Some random person on Reddit just linked this in a thread and I'm happily watching the whole video, even though I don't have an issue with my door. This is great. No malarkey, just straight to the point!
Doors change slowly over time, so it's not surprising this trick is still applicable. Probably still works on pre-hung doors as well. Thanks for your feedback.
Thanks for the concern. Hanging in there at 3/4 of a century. Should change my profile pic to reflect my aging reality. Hope you're well yourself, Sr. Morales.
Just came here from Reddit. :) Years ago, I saw a video similar to yours with this fix. I've been meaning to do this to the sticky linen closet door for years. Of course, I only remember when I about to get into the shower and grab a new towel. After watching this, I immediately grabbed some tools and now, 5 minutes later, I'm back at my computer and that freakin' door is no longer binding on the jamb. Informative, to the point, and very well done. 15 years later, and you're still helping people! Thank you sir!
Yes, thanks for this trick! All my doors seem to be okay, but that's the thinking process that I missed before. I would have chiseled out the hinge attachment and rescrewed the hinge back. Even though that bending the hinge a little is what was required. And I think it's not the only place where such thinking can be applied! Thanks once again.
Same here! I actually have this issue with the door to my daughter's room. I pleased to see the website it still active! I've got some other issues as well.
+donnydoors I don't have a door issue but i watched this entirely. Outstanding video :) you explain things in a easy to follow method. I shall subscribe!
+donnydoors I've had a sagging door like this for years because I used to hang on it as a child and now my parents don't know when i get snacks in the middle of the night haha :) thanks Donny!
I am a 21 years old girl and my mum didn't believe I could do this. I fixed all 3 sticky doors after watching ur tutorial! It's the best tutorial out there and very easy to follow. Thank you! Also, a tip for those with no dike: you can use a screwdriver. Tap the hammer to knock out the long piece (whatever that's called) from the bottom.
This technique worked great. I used an additional trick to determine that exact amount I need to bend the hinge. Before bending, slide some cardboard or a wedge from the side or bottom to line up the top and bottom of the door evenly with the frame. Now the hinge holes will be out of alignment. Simply bend the door hinge until they are aligned.
Over a decade later, your video helped me clear up a sticky door! Only thing I had to do was add nearly a dozen shims to all four sides as my door was really messed up, to the point it wouldn’t fully close.
This was about 100x better than I expected. I've fixed a number of doors over the years but never considered such a slick adjustment with the crescent to the door side barrels. Nicely done.
I miss these days of UA-cam. Helpful instructional video that cuts right to the chase. No filler. Actually informative and helpful. He teaches you exactly what he says he’s going to. No ad or marketing BS. No stupid graphics. No 5min intro for 45sec of content. No begging for subscribers or likes. AND you helped me figure out and solve the problem I was having-something that a dozen other UA-camrs failed to accomplish. Thank you, sir!
I'm overwhelmed by your compliment. Scripting is important, though I usually don't follow note for note. Hope some of my other videos measure up to the same standard. Thanks.
I found this video on the Digg home page and I thought (for some reason) that it was going to be funny or some kind of weird disaster. But, what i found was a clear, informative instructional video which I followed to fix the sticking closet door in my bedroom. It works perfectly now. Terrific video!
I came looking for help to fix a hard to latch bathroom door. Among the endless sea of video choices, I started to feel a bit overwhelmed. Then, as I saw this kind looking man, I felt a bit of relief. And when I saw his channel name, DonnyDoors, it was like the skies had cleared and I felt safe again. Thanks, DonnyDoors for such easy to understand instructions!
Sir, you are a fountain of wisdom and knowledge, not to mention common sense and life skills. Thank you for making your videos to teach us, younger generations, how to diy with skill. God bless you ❤
Donny, your video has been up for four years and it's still the most helpful thing I've run across! I started today prepared to shave and paint three doors but thought I'd first look around a bit more and stumbled on this from you. It took me ten minutes to fix all three doors and they're perfect! Thank you thank you thank you for this video!
You're very welcome, Scott H. congratulating us is righteous. Finding the video and figuring out how that it will fix your particular problem, well, that's half the job.
