Door dropped anyone tried this

Anyone ever tried this to sort out the dropped door syndrome,It works a treat.
put a wheel stud in the bottom bracket of the door and gently close it, this will lift the door upward by resetting the sag in the bracket

dont close it too hard or it will over correct it

if you over correct it then still the wheel stud in the top hinge and this will lower.

just take it slowly bit by bit, checking after each squeeze!

I find it easier to put a washer between the lower door hinge and bracket.
Ive fixed loads of sagging mk1 doors this way over the years.
