The instructions here are for changing the door
swing from a right to a left side hinge. If the
door has been reversed, and it is necessary to
change it back, use care when following these
instructions. Some of the illustrations and the left/
right references will be reversed, and you will
need to read the instructions carefully.
WARNING
Be sure to support the weight of the door before
removing the hinge screws.