Thank you for this perfect walk through for the non handy person. My daughter's door has been sticking for about a year and I was agonizing about tackling the project. With your video, I fixed my daughter's door in 1 minute verses what I was going to do...take the door off, sand and repaint. Thank you for saving me a several hours of useless steps and making me look like the hero in front of my family. That was truly the greatest DYI fix yet.
Gee, John, I'm comment-less. What a perfect scenario. Just the fact that you decided to try the trick was courageous. Enjoy the praise to the utmost, you deserve it.
I just did a search for "Why is my door sticking" and when I saw the thumbnail for this video, I thought, "Oh yeah. This is definitely the right guy to learn from." So glad I did! Also just bought your eBook. Thanks for sharing your experience, Don!
Fantastic video Donny! Very well explained. Right to the point. No time wasted. Using your handy method, plus a little sanding on outer edges…I’ve fixed 5 doors thanks to you!!
I may be a one-trick pony, but folks do appreciate my trick. (Actually, there are a few more tricks on video and in the book. ) Nevertheless, thanks a lot for the comment.
Your instructions were so clear and simple and straight to the point. I’m sitting here in the Home Depot parking lot trying to watch these videos and luckily yours was the second one I came across. Thank you gonna fix my door tonight
From one Don to another thanks so much for this video. As you said, I had always been told to take off and plane a sticking door. I was getting ready to help my son do that at their recently purchased first home, on two fiberglass entry doors with about an 1/8 inch strip of something around them that appeared to be planeable (if that’s a word). I had only ever planed wood doors. It was a worrisome prospect. Yesterday, I searched UA-cam for “planing sticking doors” and your video came up. We followed your directions and it fixed both doors! No removing, no planing! Awesome! I went to your website and bought your book for him! Thanks again, Don Stewart
Started watching 7-8 videos before this one, cheesy music and over explaining. Started this one and this one straight to the point and it helped. Door fixed! Thanks!
I consider myself extremely competent at repairs, but I had never seen this technique in my 5 decades on this earth. Thank you Donny for sharing this little tip. I just fixed 3 of my exterior doors in about 15 minutes. Big love from Texas!
donny this simple to understand instructional video right here helped me fix a door that had the exact same issue for 20 years (maybe worse than the door featured in this video). just wanted to express my gratitude and tell you that you are a legend in your own right mate. i would encourage you to keep making great instructional videos like this if you want to and can. from your biggest dyi fan from down under! - scott
This vid is 12 years old. Still works. Fixed two doors today following his instruction. Worked great. Thanks! Also really like your teaching style. Glad you're using your gift.
Can't thank you enough for the simplicity and effectiveness of this video. I fixed two sticking doors today using the techniques outlined here. Your explanation is super clear and worked like magic. Pretty satisfying to fix a problem that's been daily in your life.
I'm glad I clicked on this, i wasn't looking for a door but found yours open. In it was found Understanding, carful observing and brotherly love. I'm not so anxious as i was coming here. Somehow this is therapeutic. Thank you.
Watched this when it first came out, and I just returned to it for a refresher... It's a classic "how to video" thats informative and I'll always enjoy. Nice job!
Live in an old apartment, the heat / humidity did a number on my bathroom door. WELL... THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO instruction I've seen so far in all my searches. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You're more than welcome. But don't re-sealing that door once all the problems are solved. One coat of Kilz should do. But a second coat if the 2nd doesn't work.
Will someone please enlighten an old man, who doesn't watch horror movies, what is the context of this "Door Stuck!" gag? If you can't post publicaly, be glad to do it for yah.
It's not a movie it's a youtube video where someone is playing a video game and get stuck in a door while someone is knitting him and the guy yells "DOOR STUCK!, DOOR STUCK! '
This is a terrific instructional video for a door that catches or sticks when closing. I fixed a pantry door in about 5 minutes. I appreciate that the video shows how to shim the door for support while adjusting the hinge. This was very helpful. Thank you for posting.
*going after comment #2* cheat on your man homie AGGH i tried to sneak through the door,man! can't make it,can't make it,the shit's stuck. Outta my way,son! DOOR'S STUCK,DOOR'S STUCK!
