How do you fix a noisy door?

Answer by  danielle1979 (116)

Spray WD-40 on the hinges and that will stop the squeaking noise. The noise comes from the build up of dust in the hinges. Something like WD-40 cleans that off. Do be careful about getting it on the door or jam though.

Get yourself WD40. This fix-all spray fixes almost all squeaky sounds. All you have to do is spray it directly on the hinges and the noise should stop.

Listen carefully to the door to see exactly where the squeak is coming from then apply some 3-in-1 oil to the hinge. Open and close the door a few times.

first the door must be controlled if the door have rust on the hinges, if there is rust the hinges must be lubricated with grease or with oil for metals that is used for lubricating metals, i think this is why a door makes noise when opened or closed, i don't think the noise comes from something else.
