How to fix a sagging door:
Materials:
3" screws (deck screws work well)
Tools:
Drill (with a bit to match deck screw)
Steps:
1. Take out the center screw in the top hinge of the door that goes into the door jamb.
2. Replace it with the 3" deck screw.
3. Tighten screw until the door frames just begins to move.
4. Close door.
5. Open door. If door still sags (sticks) tighten screw 1/4 turn - 1/2 turn at a time. The 3" screw will bite into the stud behind the door frame and pull the door top over and usually does the trick to make the door hang properly.
