Laptop hinges and plastic mounts break when the lid is forced or the laptop is dropped. A loose hinge puts stress on the screen and casing, so repair it promptly. Replacement hinges, casings and palm rests exist for many popular models; match your exact model and have it fitted carefully. If the damage has spread to the screen or board, compare repair costs with replacing the laptop.
Key takeaways
- Fix a loose hinge before it cracks the casing.
