Hi there...

Just curious about our doors along the x-axis. Do they move fore/aft by adjusting the 3 top / 3 bottom screws?

I'm dealing with a 6mm gap along the front side of door and 3mm gap along the rear side of door.

Thanks in advance.
 
Hi!

I'm not really sure how you want to adjust it, but I created a couple of pictures to demonstate how you can adjust it with the front 3 top + 3 bottom screws.

This is what you can adjust with them:


Upwards, downwards, circle it, and ofcourse left and right (from that angle)

And forwards and backwards, if you loosen the hinge screws inside the door.

Thanks Gransin... I was interested in your lower photo - moving door forward and back which doesn't seem possible without the shims. Seems if I'm looking to pull door forward then it could only be done by removing a shim that already exists...

You present another adjustment I didn't know what possible. How do you rotate door (top photo semi circles above and below door).

Thanks again,
Tom
 
To move the door forwards and backwards you have to remove the interior door panels, and loosen all the screws that attach the hinges to the door, then you can adjust a bit. A couple of millimetres wont be a problem if the door isn't already adjusted as far forward as possible. You don't need any shims for that.

Maybe you did read my previous post before I edited it?

To rotate the door (circle it) you have to loosen all of the (6) screws that attach the hinges to the chassis, then you can move it around a bit in all directions, but not forward/backward
