Best Answer

Screws and nails work from the material behind the top layer, e.g. the inside of a door or wall. So regular screws and nails will not hold when the inside is hollow. However, you can buy special screws with a stabilizer at the end so they have something to 'hold' the screw into and against the door.

Can you hang a towel bar behind the door of a bathroom?

Sure, but make sure that there is protection for the wall behind it, so that the bar does not accidentally punch through the wall. However, if the door is a hollow door, I am not sure how much weight it will hold or how you would put in anchors, since the wood is not very thick. There was a towel bar on the wall behind a door in one house that I lived in and it worked okay.

How do you put a window in a hollow core door?

to attach to a hollow core door you need what is known as a dry wall or gyp-rock anchor. all depending on what country you live in. these are made to screw into surfaces up to about 15 millimeters thick and hold into them. Do yourself a favour and don'r bother trying to hang it. it would be a waist of otherwise good fittings. The best thing you can do with the door is to build a bonefire, but let let me know where you live because I'm freezing here in the U.K.

Is there a way to quickly soundproof a door?

1. Hang the door. Most interior doors are hollow core and don't stop sound. If you rent and the landlord doesn't want to change the door, ask if you can change the door while you live there and then re-hang the original door when you move out. 2. Replace the door with a medium-density fiberboard door. They are not expensive and they do stop a lot of sound. There are also special sound-proof doors on the market. 3. Create a better door seal. Attach a metal door sweep at the bottom of the door. It not only keeps the cold out, but it blocks noise as well. Set the sweep to just barely brush the floor as it closes. Also put foam seals around the doorjambs. 4. Hang a specially made sound-proof doormat over the existing door. This works best if the door is flat. Depending on the doormat you choose, you can attach it with adhesive or peel-and-stick backing. 5. Look behind the molding in the frame of the door. If there is no insulation or filler there, then it's not sound proof either. There are sound-proofing caulks available to use in spaces such as this. 6. If possible, hang two doors from the same doorjamb. This pocket of air between them creates a dead space that sound proofs your door.
