How Do I Fix Or Glue Broken Laptop Hinge? by Elxandre(m): 12:44pm On Sep 04, 2016
My brother's Laptop got one of it's hinge broken.
He tried to make a makeshift bolting technique to screw it down, all to no avail.
Shops around here can't help with a spare part, and I can't think of a glue to nail it together.

Any ideas?
Is there any glue tough enough to hold the hinge to the laptop body.
Or is a case replacement possible, because I couldn't find where I live.

Attached are pictures of the situation to give clearer understanding.

It's an HP Compaq cq57

there are two options available to you.

The best one is to go for another casing. The second one is to work the hinges on your old casing which can be done by someone who specialise in doing it. I know someone in computer village Ikeja who can help you. But if you want to go for another casing and you are in Lagos, whatsapp or call me. my number is on my signature.

It should look like this, else the back case will break again.

If that hinge is sold in computer village, i think he should get it and the back case. But the thing is this things have part numbers, so i don't know if it'll be common to buy.

if I get you.... the hinges and the back casing are both broken....then you just need to get a new back casing as well as the broken hinges . The other and better option would have been getting a complete casing which would cost you more. But depending on your system, you can get the back casing and the broken hinges only and then get it fixed by an engineer for you.

Please do you have an idea of its cost?

I was wondering if there is any glue tough enough to get it attached temporarily till I get a casing fix?

It's not necessary, as far as one hinges is still standing, it will hold the screen, the other broken one can be work on.. Just to make it hold the down carcass and the head..

You can get the broken hinges (one or both) and I'll help you work it ( that's if you don't have money for carcass) .


If you're in lag, we can meet at computer village tomorrow..
