Richard B Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 They can be a right sod to get out sometimes. Door off for access. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davemate Posted April 3, 2014 Author Share Posted April 3, 2014 Do the pins come upwards or downwards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimEB Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 From memory (last did one nearly 20 years ago!), they drift out upwards. Come to think of it, if they were fitted from beneath, they'd eventually drop out... ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davemate Posted April 3, 2014 Author Share Posted April 3, 2014 That's a logical theory Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard B Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Yep which makes the front bottom one a pig to remove as the sill is in the way.Usually the top one wears/breaks.There are copper/brass washers installed as well and small grooves for oil/grease to be applied in the hinges. ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
