Hinge repair on the Dell Inspiron 5160
The Dell Inspiron 5160 uses a pair of hinges bolted into the base and lid. When a mount breaks, we rebuild it rather than just fitting new hinges, so the problem doesn't come back.
Parts for a model of this age can be hard to find; we use tested replacements and tell you before ordering.
What we do
We replace the hinges, rebuild broken mounting points, and replace cracked casing panels where parts are available.
