Hello

A very heavy wooden door, must weight more than me easily, so say 130kg minimum , anyway has three hinges on it.

Door I'd guess c50 plus years old.

I changed the hinges for ones with same what looked like size, same holes, all fine, but door is now c2mm closer to the lock side, so harder to close as really tight fit now.

The hinges had a larger barrel in the middle I bought.

This might be obvious but what type do I pick to swap them to ones not doing this? Stupidly threw away old hinges as the looked identical , clearly not.
