    Hi,

    I have two 165 degree hinges on a kitchen door.

    Broken Hinge

    One has started to open so the door hangs from the frame, do I need to replace the hinge or can I tighten something?

    Thanks,

    Just buy some new ones if one has gone then more will follow perhaps change pairs on the same door.

    First one I found on Amazon

    However they are adjustable. Forward and back on the part that connects to the cabinet then there is a screw which can adjust for the door dropping along with the gap between doors.

    Wake me up when it's all over.

    Thanks for the reply.

    I tried to tighten the screw but no joy.

    I will head over to Screwfix tomorrow to get a replacement!

    I asked at a local kitchen installer place where i could get one and they gave me a couple for free :)

    They go through loads of them.
