Hello and welcome on my channel. Today I´d like to show you how to repair broken laptop hinges.
This is a very common problem. Hinges are broken and plastic parts damaged.
Changing the bottom case cover, palmrest or LCD cover and bezel is very expensive.
After several years I've improved my way of repairing the hinges in an elegant and cheap way.
I have repaired more than one hundred laptops by this way.
Many people try to fix hinges only with hot melt glue gun or seal up broken parts and It won't work last long. Only Strong Epoxy Glue is useless.
We only need basic tools. Drill bits, screws, nuts and rivets.
Sometimes we have to use Strong Epoxy Glue or any other strong glue for fixing broken small pieces. We need the original position of the threads.
All important parts you can buy from me on ebay.

It took me over one year to create this video.
This repair procedure can also be applied to various models.
I chose several laptops of different brands.

It`s not 2 $, it`s worth thousands! You`re a master, both in repairing and videomaking
I don't know why, but watching you repairing all of those laptop make me relaxed 👍❤
It's the music, lol.
Thank you for this video. I called a shop about a repair and was quoted $200+ or so. I never would have thought about doing what you showed. You gave me impetus and courage. Now my HP laptop is repaired. Thank you!
I think they're opting of replacing the entire case
It's the best I have seen about fixing hinges. Thanks for sharing.
حممممخعجه
I fixed mine! This literally saved me $60 for the repair. Plus, I learned a lot! Thank you!
Thank you very much for this video. Just fixed my HP-15 laptop hinge using this method. In case anyone has this problem on an HP and is not sure of the exact hardware required I can help out. I only had one hinge that was broken & it was detached from the screen not the chassis. I used (3) M4-0.7x12mm flat head screws & (3) M4 Nylon lock washers. The 12mm are the perfect length. It is probably a good idea to add a drop or two of oil to the hinge to reduce the friction while you are in there. Barrel lugs would look better but may not be available at your local hardware store. Clearance hole was made using a 5/32" drill bit, I believe, but start with 1/8" and work your way up sizes until the screw barely passes through. You want a tight fit. Also, on one of the hinges, there was a very thin metal sheet riveted on to the hinges that was obstructing access to the mounting holes so I just pried that off with a small screwdriver. Easy project.
I asked to a professional to fix my HP TwT
Thanks for comment i was wondering about my lapppi size
Nyla W!ngsTracks how much was it?
Facing the same issue with my hp 15 series laptop. But I'm gonna drill but gonna use some tough glue with baking salt.
I also repaired my hp 15 from year 2014 the same way.
It served me quite a long time. Before I could finally get a new casing
Very good video. I am sure I could do this and I am 75 years old! Thank you so much.
Repairing is joy. Ending ewaste and saving money.
21:10 was so helpful. The grommets holding the left hinge arm in the display fell out, so I used screws and nuts through the display assembly to keep it togther. Thank you for sharing!
What's the name of that golden nut i didn't find it please tell me
You weren't supposed to figure out a fix. The manufacturers designed them to break like that.
In all seriousness, thank you. Liked and subbed.
You will never get a better video than this on internet
J-B Weld steel epoxy also gives excellent results. I would also consider adjusting the tension in the hinges.
Yes have the best method of fixing ... Infact it is the permanent solution. It will never have the same problem again till laptop drops dead.
Thanks.
Love love love this video. Thanks for sharing all your hard work and great job on rewriting the rules on how to.
Fantastic video, you saved me from having to buy another lap top!!! Thank you so very much!!!!! 😃
Here is your Doctorate to Computers...🎖️🏅🥇🏆🎖️ Take it....👍👍💐💐
Very clever- my wife's Lenovo G570 has the same hinge failure and your video will be a great help in fixing it: probably stronger than the original Thanks for posting! (England)
I am so glad it helped.
This repair was a party like no other, great music, great video making while ending ewaste together. You are a hero.
