Why Your Door Hinges Matter


Door hinges are small, but essential—they keep your doors aligned, secure, and functioning smoothly. In Singapore’s humid environment, metal hinges can corrode, wood can warp, and screws loosen over time. A neglected hinge can lead to sagging doors, squeaks, or even structural damage to the door frame.


At PlugBear, we see many homeowners contacting us because of hinge problems after moving in, renovation work, or just everyday wear. A professional hinge fix helps restore door function, protects your doors, and supports home safety and aesthetics.


Always look for trusted handyman in Singapore to fix your home issues.


Door Hinge Replacement

Common Hinge Problems & Causes


  • Squeaky or stiff hinges — usually from lack of lubrication or rust buildup


  • Loose screws / misalignment — screws may loosen over time or wood may compress


  • Sagging doors or dragging — hinge failure causes doors to tilt and scrape flooring


  • Corrosion / rust in humid climate


  • Warped doors or frames due to moisture, shifting, or poor installation

PlugBear’s Door Hinge Process (Repair & Replacement)


  1. Inspection & Assessment: We examine door alignment, hinge condition, frame integrity, and signs of damage.


  2. Repair First: Where possible, we repair: tighten, fill holes, lubricate, adjust alignment.


  3. Replacement: If repair isn’t sufficient, we replace hinges — selecting the right size, type (e.g. butt hinge, concealed hinge), and finish.


  4. Frame & Door Adjustment: We shift or re-mortise hinge slots if necessary to align gap and swing.


  5. Test & Final Touches: Check door swing, squeaks, gaps; clean and protect the hinge surfaces.


  6. Coordinate with Related Services: If hinge replacement affects nearby carpentry or finishing (e.g. built-in wardrobes or trim), we integrate with Plugbear’s carpentry & renovation services for seamless results.
