Overview
E-Z Shim's HS350BP pack holds 18 white plastic shims sized to slip behind a 3.5 inch door hinge leaf, correcting the gap that makes a door drag, stick or refuse to latch. It is a repair part, not a replacement hinge, and pairs with the hinge already mounted on the door or frame.
A sagging or misaligned interior door is usually a worn screw hole or a hinge mortise cut slightly too deep, not a bad hinge. Rather than pulling and replacing hardware, a shim fills that gap so the existing hinge sits flush again. This listing carries no seller description, so what you're buying is the shim itself: 18 pieces, white, sized for standard 3.5 inch residential hinges.
- 18 white plastic shims per pack
- Sized for 3.5 inch door hinges
- Made in the United States
- Weighs 0.1 lb
Who it's for
Homeowners and handypeople dealing with a door that drags on the frame, will not latch, or has developed a visible gap at the top or bottom, where the hinge itself is fine but its seating is not. Not for anyone whose hinge is broken, rusted through or the wrong size.
Pros and cons
- Fixes a sagging door without new hardware
- Fits standard 3.5 inch hinges
- 18 count covers several doors or hinges
- Small and light, easy to keep on hand
- Only sized for 3.5 inch hinges
- Won't help if the hinge itself is worn out
Performance notes
The shim slides behind the hinge leaf, between it and the door or jamb, adding thickness that pushes the leaf back out to where it should sit. It is a mechanical fix rather than a fastener, and a badly worn mortise may need more than one shim stacked to fully correct.

Frequently asked questions
What size hinge does the E-Z Shim fit?
It's sized for standard 3.5 inch door hinges, the size used on most interior doors.
How many shims does one hinge need?
That depends on how far out of alignment the door is; start with one and add a second if the gap remains.
Does this replace the hinge?
No, it's a shim that sits behind the existing hinge leaf to correct sag or gap, not a hinge itself.
