How EZ Shim Hinge Shims Work

Many installers use pieces of cardboard to align doors, but these materials compress, causing doors to sag, stick, or misalign over time. EZ Shim Hinge Shims are precision-engineered to fit neatly behind the hinge plate, maintaining alignment without compression or wear.

For larger gaps, our hinge shims fold into a Z-pattern, creating a triple-thick shim for added support. Their slightly wedge-shaped design allows precise control during installation, ensuring a smooth, hassle-free fix.

Step 1

Identify the Problem – If the door rubs at the top and has a wide gap at the bottom, it likely needs hinge shims for correction.

Step 2

Select the Right Shim – One Quick Align Hinge Shim moves the hinge pin 1/16”. For larger gaps, fold three shims into a Z-shape.

Step 3

Loosen the Screws – Open the door and loosen the screws 1.5 turns to allow space for the shim. Gently pry the hinge plate away from the door on millwork.

Step 4

Insert the Shim – With the screws loosened, slide the EZ Shim Hinge Shim behind the hinge plate.

Step 5

Re-Tighten the Screws – Swing the door open to access the screws and tighten them securely.

Step 6

Check Alignment – Test the door’s movement. If needed, repeat the process for further adjustments.
