  Hinge installation with Moss hardware.jpg - Trying to pull the door hinges flush with the tub using the Moss screws and nuts. This overstresses the hinge and screws, which were 1/4-26 BSF. We ended up grinding down the heads of some American 1/4-20 UNC hardware which drew the hinges in much better. Brian likes to use smaller holes, and thread them with the screws, instead of using the clamping action of the nut. It overstresses the screws and the hinges.
