1. Prepare tools
You need to prepare tools such as a Phillips screwdriver, Allen wrench (usually 2.5-3mm), pencil, level. A recent popular video shows that using an electric screwdriver can increase efficiency by 50%, but you need to pay attention to torque control.
2. Height adjustment
Position the vertical adjustment screw on the hinge (usually located at the end of the hinge arm) and turn it clockwise to raise the door leaf and counterclockwise to lower it. Each rotation changes the position of the door leaf by approximately 1.5mm. It is recommended to test after fine-tuning 1/4 turn each time.
3. Depth adjustment
| Adjust direction | Screw position | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Move indoors | Inner adjustment screw | The door gap increases by 0.5-1mm/turn |
| Move outside | Outside adjustment screw | The door gap is reduced by 0.3-0.8mm/turn |
4. Horizontal adjustment
Use a level to check the verticality of the door frame. If the deviation exceeds 2mm, adjust the lateral screws of the middle hinge. The latest user feedback shows that adjusting the top hinge first has the best effect, with a success rate of 85%.
4. Reference for adjusting parameters of different materials
| Door panel material | Recommended torque value | Maximum adjustment range | Things to note |

| density board | 1.2-1.5N·m | ±3mm | Avoid repeated adjustments |
| solid wood | 1.8-2.2N·m | ±5mm | Pay attention to moisture-proof treatment |
| glass | 0.8-1.0N·m | ±2mm | Use special hinges |
5. Answers to popular questions
Q: Why is there still abnormal sound after adjustment?

According to a summary of popular discussions on the Internet, it is recommended to check the hinge screw torque every three months and use a torque wrench to maintain a tightness of 1.5N·m. Before the rainy season, you can apply anti-rust wax on the screw holes. This is the most popular maintenance tip recently.
Through the above structured data and methods, you can quickly locate and adjust solutions based on specific problems. Remember to be patient when adjusting, and test the effect after each fine-tuning to achieve optimal use.
