"bisagras" in stories (1 sentence)

—Ok… Eso no suena nada peligroso —dice Jay, justo cuando la puerta sale disparada de las bisagras: ¡KRAAASH.
“Ok… That doesn’t sound dangerous at all,” says Jay, just as the door flies off its hinges: KRAAASH.
Grammar: The phrase «no suena nada peligroso» uses «nada» as an intensifier with a negative verb (no suena) to mean “not at all” rather than literally “nothing,” and «justo cuando» introduces an action happening at exactly the same moment as another.
Eso no parece nada raro.
Justo cuando llegamos, empezó a llover.
