Peter Millard Hi Peter, Better to use the depth stop when you drill out the dowel as well? Mike

Had a corner cabinet door in my kitchen fall off last week. Ordered the hinge plates, which arrived on Friday, and installed today. Feels even stronger than when it was screwed directly into the wood. Thanks for the instructional video sir!!!

I actually think the quick dirty way is a lot more durable. I would prefer to this method for home fix. Nice video, and thank you for sharing.

What a wonderfully well explained video. Simple and to the point. Thank you. I'll get onto that job I've been avoiding now. Think I'm going to be lazy & go for the second method.

exactly what happened to my old cabinet vanity door, in bath, circa 1975. I'll use the dowel method. THANKS, PERFECT!

You are a wealth of information Peter and a likeable chap. Thank you for all your input over the years👍🏻

Great video as usual, Been using them metal plates for ages but think I’ll step it up with dowels, loved the out takes

This has helped me loads as this happened to me this morning whilst making my morning brew, this will be my project for today thank you 😊

I've just repaired 2 wardrobe hinges - checked out your video as I was thinking of using dowels but then I read Jason B's post below (3rd method). I remembered I have a box of different sized threaded insert nuts (cheap on Amazon). It was so easy and clean - just a slight drill out of the hole, fit the insert nut and tighten with an allen key and then screw the hinge into it. No cutting or gluing - it took longer to get the tools from the garage than to do the job, brilliant!

Peter my darling you are the best!!! You saved my day , love you my DIY man 🤗

Thank you so much for this video! I was about to go and buy new wall cabinets for my council place. This is a much cheaper fix!

Fantastic Peter. Door dropped off yesterday. Used the first method, had all the right tools etc and done in about 4 minutes. I subscribed. Thanks

Hi Peter. As an avid follower of your channel I remember seeing this video some time ago and so when it came to having to repair some kitchen cupboards I followed your instructions and the repair on both cupboards was a breeze! I used the dowels to repair the hinges. It’s simple and perfect. Thank you so much. What a great tip! K

I watched this, brilliant, I knew the kitchen cupboard door needed attention, ordered some dowels from your below list and one of those flat saws. Went down to see how bad the damage was and the bloody door came off in my hands. Quick fix, used some masking tape on the drill to note the depth and also used a couple of rawl plugs as a temporary measure, solid as a rock now, will use your method in the New Year. Thankyou for putting this video up, really helped me, would probably be getting an ear-full from the wife if I had not watched this and been able to immediately fix. Have a good Christmas.

As someone who almost doesn't know the handle from the bangy bit of a hammer, I'm really impressed with this video. I saw a plate advertised on Twitter, but needed more detailed instructions. Thank you so much. I can feel a visit to a hardware store coming on in the near future.

Thanks so much, I'm feeling a lot more confident for this exact upcoming job.

Thanks for that Peter never even heard of the repair plates so that’s a bonus and something ‘learned today’ off my daily task.👍 I have used dowels before but have also had success using two part epoxy putty which goes off in less time than glue takes to dry.😀 The bloopers bear witness ( in small part) to the time taken in putting these videos together.

@@10MinuteWorkshop The snag with a conventional dowel is you are drilling and screwing into end-grain. It's far better to use a proper wooden plug.

Another 2 things I’ve learnt and damned usefull as I’m currently rehanging kitchen doors that have been abused by tenants, thanks

Quick n dirty method (Hafele hinge repair - screw fix) worked a treat for my larger cupboard door. Thank you for your professional demonstration.

I actually have one I need to fix on our kitchen sink unit. Used to have a bin in the back of the door so took extra load... Probably going to replace the existing one with a blum and use the dowel version! Thanks Peter

Great video, thanks for this content 👍🏻

Thanks for the video, was thinking dowels alright for a repair job on a large cabinet but thanks for tips on things I would have missed

Thanks very much for the very well explained video

Very helpful. Thanks mate.

Thanks. Repaired a cabinet door in our kitchenette at work. Used the plate method on Home Depot cheapy cupboards. Was easy peasy with my little cordless drill. Definitely toss original screws and use supplied screws though. Tried with original ones and that caused some confusion then I watched again and you clearly say use supplied screws 😁 Got plates off Amazon.ca 6 plates and screws for about $20.

Great video. Very useful

I keep a few varied diameters and lengths of vinyl and rubber hose in my tool box for emergencies , I've used them at times as drill stops. Cut the hose long so that one end rests against the chuck face while the drill bit end is cut for your desired depth.

Followed your instructions almost to the letter and surprised myself that it actually worked and I was able to re-fit the hinges and re-hang the door (vertical cupboard door.) I am not in anyway an expert at DIY so thanks for the tips. Now I have an almost full bottle of wood glue left that will probably go off now it has been exposed to air and a bag of 8mm dowels that I have no further use for. Oh well.

Very useful video. Now I know exactly what to do.

Thanks for the tips. I'm actually going to use this next week on a repair. ... I burst out laughing at the outakes! Thanks for the giggle!
