Ways to Help Fix the Problem
Many people may run into trouble when a wooden door sags. Most often, this happens with interior doors. When the door is made of real wood, it has a strong weight. At the time of frequent opening, it begins to sag on the hinges. This leads to poor closing of the door, and the formation of scratches on the floor.
The most popular door sag problem is hinges. Therefore, there are several ways to solve the problem.
1. The way. It is necessary to check the fasteners (screws), which are screwed to the base of the door frame through the canopy. Using a screwdriver, you need to check how the fasteners behave:
- you need to unscrew the screws from the hinges, and set the door aside;
- pay attention to how the screws were twisted from the base. If this happened easily, it is worth replacing self-tapping screws with a large diameter;
-stoit to attach particular importance to the holes that formed after the old fasteners. It is necessary to pour PVA glue into these holes, and fill it with matches. It is necessary to wait 24 hours for complete hardening. This function allows you to screw the fasteners as tight as possible back at the time of installation.
After the work done, you can proceed to install the door. Screw the screws into the old holes, and enjoy the quality of the work done. Another problem that makes the door sag. The door frame is made by the factory not of wood, but of pressed shavings. Most often, these are the boxes that already sell painted.
2. Method. Door frames made of chip material require special attention. It is necessary to fix not three canopies to them, but three.
- it is necessary to close the sagging door, and to hammer two wooden wedges from below. It is worth paying attention to one moment. It is forbidden to drive wedges so that the upper part of the door rests in a box. It is important to leave a 5mm gap.
-When the wedges are clogged, you need to make marks on the door and box. The beginning of the first mark must be made below the upper canopy by 10 cm. This will be the top of the extra awning. The second mark is correspondingly lower, taking into account the size of the new canopy.
-Now you can remove the wedges, and remove the door from the hinges. Install an additional canopy in the place where the marks are drawn. After that, you can install the door back, and use it for its intended purpose.
