Instructions
Opening the gap: simply slide the tool over the hinge and rotate towards the centre of the door to pull the door towards the hinges. The gauge can then be used to check door gaps.
Raising the door: the door height can be easily adjusted using the crowbar. Simply wedge the bar under the door and apply downwards pressure on the tool.
Closing the gap: slide the 8mm hex key in between the hinges and close the door. This spreads the hinges and pushes the door towards the latch.
Door Closers: both the multi head Allen key and flat head key can be used to adjust the multiple functions of a door closer.
Slanted door: in this instance both the hinge tool and hex key can be used to adjust the door.
Fastening: the multi head hex key can be used for a range of fastening applications such as hinge screws or general hardware fixings.
