Abstract
A door hinge system and door assembly allow a door in a wood veneer dryer to be pulled directly away from its associated door frame before being allowed to swing open in the normal fashion, thus reducing wear on the seal between the door and the door frame. The door assembly allows the tightness of the door to be easily adjusted without the need for shims, and allows the tightness to be adjusted even when the dryer is in operation.
