Kitchen cabinet door had fallen off and I have tried to repair but is still lose and now wonky

Anonymous user 23 October 2019 - 7.35 AM

A few weeks ago our kitchen cabinet door fell off and took part of the cabinet with it causing a hole. I have filled the hole with wood filler and tried reattaching the door, this hasn’t worked. The door is still lose and is now wonky and has dropped. Is there anything anyone can recommend to help me?

If you looking to repair it rather than replace it you could give (repair care wood filler) it’s a two part filler that goes off solid and is available in most builders merchants

Very simple solution to this.....go to screwfix and ask for a hinge repair plate....kitchen door hinge obviously....they will give you the goods and then fit to old holes as best as can and then screw the hinge to the new plate....plate has multiple fixing points...john....JHN carpentry

The hindges can be moved using a hinge sink bit there by creating a far better and non loose refitting of door this is a 35 mm hinge sink and cover caps can be used to cover the old sink holes on inside of door
