1) Make 3 configurations of the hinge assembly. (flex 1, flex 2, flex 3)
2) Make sure the hinge assembly IS flexible.
3) Set each hinge assembly in the upper level assembly to a different flex configuration.
That's the easiest way I have found to deal with simulating moving hinges.

Zcsaba,
Hello and welcome to the forum.
Sub-assemblies brought into another assembly will be fixed. RMB on your sub-assembly in the FeatureManager Tree and go to Properties and choose "make assembly flexible". I am at home and don't have SW here so am not sure about the exact wording. You can also do a search here on flexible sub-assemblies.

In the door assembly select the hinge assembly with your right mouse button from the feature manager, select "Component Properties" and set "Solve As" to flexible.

Right Click on the Fixed Bolt and "Fix" it. this will anchor your assembly around the bolt.
Then remove your 3 coincident plane mates of the first hinge sheet (coincident 13, 14, 19)
