Hi folks

We have the below hinges fitted to doors on a property in Spain - do these hinges look adjustable to you as the doors seem to have dropped but there's no sign the hinges have moved where they're attached to the door or frame?

May just need heel and toeing, prone to movement especially on hot weather .

The doors still seem square as far as I can tell - there's a consistent gap at the top from side to side, I think I found the hinges - it seems like they clamp to the aluminium extrusion so I think they must have slipped down a bit!

Can you turn the hinge pin from underneath with an Allen key, some pins are cranked and turning them 360° will see the door move left/right and in/out

If not then can the door be lifted up off the hinges, again the pin can be cranked but is seated in an hexagonal hole and can't be turned but needs removing and turning around till you reach your desired position

If the door has dropped and is catching along the threshold or at the top then the top hinge needs to pull the door to it and the bottom needs the door pushing away
