3.Remove the locking plate as shown.

4.Turn the bushing located underneath the bottom of the hinge using a ½” open end wrench. Turning the bushing to the left (counterclockwise) will raise the door. Turning the bushing right (clockwise) will lower the door.

5.After adjusting, check the doors to make sure they are even at the top and bottom. If the doors are not even, continue to turn the bushing to adjust the door height.

6.Replace the locking plate.

7.Turn the bushing slightly to align the hinge and locking plate screw holes.

8.Replace the door stop screw or screws and tighten.

9.Make a final recheck to make sure the doors are aligned and even.

2.Hold the door open to a position that is less than 90°.

3.Replace the door stop screw or screws in the bottom hinge and tighten.
