How to Fix a Hole in a Hollow Door

I made this video showing you how I fixed a hole I had in our bathroom door. The process I used has a few steps, but it was not hard to complete.
I am sure there are other ways to fix a hole in a door, but this worked for me.

We just followed your instructions and it worked perfectly. A little foam goes a long way!

[constanza]

Thank you, from Inverness, Scotland. Great video. Just what I needed!

[jjo]

This is great info to file away for 'when;' we know its not an 'if' it happens! lol Thanks! : )

[demonmyshira]

Thank you! Put a hole in a door this morning and having to fix it now, lol!

[ToddCarpenterToddPCWV]

Why bother filling the hole if you were planning on covering it with a wall protection plate?

[wallacesheckells]

That's a nifty little idea! Thanks for sharing it my friend.

[Nzebracakes]

If the hole is considerably bigger (shoe size, for instance), would you recommend the same filling process?

[menace]

Thank you for this. I had the same hole in the same spot

[waggener]

Lol I was going to do all this work which was very well done btw. Then you said you put a wall guard on the door and now I’m just going to do that.

[raulgutierrez]

Mix little bondo put it on wait 5 mins use the sander done deal and clean job👍!!

[TheLightHouseLady]

Very helpful! Like the wall guard idea.

[scrappinrabbit]

Hmmm how solid is that wall guard? Can I just place it over the area where the hole is instead of filling the hole?

[TheSuey]

what are you using for "filler"? spackle??

[bradjones]

If the hole is from a door stop just put the wall guard over the hole. Covered the repair anyways.... done!

[mralekito]

Thank you. Very handy tips. The hole I have is much bigger. Will this approach work as well?

[tammyalvarez]

This is actually a very useful idea in my house 🤦😂

[DanBrazil-brazilianx]

Was any of that effort really worth it once you put the door guard on?

[los]

Thank you. I figured I’d have to do something like this. The step I didn’t figure was the cardboard step. I thought I’d need a gross of the expanding foam.

[FarsiAutismAware]

Thanks for the video, what is the name of the foam? what type of foam should I purchse ?

[ruthbat-leah]

Is it absolutely necessary to take it off its hinges? I have 16.8m2 of space and it's a really massive door...
