Summary
Installing two rivets in a galvanised garden shed door top hinge in Addington, Christchurch required precise drilling to match existing 4mm rivet holes and 5mm hinge clearances on a 20mm door leaf plus 2mm hinge plate. Access to the backyard was via a side gate that had to be opened by hand, and the door showed some sagging that needed addressing. The job received 1 offer and was assigned for $100. The job was completed within 3 hours of assignment, with on-site work taking around 40 minutes while the handyman adjusted hinge positions to improve operation. Work involved fitting two new 4mm rivets and moving the hinges slightly to lift the sagging door, restoring smoother opening and closing. The customer left a 5/5 rating and commented: "Good work. He put in a lot of new rivets and moved hinges to help door open better. Thank you. Completed in 40 minutes. Great!"

I need a handyman to install two new rivets in the top hinge of my galvanized steel shed door. It has been broken for about a month now. The door sags if opened but it seems to be aligned okay. The holes for the rivets are 4mm and the hinge holes are 5mm. The width of the door is 20mm plus 2mm for the hinge. The shed is in the backyard outside. The handyman would have to enter through the side gate which needs to be opened by hand.
