After repairing the the bottom hinge on my entrance door.
The attachment point on the door was so bad that the bottom of the door was literally flopping around.
The door now is nice and solid with no flopping around at all.
I have noticed that the top of the door has a gap of close to 3/8 inch at the hinge side
and the bottom of the door has only a gap of about 1/16 to 1/8 inch.
The manual says to adjust the door horizontally with shims.
Before I tear into the interior to get at the back of the hinges has anyone done this differently?
