Hello everyone,

A Kera door was installed in our home three years ago.
Recently, it has started rubbing at the bottom. I can’t find any information on how to lift the door.
There are no screws or similar fasteners on the three hinges. Also, behind the rubber seals, there doesn’t seem to be anything in that area.
I have attached some pictures.
Can anyone help me with this?

Thank you.

Hello everyone, since no one responded, here is the solution in case someone else has the same problem.
With my door, I had to remove the pins from the three hinges and then rotate the top hinge on the door by one full turn. After reinserting the pins, everything worked smoothly again.
A bit unusual, as there are easier ways, but at least it’s working now.

Question: Who did this? And what did it cost?

I actually did this myself with a colleague. We propped up the door at the bottom with three books, then removed the bolts. Then I tilted the door slightly inward, so my colleague could screw in a rotation mechanism at the top, and afterwards we reinserted the bolts. We wanted to try it ourselves because we were a bit cautious about the heavy door. But it was worth it...
