Hinge Kit

I used this on one 13 awhile back and it did get the hinges back in shape. Are the hinges the cause of ur door sag as there are many reasons that can cause that?

Check Structure

You need to verify that you have the floor to ceiling closet, the support between the bottom kitchen cabinets to the top cabinets(usually 70's wrought iron), and an aluminum tube alongside the door on the front side. All three of these items are structural and necessary to prevent roof/door sag. Sometimes owners remove some of these inadvertently.
