The integrity of the hinge can be verified by gently pushing up/down and fore/aft at each hinge post. Lubrication can be done by sticking spray-lube tube under the Mylar at each hinge.

I do the same except use a small hypodermic needle to put a small drop of oil in the hinge. Less messy than spray lube for most people.
