welcome to the site.Is the door dropping because of play in the hinges or does the door simply need to be adjusted?Have someone look at the hinges as you move the door up and down with the door open to determine if there is play in the hinges.

If there is play in the hinges, you can either have them rebuilt or most resto parts houses sell a kit with a drill bit and oversized hinge pin to redo them yourself

What about just grinding the elongated hinge bolt mounting holes in the door wider, if they are at the end of their travel? Would that be easier than rebuilding the hinges to correct a door sag?
