That's not always the case. My laptop, Lenovo Ideapad 5 had a hinge issue. I used it for just 5 months. I was always very careful and opened the laptop only from the middle with both hands holding the bottom part in place, yet the hinge broke from the laptop and pushed the bezels out. This was a known issue with this laptop model. I got it fixed under warranty. They just designed it badly.

Wish I saw this before I brought my laptop to the repair shop and wasted 100 euro's, just for them to make it worse! The bezel of my laptop broke, so they used glue to glue it back up and charged me 100 euros for it, and then out of ''kindness'' loosened my laptop hinges. It ended up being so lose that just slightly tilting my laptop by picking it up, would make the screen fall back immediately and heavily! Then they ''fixed it'' free of charge, and ended up tightening it WAY too much even though I specified to only tighten it so it doesn't keep falling when I move. Now it physically feels very heavy to open back up now. I'm gonna try and find some good grease for hinges first and try this out myself, thanks for the video! Hope it works.

I believe those hinges are designed to self-tighten, since if they didn't, they would become loose after a while. Today I stumbled upon a hinge model that didn't have a way to adjust, on a Asus X401u. It came to me already with the case broken and lube didn't resolve the problem. But on laptops that weren't broken yet, your tutorial is spot on. Nowadays I advise people that if they have to pry open the lid with two hands, their laptop need a hinge adjustment ASAP, before the inevitable "crack!" sound is heard.

There is a 5mm hex on the end of hinge bolt. A tubular key for 5mm hex is much better than pliers as you observed. Unfortunatley usually the end is peened on the nut. So the nut can't untighten more. A trick is to tigten the nut (and this will free the nut in rotation) then untighten all the way you can and repeat a couple-a dozen of times. This will loosen the nut eventualy a bit. (basicly forcing the nut out will lightly unpean the end of the bolt). Also by tightening more you will squish the friction plates more maybe making them a bit thinner so when nut is undone to previous location it will loosen.

I have two Acer laptops, one nearly 10 years old, the other two. Both hinges are too stiff. I was told in two repair shops that the hinges can not be adjusted! I don't dare to do it myself. I am doing the following, which I think will avoid breakage of the lid for quite a while. The lid opens up to about 45 degrees still fairly easily. To open it further, I put my two thumbs against the bottom of the frame of the screen, where the hinges are, and open the lid the rest of the way by pushing with my thumbs.So I apply the force directly to the hinges and they will not break the bottom of the lid away from the lid.

awesome video, but with thinkpads or at least with the older models, it's kinda uncommon to hear any hinge problem with them, it's because the hinge mounts are usually molded to a big piece that mounted to a big surface of the body instead of using brass nuts that welded to fragile plastics. But only on higher end thinkpads tho, my brother's x240 do have a big piece of magnesium but my lower end e330 uses the brass mounts that recently broke off

You can't loosen the latter because it's hidden in the screen panel. Only loosening the former is a recipe for disaster because you'll introduce even more imbalances.

If the plastic where that metal piece is screwed is not very good/solid, it breaks all the time... They should make it stronger! It's a critical part... Isn't there a better way to loosen that nut? It's just too thin and it's REALLY hard to move it with pliers...

The should, but then why would we buy new laptops? There is no better way to loosen the nut. Your only luck would be if some hex wrench would fit in there.

I noticed a crack in the frame of my laptop just near the hinge area. I used some Araldite on it but it didn't work and the crack reappeared when I opened the laptop for a couple of times. It is lockdown and I am afraid that it may get worsen. Can I have ur email id so that I can send u pics for some suggestion on that. Your help will be highly appreciated.

I think the manufacture has a better way to do this hinge. Most laptop will not last over 4 years, the hinges already stuck and break the screen.
