Grease Hinges - PEP BB nest.sand.hinges

Fixed a squeaky bedroom door with coconut oil.

I greased the squeaky bathroom door that sticks and causes momentary panic whenever guests don't realize they have to really push on the door to get out.

This door has only two hinges. The pin on the bottom hinge is a little loose.





This is where the door sticks. It's pretty worn down.



Here is the grease I used.



I just sprayed it on and the squeaking went away instantly! I didn't even have to remove the pin!







After spraying, some paint from the hinges came off that I had to wipe up.





I used a hammer to get the pin in the bottom hinge down all the way.



I sanded the door frame and the door to reduce the stickage.



After sanding, the door no longer sticks (unless you push down on it while you open it, which I realized I tend to do).

The pantry door has been squeaking for a couple years. I finally did something about it today!
I used white lithium grease.
After greasing the hinges with a toothpick, there was still the tiniest bit of squeaking. So, I checked over the entire door and found that the hinges needed some attention and that the front panel of the door itself was coming apart.
