- 1). Open the door slightly so that you can access the hinge and the outside edge of the door.
- 2). Search for the center pin that the two leafs of the hinge pivot around. Each part of the hinge has two or three small sleeves that intersect. The hinge pin inserts into these sleeves to connect the two pieces.
- 3). Insert a flat-head screwdriver between the top of the hinge and the bottom of the hinge pin head. Pry the hinge pin up with the screwdriver to move the head away from the hinge.
- 4). Grasp the head of the hinge pin with a pair of pliers, and pull the hinge pin straight out, separating the two-piece hinge. Repeat the process for all three hinges on the door. Pull the door away from the opening when all three hinges are separated.