+skeleman1963 That video is nearly a decade old, yet you're the first to notice that. Funny, I just noticed it the other day. If you check out my Door Trix book, you'll find that bending a hinge pin thus provides a way to slow down a "ghosting" door, thatis a door that closes on its own. Not always a sure fire cure. But I believe that particular door, which I rigged in order to make the video, was always swinging shut. I bent the pin and it helped a bit. Thanks for the comment.
I saw this video years ago. It helped me fix my door. I came back tonight and searched and searched and searched for this very video. Finally found it. You, sir, are a GOD. THANK YOU!!!
Sorry about the search. "donnydoors" "sticking door." No matter; I'm very glad you found it. Share with your friends. Maybe they'll help you remember next time.
"AGGHH tried to sneak through the door man. Can't make it, can't make it the sh--'s stuck! Outta my way son! *DOOR STUCK!! DOOR STUCK!! I BEG YOU!! WERE DEAD!"*
+Ac Kk I'm astonished. Thanks for the info, and the link. But I feel like many an almost famous novelist - my first work remains my most successful. :-)
Genius Absolutely Genius!!! Living in a 70 year old house, this has changed my life! I sent it to everyone I know. It was life altering to say the least! No more pounding jams, chipping paint, or belt sanding the door and jams. Thank you thank you so thank you !
I still can't recall whether I stumbled upon the trick myself, or it was shown to me. But either way, I'm glad it worked for you. Given I'll soon be a year away from 80, a 1950's house is not so old. In fact had your house been 100, the trick may not have worked for you because the hinges were much thicker. I'm so glad you shared. Enjoy your success. (+Be safe.)
Thanks so much for the video! 13 years later and half a world away, you've fixed my front door in Hong Kong. That thing's been bugging me for decades, but a few minutes of work after watching your video appears to have done the trick
@@donnydoors I will buddy, I have a bedroom door that gets stuck at the top during the hotter months. I was considering just shaving or planing that particular area. Pehaps I will re think and check out the hinges. Thanks to the smart internet techs we can find more wonderful helpful people like yourself.
Thank you Donny! I have a few doors either sticking and closes, or sticking but won't shut at all! I'm definitely going to try this method. This video is 14 years and still going strong!!
Let me see what this old geezer has to say about my inner door jamming. Turns out it was not initially what I was looking for. Instead the led chap gave me a solution to an ever jamming front door. I can’t thank this guy enough, that door pissed me off ever so slightly, every day for the last 12 years!! Fantastic thx don.
Some random person on Reddit just linked this in a thread and I'm happily watching the whole video, even though I don't have an issue with my door. This is great. No malarkey, just straight to the point!
Same
Me too 😀
Watching Grandpa from Reddit as well
Same!
Posted 14 years ago … and people are still finding, and using this simple remedy. Thank you sir!
Doors change slowly over time, so it's not surprising this trick is still applicable. Probably still works on pre-hung doors as well. Thanks for your feedback.
@@donnydoors I don't even need to fix a door but here I am
This is still, years later, one of the clearest instructional videos I've ever seen. You're a natural teacher. Hope you're well, Don.
Thanks for the concern. Hanging in there at 3/4 of a century. Should change my profile pic to reflect my aging reality. Hope you're well yourself, Sr. Morales.
When this video came out, I was still wearing diapers. Now I even know what to do with my peepee besides peeing. 😌

+donnydoors You should really consider doing more on UA-cam. You're informative, the video and audio was great, and you're a pleasure to watch.
+Ryan Saundercook Takes a bit of time, but I try to get a couple out every year. Subscribe and you should be notified.
Donny, you made my wife VERY happy! And when my wife is happy, EVERYBODY'S HAPPY! :-)
A perfect instructional video. Good volume, clear speaking, perfect camera angles and close-ups, and no assumptions. Thanks.

+Ion Ymous I agree. It was well done.

DOOR STUCK DOOR STUCK
So nice to find a how-to video that is straight to the point with no commercials, annoying music or useless commentary. Thank you sir.
45 years of shaving the sides of stuck doors and you solved my problem a better way in 7 minutes...
11 years! That’s how long the damn door was sticking for! OMFG! Thank you! I fixed it thanks to you!
