The gap problem can be fixed!

As others have reported there is excessive clearance between the frame hinge and the door hinge in the closed position. The good news is that there is an easy fix to the problem. Place the hinge in the fully open position in a vise and tighten as shown. The hinge flexes at the hinge to allow it to close much tighter in the closed position. I did this several times until I reduced the distance between the hinges to about 1/8 inch. This requires some strength, so it may not work with a light vise. (I removed a star out of necessity. The hinges were otherwise perfect. The black finish looks nice and they're sturdy. The pins look like they could be removed, so the hinges can be reversed to fit both left and as well as right hand drive use.and on the right hand doors 24 black screws Hinges of various lengths are also included.Black hinges like this are hard to find and can cost around $50 for three.
