One of our kitchen cupboard doors has come off - the screws that hold in the bracket to the carcass have come out, and the screwhole has enlarged so the screw doesn't have anything to hold to (It's a chipboard based carcass)

What is the best way of filling in the screwhole so the bracket can be screwed in again?

Cheers

The cupboard is sandwiched in between others so can't get to the other side, but thats quite a good idea - I could drill through both cabinets and put a nut and bolt through it. Would that cause any problems?

Thanks Chaps!

Let me try the matchsticks/glue option tonight and if I really mess it up i'll use those brackets.
