Reply to comment by DogRiverRoad in New hinges on old wardrobe hit frame when opening door. Do i need to chamfer them? by itg85

That is indeed true. The gap is very short. What bothers me is that with the old hinges this kinda of worked, with all of the new ones the door always does a little movement to the exterior (wall side) that collides with the "frame".

Adding to that nothing is actually squared, everything is bent in some way. Very poor workmanship.

It is not necessarily poor workmanship. Things may have settled or warped a little over time. It is just how wood and buildings are.
