A angle grinder with a metal cut-off wheel can easily cut off a metal hinge. Use eye protection and be prepared for sparks.
Its when a door wont close without a little pushing, because the hinge has been cut to deep into the door frame . lots of love steve .
yes but you will need a blade for stone :)
Here's the better-than-factory $15 fix. Tools and supplies you'll need to fix the console hinge: dremel tool or angle grinder, drill, rivet gun, rivets, piano hinge. Take the dremel cutoff wheel (or grinder) and cut out the broken plastic ramp-shaped hinges on the bottom part of the console. Get a small piano hinge ($9 at Lowe's) and cut to length, about 9 inches. Line everything up and drill holes into the console and the lid, where the old hinge used to be Rivet everything together and it will look sharp and be stronger than new!
If they are beyond repair, I cut them off with a thin metal cutting disc in an angle grinder.
The pin will probably have to have the bottom end that is flared out cut off or drilled out. The pin can then be tapped out. This is easier if the hinge has been removed but then the door will have to be blocked up into place while the hinge is off.
I cut it with an abrasive fibre cutting disc on my angle grinder. I also cut all pipes this way, very fast and a clean cut.
The old door hinge pins have to be cut out with a torch on a 1989 F-150. Then, new hinge pins can be welded into place. This part might be available at an automotive salvage yard for a fraction of the cost of new hinges.
Add shims behind the hinges. Either between the door and the hinge or hinge and frame. Folded paper works as well as anything.
One part of a door frame is the molding, which is the area cut out to hold the door. The frame is the wood or steel placed inside the molding to bolster the strength of the door. The casing is the part of the door inside the frame that insulates. The hinge holds the door on and the contact plate is the area cut out to hold the bolt part of the lock.

# get the correct door for the opening # Judge the clearance you need under the door to clear carpet or tiles if they are there. # There are two sides to a door if its a hollow door the lock side is marked and it has a block inside of it to hold the locking mechanism. unless its been taken of this should be marked on the door. # place the lock side of the door on the ground and mark the door edge 200mm from the top and then the same from the bottom. # place the hinge on the middle of the door side of the mark and mark around the hinge on both the top and the bottom and center if required.and cut out the depth of the material the hinge is made of inside the lines # now you have to make corresponding checkouts in the door jamb only start the first check out 2mm further down IE 202mm from the top of the door jamb then cut out the rest of the check outs. # hold the door in place and screw in the hinges.
Hi, If your question is how to remove the door, before starting make sure you have all three replacement hinge pins first it is best not to try and reuse the the existing ones and one of them will be cut so it will not be usable. 1. remove the flexible rubber sleeve from the truck body by pulling it out of the hole; 2. next pull the wires out the hole to disconnect them from the from each other but before doing so tie a sring around them that is about 3 feet long, this make it easier if the connections fall back into the hole to pull thme out with out needing to remove the pnel behind them, place some tape on the sleeve or mark the side that came out of hole; 3. now with a metal grinder grind cut the center pin in half, be cafeful as the sping will pop out when the pin is cut, next with a center punch drive the bottom half out then do the top; 4. next with make sure you have the door secured either with a door holding tool, strong helper or some type of bracing; 5. next slowly knock out the top hinge pin as you do so notice the position of the hinge pin sleeves so you can replace them in the same direction which are on the door side bracket; 6. repeat the same for the bottom hinge pin; 7. pull the door straight out. To replace door, 1. remove the old hinge pin sleeves if they had not fallen off and replace in the same direction they were removed, do not reuse the old sleeves! 2. install the spring hinge pin the one that has the swivel head, use the locking pin clip to hold the pin in place otherwise it will fall out after the door has been open and closed several times; 3. using a large nail or small bolt temporary connect bottom hinge, your partner will need to hold door on a slight angle; 4. now install the spring behind the door arm, very carefully push door back into position and install the top hinge pin; 5. now with the door bottom being pushed in remove the nail or small bolt and install the bottom hinge pin; 6. reconnect the wires and replace the wire sleeve into the wire hole. This should complete the job, good luck! JQ
