#Help: DIY Help Needed - Kitchen Cupboard Door Broken: (

Discombobulate Well-known Member

Help needed.

My youngest son decided to use one of the kitchen cupboard doors as a swing.

As a result it came off.

This is an open swinging door below the sink to give you an idea of what type of door it is.

Unfortunately the hinge has come out taking the screws with it.

I can t screw the thing back in as there isn t enough wood left in the side panel to hold the screw.

I can t move the hinge as this would involve cutting a new circular hole in the back of the door (which sounds like a nightmare).

I was thinking of plugging the hole in the side panel with some polyfilla or something more substantial, letting it dry and then re-screwing the door in.

Any advice appreciated.

Let me know if the above doesn t make sense or you need more info.
