After many years of the door hanging on the hinge, either the door or the hinge will be subjected to gravity. If you remove the screws from the bottom hinge and put a thin shim behind it, it will bring the door back in to alignment. Maybe less than a 1/8-inch shim can solve the problem. Try again!!