In that 11 years you didn't think to shave the door? I find that little odd. Well glad you learned something here.
another way to fix this problem is to ignore it and pretend it doesn't exist and you did that pretty well for ELEVEN years!
Don't listen to them. When you figure it out, you figure it out. I'm pleased at such joy in a positive comment. Thanks back to you.
For 6 years I believed that sanding was not the right approach... And glad I’m right and a happy man now!
Wow. The best fix it videos on this problem I've ever seen. So well explained! You sir are a REAL teacher.
Seriously, i wish i seen thisa week ago when i was sanding n sanding to get the high rubbing points down. Smh
Thanks random youtube suggestion lol
I agree with you. Brilliant
I have an older home and I'm so glad I found this video. This method fixed 2 doors for me! Great information, thank you 💯
I am a 21 years old girl and my mum didn't believe I could do this. I fixed all 3 sticky doors after watching ur tutorial!
It's the best tutorial out there and very easy to follow. Thank you!
Also, a tip for those with no dike: you can use a screwdriver. Tap the hammer to knock out the long piece (whatever that's called) from the bottom.
Thanks for the wonderful comment and the bit of extra info. Let's hope others can read your comment. Thannks again.
I never had a dad - I'm going to listen to your vids before I go to sleep each night. Thanks for being my dad, Donny.
+JUAN CHERRY Sure 'nuff! Maybe I should do a few on cooking and cleaning toilets.
there's alot wrong with these comments
Out my way son
and mine!
@@donnydoors fixing toilets would be great! Although I learned the hard way years ago...replace parts don't try and fix them. Cheaper and easier
This technique worked great. I used an additional trick to determine that exact amount I need to bend the hinge.
Before bending, slide some cardboard or a wedge from the side or bottom to line up the top and bottom of the door evenly with the frame. Now the hinge holes will be out of alignment. Simply bend the door hinge until they are aligned.

At least the trick worked, yes? I admire folks who persist. Congrats.
As a maintenance tech for 10years now, this is the best solution I've seen to solve this issue. Works great! Thank you sir 👍
An endorsement from a pro means a lot to me. Thanks, William.
11 year old UA-cam video just helped me solve an issue that I thought was gonna take hours in about 5 minutes. Thank you, good sir
I love it when a plan comes together

You're more than welcome. But don't re-sealing that door once all the problems are solved. One coat of Kilz should do. But a second coat if the 2nd doesn't work.
2:02 that sounds like the voice of a man who is fed up with telling people to stop slamming the goddamn door
Will someone please enlighten an old man, who doesn't watch horror movies, what is the context of this "Door Stuck!" gag?
If you can't post publicaly, be glad to do it for yah.
You ever figure it out?
It's not a movie it's a youtube video where someone is playing a video game and get stuck in a door while someone is knitting him and the guy yells "DOOR STUCK!, DOOR STUCK! '
Thank you! May all your faded films be restored to brightness.
No problem and hopefully you get all your doors unstuck :)
Same here. I had never heard of such a thing. But now we know. Ha
Brilliant. Great video.
Glad to be of service.
This is a terrific instructional video for a door that catches or sticks when closing. I fixed a pantry door in about 5 minutes. I appreciate that the video shows how to shim the door for support while adjusting the hinge. This was very helpful. Thank you for posting.
You're very welcome. Wish I had a few more like this one. The book has a lot of suggestions, but nothing as nifty as this.
This old man did more repairs in this short video than my father did in the last 5 years
Aw, but he's your Pops. That's the important thing. (Not that I don't appreciate the compliment.)
The phantom, interior like fish eggs
Interior like suicide wrist red
I COULD EXERCISE YOU, THIS COULD BE YA PHYS. ED.
*going after comment #2*
cheat on your man homie AGGH i tried to sneak through the door,man! can't make it,can't make it,the shit's stuck. Outta my way,son! DOOR'S STUCK,DOOR'S STUCK!
The Self Adjectated Gender Please! I beg you!!
OUT OF MY WAY SON
YOU ARE GOOD!!!! Thank you.
Very helpful, thank you! I was particularly pleased to learn your trick with the scrap shims after the adjustment to the hinge.
