How to lubricate the creaking door and how?

A creaking door to anyone will get on your nerves, so you want to get rid of the grinding and find what to lubricate the door so as not to creak.

Also consider what to do if the lock does not open well and give advice on the care of the keyhole.

Which doors can open with a creak?

First we will get acquainted with the types of doors. They are subdivided into species depending on the location, the matter from which they are made and the opening mechanism.

According to the first criterion, door constructions are divided into:

• balcony;
• kitchen
• hallway;
• living rooms.

Others lead to the stairs to the top or to the attic of the house.

Depending on what the doors were made of, they can be wooden, plastic, laminated and glass.

And even on this list of types of doors does not end.

If we talk about the method of opening, the doors are sliding and folding.

Why does the script appear?

Unpleasant gnashing during the opening of the interior and other doors of the house can occur for the following reasons:

• When deviating from the manufacturing rules. If, making a door structure, made an error, for example, incorrect welded loops, then in the course of operation there will necessarily be creaks. And to get rid of uncomfortable sounds, you need to dismantle the input group;
• If the design is not specially oiled. The hinges, which are not lubricated with a special composition, move with a characteristic creak. The situation will be improved by a simple lubricant composition;
• Inaccurately selected lubricant composition for loops. Not the component can become a solid oil, which becomes thick and becomes an abrasive. It will need to be removed and used by another means;
• There are no balls in the loops. Then lift the door leaf from its place, insert the balls into the loops and hoist the door back;
• Skin can cause the creaking to come into contact with the door when it is opened. To eliminate unpleasant sounds, you can only reduce the scissors centimeters of skin. If even after these actions everything remains as before, then it is better to completely replace it;
• If the blade rubs against the box. This may be a consequence of the incorrect location of the door and its swelling due to dampness. If you need to eliminate the first reason, you only need to reinstall the door. But to get rid of the second reason, you have to dry the room;
• The ends of the fabric touch the clypeus. Then grooves, where the fasteners are located, need to be enlarged;
• Loose and spoiled loops. The most reasonable solution in this case is to put other details;
• Weak fixing of door structure hinges. To understand whether there really is such a problem, you can put something under the bottom, for example, an ax with which you need to slightly raise the door leaf. Weak screws must be replaced.

Operations to eliminate the creaking of the entrance door

Wishing that in the future the doors do not creak, they search for the reason for this. If the construction of the door leaf was in the apartment for a long time, then unwanted sounds could arise due to sudden temperature changes.

This is especially evident in autumn and winter. In these seasons, you can not get rid of the reason for the squeaks, but you can from the consequences themselves. It is enough to take a powder of graphite or the most ordinary pencil.

But the owners of the house, who recently installed a new door, may face such a problem. Very often creaks appear due to the fact that the loops hidden in the screws are not closely adjacent to the door jamb.

To unpleasant sounds no longer bother, you need a match and a screwdriver. And you will need PVA glue or ordinary joinery glue.

It is necessary to tighten the screws with a screwdriver, there is nothing complicated in this.

However, it is possible that the screws will rotate. In order not to suffer with this, you need to take in your hands glue and matches.

Matches will play the role of a fastener that you need to make by gluing them together.

Another basis for the appearance of scratches is rust. It is formed on hinges if the house is damp. Therefore, the first thing to do, remove the rust.

Action to get rid of the creaking of the metal structure

The primary reason that the iron door structure began to make creaking sounds may be that the canvas sagged.

Metal has a lot of weight, so its weight can lead to the appearance of squeaks.

You will no longer hear squeaky sounds with a special lubricating oil. The cause of their occurrence may be improper installation of canopies.

In this case, you need to invite the installation wizard. He must repair the malfunction, otherwise the door leaf may become deformed.

If, apart from the creaking sound, that the door closes tight, it means that metal shavings or other debris fell into the grooves of the canopy.

You will need to dismantle the fabric and clean it, and then insert it back.

What should I do if the plastic door on the balcony creaks?

Grind can produce worn loops or rust to which they are covered.

To get rid of rust simply, you need to open the balcony door and spread the fastening elements with engine oil from the balcony side.

Lubricate the hinges as follows:

• Open the plastic balcony door structure and insert a wedge under it;
• Using the lever, the blade needs to be raised a little;
• Open rods and other elements of the plastic door structure should be oiled. You do not need to pour a lot, you just need a few drops, so it's easier to use a syringe;
• After that it's time to lower the canvas to its place;
• The residual oil is removed with a cloth.

If attempts to eliminate creaks of plastic construction lead to nothing, this means that the hardware has served its time.

Which tool can I use to remove scripts?

The operation of eliminating the creaking is quite simple, thanks to the engine oil, you can get rid of the grind forever. This is the most popular tool, it can be purchased at the auto parts store.

But there are other oils that can eliminate noise. You can just use sunflower or olive oil.

True result will not be for a long time, since such a tool does not particularly clean the surface and contributes to clogging. Perhaps, after a couple of days, the annoying creaking will appear again.

Therefore, masters are not advised to use oils, they can shorten the shelf life of fasteners.

There are options to do without oil. You can use solidol. It should not be poured, it is better to apply.

This will help a wooden stick. If you have to spread a loop with your finger, be careful not to pinch your arm.

Will get rid of problems graphite from a soft brand pencil. Extract graphite will be easy if you set fire to a tree.

The rod must be crushed and poured into the loop cracks formed as a result of lifting the door structure.

When the canvas is planted in its place, the graphite will crumble, becoming a lubricant to combat friction.

The slate will crumble completely if you open and close the doors several times. This product perfectly protects against rust.

The store sells special sprays suitable for lubricating various parts and mechanisms.

The most common is the WD-40 aerosol. They need to sprinkle the areas that cause the creak. It also comes in handy when you need to lubricate the door lock.

The agent should be applied locally and accurately, leaving no traces on the entire surface.
