What a great video!! Thank you so much for sharing your skills. Adding splinters to tighten up loose screw holes is absolutely brilliant! We got a 2-Fer! BONUS! 💖

Your welcome Dawn, Glad I could help

the wood in the hole to tighten up the screws was a great idea, never thought of that, i'll give it a try on my front door, thanks.

Tooth picks plus wood glue works amazing.

Your video is worth the 2 cents you used. All you had to do was bend the top hinge knuckles.

That would have been the correct way to repair it. Plus longer screws and/or refill the holes with wood + glue and reset the screws. Leaving the pennies in there will cause hinge wobble and failure soon. Bad idea.

Brilliant I put one of those shims but this looks way better for adjustments

They make these screws called number 10’s. I have a box just in case I run into an issue with a stripped hole.

Great job. What is the shortest screw that is ok for the door jamb?

Nothing shorter than 1"

This was a good fix. Just my two pennies

Glad you got it fixed for 2 cents

My father calls this 'rolling the hinge' and i use it all time! Can 'roll' the hinge forward or backwards, top and/or bottom and achieve a perfect reveal every time without touching the jamb

Thanks. I thought my lock's strike plate opening was never chiseled out right, when it turns out, the hinges aren't set right, so the door's not hung evenly.

Somehow I missed how the pennies came into play - I heard them mentioned but didn't see them actually used.

@@dustyguy Have you repaired a door that gets swollen in the Summer just in the middle of the jamb/door at the latch area, where the rest of the door doesn’t rub? Metal exterior door. I don’t want to wait until Winter to address it.
