x Hollow Door Regular Duty Double Fixing Hook for use in Hollow Doors, Thin Skin Partitions, Plywood and Fibreglass. In most cases if you are hanging heavy items, unless the fixing is supported from below as in the hook diagram above, the weight of the item will eventually cause the fixing to drop. Once level, use a screw or other thin pointed object to mark through the fixing holes on the hanging rail to show where you need to drill your fixing holes. This is not a problem at Bernards Door Furniture Direct who sell a unique type of back to back fitting . Put the rail to one side and then pop the drill bit that comes with the fixings into a drill and drill out the two holes.Next, measure and mark both the centre of the door where you want your batten fixed and also the batten itself. When it comes to actual physical fixings, these are the best fixings DIY Doctor have found for this job.

Fixing to Hollow Doors | DIY Doctor

Lay your piece of batten face down and apply several thin beads of construction adhesive across the face of the timber.

If there aren’t any holes already in the hanging rail you will need to measure and mark centre points and then drill them out. Insert a piece behind the existing - but a longer piece so you can drill and fix it above and below where the hinge is located. Hollow doors have a thin stile for the hinges and a thin stile with a block of wood for the lock on the opposite side.

I really like some of your ideas and will give them a go (and then will probably have to get a new door) Ha ha ha! Firstly, cut your batten to the correct length for your needs and then sand off the rough cut edge so it’s nice and smooth.Successfully fixing to a hollow door has always been a tricky job as there isn’t really much to actually fix to as the actual fixing area is very thin.
