Hi there folks! Happy New Year!
I recently moved to a new place and am slowly discovering it’s delights and peculiarities. This house has a pair of butler doors (swing both ways) that have Bommer 7802 Light Duty Horizontal Spring Pivot hinges. They don’t have adjustable springs and they do have a hold open at 85 degrees.
For some reason, one of the doors doesn’t rest in a proper closed position. It swings back and forth and then settles at about 20 degrees open - or slightly ajar. The other side of the butler door settles to a proper closed position after swinging. What do I need to adjust to make it swing to the proper resting position? Is it not plumb bottom to top?
I’d really appreciate your thoughts. Pictures are attached.
Cheers!