Now THIS is the sure way to fix laptop hinges!
that sleek look of fixed laptop opening and closing, satisfaction, perfection, a pleasure to the eye
i like to repair stuff on my own . my sony vaio's hinge had broken 6-7year ago . i got it repaired using epoxy and super glue but it had to be repaired again and again after every few months . I saw this video a month ago and got it fixed using rivet screw .that rivet screw solved my prob, now it is as good as new .Thanks a ton
this is the best permanent fix on complete stripped off/broken hinges on your laptop great tutorial! now I just need to find the materials to fix mine
Just repaired a broken hinge on my Lenovo Ideapad. I used barrel screws to secure. It's super sturdy now. Thank you!
Tried one with hot glue.......... broke again in 2-3 days.... Ordered some of these rivets on amazon, will fix it properly this time. Nice job, thanks
This is so satisfying 😍😍😍
The hinge of my laptop recently broke. I have fixed it by Epoxy glue in other laptop and Now I will fix mine with rivets
i was about to ask something similar, not every glue works.. i put right now (cianocrilate) but i dont think its going to last - the whole effort its not simple, is dissassemblying whole computer almost
...at last, someone on youtube who knows what they are doing!
I find that very therapeutic watching all those repairs. Superb work you are doing. I'm nowhere near as good with my fixes but I try.. Got to love UA-cam for being able to see all the different techniques.
I'm 30 minutes into the video but I'm still thoroughly entertained. Good job!
Thank you. You just helped me get my 90 year old neighbor's laptop fixed. She could not have afforded a new one nor a repair.
Excellent video man! You do quality work. I just did this to my own laptop and it's working great again.
Excellent, excellent video, sir! Thank you so much for your time and hard work! I can now stop searching for a replacement shell for my Acer laptop!!! 🙏 Namaste
Excellent solutions with permanent fixes. But, some of your customers probably cried when seeing the Frankenstein screw heads sticking out on their laptops! :) To prevent the cracks on the plastic case, I would use washers under most screw heads. I would drill the counterbore holes to offset the washer's thickness to make them look less visible. Thanks for the great video.
Better than an unfuctionnal pc
Isto é um exemplo de Arrogância! Otária
I've Seen a lot of videos. This is the first real long time repair. Congratulations.
You doing it like a pro like it should be done properly. Great Video
Nice to share.. Its a nice alternative for repairing the hinges.
Wow good job you make happy poorer people like me every day who can't afford new laptop and it's their work computer.keep up the good work
Thank you for posting this. Superlative work. This is a genuine solution to a common problem. When the hinge tore apart my brother's laptop. The only advice from the repair shop was lots of electrical tape to patch it; and, get a new one.
Omg thank you for making this video, this is extremely helpful.
Very smart to drill the thing all the way around
Congratulations on one of the best videos i have ever seen on UA-cam. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
just excellent video......fantastic!!! i think it is so helpful to everyone who watched this video ..thank you so much fir uploading this video
Ur idea to fixed laptop hinges is superb.Good job
Thank god, this video has my exact laptop model and with the same problem I've been having. Now I can show this to my dad so he can fix the little bugger before my next semester starts
My workmates laughed at me when I suggested doing this, thankyou.
Thanks sir for this video. It saved my 18000 Indian Rs for Dell Insprion 7537 touch laptop. i just spend 10 rs and the problem is fixed. Thanks for saving my money.
I liked the video a lot. The viewing angles were unobstructed and well done. Very helpful.
I like the rivets idea, I didn't know those exist. I had some luck using a lot of epoxy and counter sinking the bottom side into the laptop and then covering it to hide it. I lucked out on that one and it lined up with one of the rubber feet which hides the hole beautifully
The video is very detailed ,clearly to follow. This happen to my husband twice hp laptop.
You are a smart person.
Such level of precision requires prior experience that I don't have.
I'm affraid I would rather spoil than repair with this trick.
This is a GREAT video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It has given me the courage to do it myself. I took to the shop and they want 350 to repair. I can buy a new laptop computer for that.... I have a question, you showed the Toshiba fix but it is only on the bottom assembly. My repair is on the top assembly over on the right by the on button . Do you have a video repair for the top assembly? If so please provide the link.
excellent estimated video, unfortunately I have worked on similar things, they are difficult unpleasant .. but seeing your effort makes you want to imitate. The other option is to buy the original part which is between expensive and sometimes impossible. congratulations and greetings from Argentina
thank you very helpful video! I will be following your guide in fixing my Lenovo laptop.
