Hi all!
First post after searching these knowledgeable forums for a solution to my issues.
I have a pair of French doors that were left flapping about in the wind. The bottom hinge (of 3) of the main door pair was ripped from its fitting. Whilst the hinge and all but 1 of the screws were undamaged, I screw the hinge back in as the screw holes are now too big to thread.
I'm guessing that the best way to repair is to fill the holes, sand down and re-fit the hinge into the same screw locations. Can anyone recommend a uPVC filler/glue/substance that can be drilled and secure enough to refit the hinge or any other methods that I can use please?
Ive uploaded a pic if it helps!
Thanks in advance guys!
