👍 Become a Patron: How to Adjust a uPVC Door? Tweaking a Crooked Door That Drags on the Floor
Locate the adjustment slots on the front side of the hinges. Nearly all types of uPVC doors allow you to make minor adjustments to the door’s positioning via slots on the hinges. With the door closed, check the exposed part of the hinges for small, hexagonal slots. If there aren't any slots, contact the manufacturer for guidance on making adjustments. With some door models, the adjustment slot or slots may be covered by a cap or cover that lifts off. Check your owner’s manual for directions on removing this cap or cover. Your door may have 1, 2, or 3 slots per hinge in order to make vertical, horizontal, and depth adjustments. The number of slots and their location on the hinges vary by manufacturer, so refer to your owner's manual to figure out which slot or slots to adjust. This method of adjustment works best if the bottom of the door on the latch side drags on the floor when you open it, while the hinge side stays clear of the floor.
