The lower hinge on a base cabinet has torn out of the box side. It’s a Blum hinge and the box is made of particle board covered with melamine. I’m trying to avoid relocating the hinge. Thought of bolting through but the diswasher is next to this cabinet so no easy access to the outside. Tried epoxying a plastic anchor in the hole but it didn’t hold (at least on the first attempt). Looked at the Rockler website to see if some sort of anchor comes with the Blum hinge but didn’t see anything. Any suggestions on what or how to fill the hole for a good grip for the mounting screw?
Thanks,
Don
