the bottom handle side is scraping the bottom it sounds like it needs toe and heeling. There are videos on YouTube showing how to do this but if you have any questions I will be happy to help

Thanks for this, I have looked at the videos, but I was rather hoping it could be adjusted by the hinges adjustments with an allen key, as seen mentioned elsewhere. I am just unsure how to access the hinges and which ones to adjust etc. Any thoughts?

Thanks again

Yes - they seem to be screwed into the edge of the door itself.

There is a cap on the top of the hinge which when removed, seems to show something to adjust with an allen key.
