How Do You Adjust Wardrobe Door Hinges?
Concealed wardrobe hinges adjust in three directions: the screw nearest the door face moves it sideways, the rear screw sets how close it sits to the carcass, and loosening the mounting plate lets the door slide up or down. Work in quarter turns, closing the door between each one, and always start with the top hinge because it carries the visible upper line. This guide matches each fault to its cure, covering doors that sag at the outer edge, uneven vertical gaps between a pair, and doors that spring back rather than closing flush. It also identifies the problems hinges cannot fix, including an unlevel floor or a racked carcass, and shows the proper five minute repair for a stripped chipboard screw hole. It also explains why a door should be hung and adjusted before handles are fitted, and how to keep a pair of doors reading as a matched set across the front of the wardrobe....
