Squeaking door: oil against the annoying noise
The most common cause of door squeaking is the hinges. In order for you to be able to treat them properly, however, the door must be lifted off the hinge. You can then oil the mandrel. Before doing this, it is advisable to clean the area thoroughly.
Haus.de
advises
sucking off
the
dust with a vacuum cleaner
and finally wiping it off with a damp cloth. The use of a chemical rust remover is unlikely to be absent from a squeaky front door. The fishing rods can ideally be treated with bicycle oil or sewing machine oil. Whichever oil you choose, just put a
few drops on a rag
and work it into the hinges.
Your door cannot be removed?
No problem: so-called penetrating oil is available for this case.
It is only sprayed onto the hinge and also works against the squeak.

Squeaky door: These home remedies shouldn't be used
Some people like to use
butter, hairspray, wax, cooking oil or petroleum jelly
to counteract the annoying noise.
Haus.de
advises
against
it.
Although these remedies help against squeaking for a short time, they are not a permanent solution.
While petroleum jelly creates a thick, black pulp on the hinge, cooking oil and butter will begin to smell.
So it's better to use bicycle oil, sewing machine oil or graphite grease and motor oil.
