I found a squeaky door so I got the oil and fixed it… Then did every door I could before my wife caught me.

Am I alone here? It’s so satisfying to just glide open!

Edit: She followed up with: “you’re enjoying yourself too much”
Damn straight I am. It’s the little things you have to enjoy!

    For lack of alternatives on hand, I used some bicycle chain lube to fix a squeaky door. Worked wonders, actually.

      I did this about two years ago and every door in my house is still completely silent, absolute game changer for not waking up my kid in the middle of the night.

      I used the same. Has a strong odor at first, but works exactly the same. I argue it’s better since chain link oil should be able to weather more abuse.
