Ultimately if your door has dropped then one of the hinge pins has snapped! A quick fix might get it back up in the mean time but eventually it will do it again and get worse! Best bet is to get doors back in line and driver the old broken hinge out with a drift (Bit of metal thinner than the hole  ) and hammer in a new hinge pin!Can't imagine they'd be that expensive, although it'd be a right pain in the arse as it'll likely be rusted in place hence why its broken Paul