I'll have to look that over. Meanwhile, thanks for the comment.
Seems like a good guy :)
+Will Ventura To the best of my ability.
I MISREAD THIS I THOUGHT YOU SAID SMELLS LIKE A GOOD GUY ZKSHJSXBSJZ
neat video but that door hinge pin was not straight....
+skeleman1963 That video is nearly a decade old, yet you're the first to notice that. Funny, I just noticed it the other day. If you check out my Door Trix book, you'll find that bending a hinge pin thus provides a way to slow down a "ghosting" door, thatis a door that closes on its own. Not always a sure fire cure. But I believe that particular door, which I rigged in order to make the video, was always swinging shut. I bent the pin and it helped a bit. Thanks for the comment.
Man I wish I had a door to fix.
I saw this video years ago. It helped me fix my door. I came back tonight and searched and searched and searched for this very video. Finally found it. You, sir, are a GOD. THANK YOU!!!
Sorry about the search. "donnydoors" "sticking door." No matter; I'm very glad you found it. Share with your friends. Maybe they'll help you remember next time.
Tried to sneak out the door man, i cant get out.
"AGGHH tried to sneak through the door man. Can't make it, can't make it the sh--'s stuck! Outta my way son! *DOOR STUCK!! DOOR STUCK!! I BEG YOU!! WERE DEAD!"*
I'm so glad to see John Madden has found something to do in his retirement.
+Neil M Not Bernie Sanders?
+donnydoors Bernie Sanders... Niiiiice...
+donnydoors Touche :)
The door is finally unstuck. :D
What else is in that bucket? It's like Mary Poppins' bag. Anything could be in there!
thanks reddit
+AY SKITZ So what's Reddit doing? I'm clueless.
+Ac Kk I'm astonished. Thanks for the info, and the link. But I feel like many an almost famous novelist - my first work remains my most successful. :-)
Genius Absolutely Genius!!! Living in a 70 year old house, this has changed my life! I sent it to everyone I know. It was life altering to say the least! No more pounding jams, chipping paint, or belt sanding the door and jams. Thank you thank you so thank you !
I still can't recall whether I stumbled upon the trick myself, or it was shown to me. But either way, I'm glad it worked for you. Given I'll soon be a year away from 80, a 1950's house is not so old. In fact had your house been 100, the trick may not have worked for you because the hinges were much thicker. I'm so glad you shared. Enjoy your success. (+Be safe.)
6:34 THUG LIFE!
+Kevin Herlihy Someone needs to apply the thug life slow mo and music to this
This reminds me of one vid DOOR STUCK
GET OUT OF THE WAY MAN! DOOR STUCK! DOOR STUCK! PLEASE, I BEG YOU!
Thanks so much for the video! 13 years later and half a world away, you've fixed my front door in Hong Kong. That thing's been bugging me for decades, but a few minutes of work after watching your video appears to have done the trick
Glad to hear it. Share the trick if you get a chance. And stay safe from disease and ...other things.
Go to stodoys page if you want to learn how to build it yourself
DOOR STUCK DOOR STUCK
Absolute quality grandad material. Don't underestimate simple priceless logic, commonsense and life experience. Thanks mate.
Thanks so much for the compliment. May you make good use of the trick.
@@donnydoors I will buddy, I have a bedroom door that gets stuck at the top during the hotter months. I was considering just shaving or planing that particular area. Pehaps I will re think and check out the hinges. Thanks to the smart internet techs we can find more wonderful helpful people like yourself.
@@anthonywilson38 Yeah, this is definitely one of the ways the internet really works. Spread the word.
Thank you Donny! I have a few doors either sticking and closes, or sticking but won't shut at all! I'm definitely going to try this method. This video is 14 years and still going strong!!
Thanks for the comment. The book has more tricks than I've turned into video, and a few more videos than the one - the 14 year old star. Good luck.,
Let me see what this old geezer has to say about my inner door jamming. Turns out it was not initially what I was looking for. Instead the led chap gave me a solution to an ever jamming front door.
I can’t thank this guy enough, that door pissed me off ever so slightly, every day for the last 12 years!! Fantastic thx don.
I'm so glad to have been of service. Spread the word. Consider the book.
