Break the tops off your matches, we needed 3.
Take your door off both hinges. Lay it on it’s side, with the ripped holes facing up.
Pour some wood glue into each hole and place your broken match sticks in. They will need to dry over night, just to make sure the match stick stays for good.
Once the glue is dry, break off the sticking out wood with your fingers. Now your door is ready to be screwed back in. The match makes it a tight hole again and the screw will stay in, well at least for another 500 openings or so. We’ve actually done this twice now, on two different doors, so we know it works great! Thanks, Nan!
