Lubricate the door with a special tool.
So, if you have a door creaking - what to lubricate? Engine oil is the most reliable and proven way to get rid of creaking doors. You can use diesel oil or special oil that lubricates the details of the sewing machines. Also suitable are such agents as cyatim, solid oil, lithol and other greases. You can also do the following: buy a tool that processes any mechanisms other than doors. They are sold in the form of sprays - spray on problem areas and the nasty creak will disappear.

Other effective ways
If it suddenly turns out that the door is creaking, and there are no special equipment at hand, use vegetable oil. That's just the effect of such a lubricant can be very short-lived. Most likely, after a few days the door will begin to creak again. Therefore, you can use the alternative method - graphite shavings from the most ordinary pencil can come out with lubrication. Aerosol WD is another good remedy. It can be bought at an auto parts store, and used to lubricate doors and restore other mechanisms.

Find out the source of the creak
The sound of a creaking door can become an annoying factor for any person, but before you start to deal with a problem, you first need to find out where the creak comes from. Unpleasant sounds can make any part of the loop - both external and internal. And if you spray various means into all places in a row, not knowing where the root of the problem is, then it is likely that you won’t get rid of the squeak the first time.
