    I am trying to fix a squeaky hinge on an internal door of a house. The web
    pages I have found on this topic (e.g.
    <http://www.popularmechanics.com/home/interior-projects/how-to/a3777/4293917/>)
    say one should begin by removing the pin.

    This I've tried and failed. It doesn't seem to be possible. See the
    attached photo.

    Should I just spray some lubricating oil at the top and sides and hope it
    makes its way to the surfaces that need lubrication?

    Drip some 3-in-one oil down the side and move the door back and forth.
