Can anybody tell me wot hinge this is. And how to adjust please. I flipped the cap off it's not an Allan key or hex key inside. But I've found a small socket the fits. I think I need to close the gap on the hinge side top right and middle, in the hope this will lift the bottom, that's catching the frame. Thank you
 
Thanks mate after using the search button, found one of your previous answers to a similar thread. So I watched both vids. The door at my partners house, so won't get there till the weekend. Does winding from the bottom lift it up. As the same fitting on each hinge is top and bottom. Many thanks for your valuable time and assistance.
 
Just a few more pics
