Does anyone know how to adjust the friction hinge on my rig? I understand the concept but it seems a little tight.

They press the hinges on the top hinge in the bottom hinge the center hinge is not pressed. Which means when they make the hinge they put an end dent on the pins which makes it very difficult to close the door. I was watching my jams on the door giving because of the friction fit hinges are so tight. I took it upon myself to open up the hinges now they close like a normal door I couldn’t stand them2020 Momentum 25G

That would be the unintended consequence of friction. Wear. Like brakes and friction clutches.
I must claim ignorance understanding the mechanism of how this hinge friction is created. I know I have bent hinge pins to create a little drag in house door hinges.Ted
