There the same as mine, undo the little locking grub screw on the side then the hex on top and on the bottom adjusts it... you’ll have to do a bit at a time on all the hinges... I have 4 per door..

Yes in the u shaped lounge.

But the answer to most gardening questions is concrete mixer 😉
You could be right, we use our concrete mixer for gardening tasks. Plenty of free horse muck around here, but it tends to stay in lumps for ages, so we pile it into the mixer plus some sand and top soil with a couple of house bricks. 15 minutes later Harrods top dressing.

Sorry OP, what was your question?

Just one thing on this, try and make sure you do the adjusment on them all similar, so as they all take the weight and not just one or 2.
 
Might as well carry on in this vane :giggle: Does anyone know a way to to remove/replace these hinges. Mine have sagged/warped over the years with no adjustment left, so replacement seems to me to be the sensible option. My idea was to replace each of them one by one, leaving the door in place i.e shut but I've fallen at the first hurdle - how to remove the hinge with the door in situ.

Big and white, not sure that is a motorhome. Mine is small and a rather nice metallic dark grey.

Mine was not sitting on the drive today, as it was having its MOT :whistle:

Before you do any adjustments on the hinges, first check the door by measuring the diagonals, if it’s still square. Most of time, 9 out of 10, if the door was ok before, it’s the packers inside that braces the panels. Pop the beads off, lift the door square or higher and put packers on the bottom corner hinge side, and top opposite corner. That will brace and keep the door up. Pop the beads back on.
Hinges do not need adjusted, unless the frame has moved since installation. Many speedy glazers don’t even put packers in, or in the wrong place, and the beads let’s go when expand, then the door drops on its weight.
 
Found out how to do mine on YouTube easy peasy
