Props for the “oops” shot of you blowing out the far side. That was just outstanding!
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.
Great video as usual, Been using them metal plates for ages but think I’ll step it up with dowels, loved the out takes
You are a wealth of information Peter and a likeable chap. Thank you for all your input over the years👍🏻
Peter my darling you are the best!!! You saved my day , love you my DIY man 🤗
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 😊
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.
Now that is a very useful video. Perfect for my old kitchen units that I’m going to upgrade, repair and repurpose for the workshop! Thanks Peter.
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.
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
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!
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!
Thanks so much, I'm feeling a lot more confident for this exact upcoming job.
Hi Peter, just wanted to thank you. I watched this at the time, but didn't need it. Now I need it, I watched it again - perfect solution!
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
Amazing video, professionally explained, keep up the good work, many thanks
Thank you for this clear and instructive lesson.

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