One of the best video ever i seen..for fixing hinges... thanks Bro
What an excellent technique!!! I think I am going to use this technique, because for my laptop, just gluing may not be enough. The glue may not stay since I have already applied lub oil to the hinge to free it up. Thanks a lot for great closeup views. You are very smart and practical. Wish you all the best!!! I liked your video very very much!!!
The two rivets on each side look like styling features. Good astheics.
Technically perfect, good job, good video
This is a much better solution than fixing with hardeners 👍
Thank you. Exactly what I needed to watch.
Perfect ... thanks for this video. I have hinge problem in my dell Inspiron 1525. Hope can fix it using your technique.
You should sell small assortments of the nuts and bolts you use in these videos on eBay, maybe with the glue as an option. Like "enough parts to fix both hinges on most Acer/Gateway models", etc. With link to your video and instructions on resetting the nuts & what size drill bits to use. I've had three laptops now that worked perfectly well & were on current platforms except the hinges going made them completely unusable. Not everyone can afford to care more about how their laptop looks than how it works. Hoping I can get the self-employed repair guy I know to consider adding these kinds of chassis repairs to his services. Thanks for sharing!
There is a way to prevent the bracket breaking the laptop casing in the first place. When you feel the laptop lid getting tighter to open. Split the laptop to access the hinge bracket. 30 seconds into this video you will see a large Nut on the end of the Hinge bracket. Turns this nut anticlockwise one or two turns, this will release the tightness on the hinge and allow the hinge to move more freely. This nut is spring loaded and will not loosen. Prevention is better than cure.
Superb videos, really gave me an inspiration on hinge repair,Thanks!
Thanks 4 sharing! Thays the real way to do it. U Rock!
Thank you. Better than the original.
You and this video are worth in gold!!!
every laptop maker, and every laptop buyer needs to see this. Acer and HP are the worst offenders. If you still buy one of them, you may as well do this on the first day to save yourself the epoxy and hassle. Make your own ruggedized laptop hinges.
IT tech here, most common ones are Lenovo and Acer, Lenovo even the main frame breaks most often.
There should be a recall made by consumers, take a few shots of the broken laptop and lodge it with your country's consumer/trade centre.
Bro please reply that my two hinges are broken(the long one which supports the lid) and after using these methods (like using screws) does it lead to broke my panel where the screws are present. Please please reply when you watch this comment. You got a subscriber now.
this guy is a genius!
Man defiantly an amazing video 100% one of the best videos I have seen.
This is way better to watch.
This is what I was looking for. Best way to fix
You're a genius.
Good job! I was thinking of doing the same thing. I guess great minds think alike!
Why does this video not have that many views?
Thanx dude... you're such amazing person...
Super awesome! Thanks for sharing methods for different kinds of laptops, you hit exactly same Acer model that I need to repair!
thanks for shearing such a good experience
upload more videos, quality work. it's great.
i had acer e5 exactly similar broken hinge on that broken hp hinge. Is that method will help to fix my laptop hinge only rivets and drill? Thanks and advance (:
Update: My laptop hinges are fixed now using rivets. Thank you!
Bro u made life hell of a lot easier....hats off....👍
this is genuinely awesome
Wow! That's one of a mix of fixings.
Extrodinary video , really thanks for posting........ Its an Expensive video i've seen ttill...
I learned something today I like it Thank you for your knowledge I wish you long life !!
Thank you for your work, I plan on following your solution but I have one question in mind:
screwing the hinge to the metallic cover with the rivet isn't an electrical risk regarding the connection to the ground ? The original hinge is screwed into the plastic and the two metallic parts isolated from each other (maybe so it breaks and later you pay the repair, but ...)
I wish you were near me so that I can send my laptop to you to fix it 😭😭😢😢 your work looks great !! I want you tk fix mine
مكنكنت
Great practical technique, cool!
