A pal of mine likes to remind people "WD40 is a solvent, not a lubricant".
As such, it might be a nice step 1 to help clean the hinge. I know it
cleans
grungy areas of my cycle well.

For step 2, I've used "no-flyoff" motorcycle chain lube. It sprays on,
penetrates, and then kind of gels. Otherwise some kind of lock lube with
graphite in it might be nice.

I knew a secretary whose typewriter was squeaking on certain keys, and
they
asked maintenance what to lube it with... the guy opened the cover and a
mouse ran out... really!
