Sliding Folding Door Hinge Replacement
ID: 142251
Description: Screws come loose and hinges get old and rusty,...
Steps:
- Using the Phillips #2 screwdriver, remove any remaining old screws and hinges that you want to replace.
- Counterclockwise will remove the screws.
- Screws come loose when the holes become too large for the screws. If necessary, drill new holes into the door.
- In this case, the top two holes were no longer usable, so we created more underneath the bottom holes.
- One by one, use the screwdriver to place the new screws.
- The screws shouldn't be too tight. Be sure that the hinge is loose enough to rotate while placing the other screws.
- Tighten all screws best you can with the hand held screwdriver.
- The new hinge and screws should be in place now. If you would like, you can patch up the old holes and paint over them.
