UPVC Front Door Dropped - 20 years old?

Our front door has dropped. I have read the questions and answers but they do not seem to pin point our problem. We know we have to adjust the hinges but our type are old I think.

We have four hinges where there are no covers that come off. All they have is a silver bolt thing each end of hinge and tiny screw at top and bottom.

How would we adjust these?

Many thanks

hi ,you may have cam type pins in hinges 1top and 1 underneath. normally allen key on side of hinge to undo a bit for adjustment. undoe allen key bolts ,turn top and bottom bolts slowly in different direction see if the door goes the way u want it to. set it and do allen keys in side of hinge back up. otherwise u may have 2 toe and heal door if its badly out of line.
