Previously I’ve lubricated plenty of door hinges by popping out the pin, putting a bit of petroleum jelly, and hammering out back in. This door goes to our garage, tho, and it seems to have different looking hinges.

I’m curious what’s the best course of action. Is there a pin that can be easily removed like most interior doors, or do I need to do something different?

Thanks in advance to this new community!

    As jrbaconcheese said, penetrating oil is likely a solvent, designed to clean stuck joints rather than add lubricant. The greases are pretty good, however it may be difficult to work it into the hinge without disassembling it. PTFE sprays come with the nozzle though and are very thin liquids, so you might have better luck getting them in just by aiming in the gaps and working the hinge.
