oh crap raena! good luck with the repairs. rowan opens and closes doors

compulsively. while in a room door must be closed. empty rooms a must have

doors open. sliding doors are a particular favourite - he pretends they are

elevators and pushes imaginary buttons. he is elevator obsessed - that's a

whole other story!

Don't you just love it? In our house, all open doors must be

closed. All closed doors must be open. Here and there, runs

over to a door to just open-close-open-close...drives Mark nuts. The

French doors from the office are in the garage...now we will add the

aforementioned pantry doors.

Mark is at Home Depot even as we speak...getting an accordian door

(the lightweight one, he informed me...so that when pulls it

down he won't hurt himself). <sigh>

Yuck, Raena. had a door-slamming compulsion;

we took the door off his room and his sister's room

and put them in the basement for several months. They

just recently went back on. For the closets we're

thinking or replacing the doors with sliding doors.

Hope your repairs are fast, easy and inexpensive.

The dowels and wood glue are a good way to repair the stripped

particle board holes. I am presuming you got instructions on that?

The other thing I would look at doing is replacing all the hinges on

the door with a piano hinge. MUCH MUCH sturdier and distributes the

weight and force. They are not that terribly expensive and better

than a new door.

Good luck.

Sliding doors have been a major problem for us. and both

like to push against them until they break out of the little thing

that holds them in place at the bottom. I am SOOOOOOOOOOO tired of

having to put 's back on her closet, it's not funny.

We have no sliding doors in the main floors of this house.

I do not miss them.

I do not miss rehanging the doors on mangled tracks.

I do not miss replacing broken plastic track guides.

I do not miss cleaning out metal track rails.

I do not miss sliding doors crashing back and forth.

I do not miss them Sam I am.
