space between the hinge side of the frame and door panel. Turn the center screws counter-
clockwise (-) to decrease the space between the hinge side of the frame and the door panel

hinge to adjust beyond its design capability which can cause the hinge to bind, damage
the hinge and/or pull out the screws. A 3/4 turn of the center screw provides approximately
5/32" adjustment.
