Hanging Doors
- Thread starter huggis
- Start date
usual cause for doors mooving is badly allighned hinges ,gravity,air movement
if the doors groan and barks the hinges are out off line
i suspect the door will finnish up in the origional position it was hung[right angles to the wall] as thats the only position the hinges aren't under tension
take a strait edge between the knuckles[pivot point sticking out] they should be parralel if the arnt the door will find the point of least strain
