Main door hinge

Bottom hinge on door is loose making for sag an all around pain. Looks simple enough to tighten the nuts holding the hinge to trailer. Access is the question and not sure if from inside our outside to get too. I pulled interior trim off only to find skin riveted. Appreciate any suggestions....

Main door hinge

Per back the 4” plastic chrome trim on the hinge and tighten from the outside using a #4 pozi-drive.

I have to tighten mine from time to time....

No problem. A # 3 pozi drive should work as well.
