Q: Why does my door squeak when I open it?

• <div><p>Most of the time, a squeaky door is the result of dry hinges, where metal parts rub together without enough lubrication. Dirt, dust, or rust can also build up inside the hinge and add to the friction. Loose screws or slight misalignment can shift things just enough to create that irritating squeaking noise. Worn-out hinges or swelling wood from humidity changes can also be part of the problem on older doors. A good cleaning and proper lubrication usually take care of it, but if the squeak sticks around, it&rsquo;s worth checking for bigger issues with the hinges or alignment. </p></div>

Q: What if my sofa doesn't fit through the door?

• <div><p>If a sofa doesn&rsquo;t fit through the door, try angling it to maneuver it through. You&rsquo;d be surprised at how often this works. Next, remove the legs and cushions and try again. If that doesn&rsquo;t work, consider an alternate entry point like a window or a back door. When all else fails, contact a pro. </p></div>

Q: Is WD-40 a good solution for squeaky door hinges?

• <div><p>WD-40 can be used on squeaky door hinges, but it is generally considered a temporary, short-term solution rather than a long-term fix. While it can silence a squeak in a pinch by breaking down rust and grime, it is not a true lubricant, as it contains only a small amount of lubricating oil that evaporates quickly. Using WD-40 alone may lead to the squeak returning and can attract dirt and dust, potentially causing more wear on the hinge over time. For a more effective and lasting solution, it is recommended to first use WD-40 to clean the hinge, then wipe it clean. Afterward, apply a dedicated lubricant such as silicone spray, white lithium grease, a metal or plastic lubricant, or an oil-based product like petroleum jelly.</p></div>

Q: Can you sand down a door to fit?

• <div><p>You can open up more space between the door and the floor by sanding the bottom of the door, but it will take longer compared to using a hand planer. However, you could use a belt sander, which some believe is even better than a hand planer for planing a door. Also, it could leave a smoother finish on the bottom of the door.</p></div>

Q: Do I put hinges on the door or frame first?

• <div><p>You can attach the hinges to either the door or the frame first, depending on your preference. The order will not affect how the door hangs or the ease of installation. However, we recommend starting with the top hinge over the bottom one for stability, as it&rsquo;s much easier to support the door from below while you install the top hinge. It will also be easier to pull the door outward from the hinges as it hangs from the top than it would be to push the door toward the hinges, as there&rsquo;s less clearance on the lock side.</p></div>
