3.1 Tape the door shut with masking tape.
3.2 Using a 5/16" hex-head socket screwdriver and
a 5/16" open-end wrench, remove the two
screws holding the center hinge (and the shim
glued to it) to the cabinet. Lift the center hinge
to free its pin from the socket in the top of the
door, and set hinge and screws aside. Be careful
not to lose the center hinge spacer and washer.
3.3 Remove the tape and tilt the door away from the
cabinet. Lift the door from the pin in the bottom
hinge bracket. (If the plastic washer sticks to the
door bottom, put it back on the hinge.)

space under the screw head for thickness of shim
and bracket.
