<p>A door (10) having a core (32) made from a composite panel material such as medium density fiberboard or particleboard is provided with a plurality of dowels (36) which are secured, such as by an adhesive, within openings (38) extending into the core (32). The dowels (36) and the openings (38) are positioned in alignment with the screw holes (40) in the hinges (26) which mount the door (10) to a jamb (28) or cabinet. Screws (44) or other fasteners extend through the screw openings (40) in the hinges (26) and are secured within the dowels (36). The dowels (36) permit conventional wood screws (44) to be used to mount the hinges (26) to the door (10) and improve the screw holding capability of the door (10). The dowels (36) also eliminate the need to use edge banding for screw holding purposes and thereby eliminate the problems associated with the joint formed between the edge banding and the core material.</p> |
