In the past, if a steel door needed a minor adjustment, a hammer was used to whack or bend the door hinge. Hinge Shim by EZ-Shim™ offers a much cleaner and more effective solution to this problem. Quite often, a piece of cardboard (or worse) is used behind the hinge when installing a door or correcting an out of alignment jamb. However, cardstock and cardboard compress, which causes doors to migrate, sag and bind in the jamb. Hinge Shim helps prevent future problems such as the need to plane the door and costly refinishing work.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e15 Count\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eQuick align hinge shims for 4\" hinges\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eRealign door in the jamb without having to take door off its hinges\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eEach shim adjusts door approximately 1\/16\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eCarded blister pack.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eHinge Shim saves time as they are engineered to fit neatly behind the hinge plate, with one of the screws backed out part way, allowing the door to remain in place during installation.
