I have (had?) a very heavy, poorly-installed, poorly-repaired-by-prior-owners, exterior door going into my garage, they'd already stripped any semblance of a proper screw out, including 3" #12 screws (with one snapped off about an inch in), making my life hard. Replacing the whole frame, all the trim, the painting (I frickin' hate painting) was absolutely soul crushing to think about. I found this product, it worked like an absolute charm. Very good, very easy, hard to find these days. Bag comes with everything you need- the right sized pilot hole bit, the torx bit, all you need is a decent drill. As others have mentioned, the supplied door screws are self-tappers, so if you cross thread them, they'll do what you ask and cut through anything and bugger things up for you. However, I also don't see why you couldn't just back out the big screw that the little self-tappers go into, and start over. Either way, these are expensive, but worth their literal weight in gold when you factor in everything that would go into replacing the whole jamb, weather stripping, all the trim, the painting (I frickin' hate painting), and your general sanity.

Used on my French doors. Sturdy. Great. Easy-Peasy works as advertised

This is my second time ordering these for door in my home. They are brilliant. Yes, they are not cheap but they come with everything one needs, provided you own a drill, and do EXACTLY what you need. It could not be easier to install.I was surprised to read the negative reviews on these as they work so well. I read through a few of them and almost all were user error related. The brass inserts are internally threaded to except the provide (be them standard) hinge screws. They went in super smooth and hold tight.I installed these on a basement door that has a wall that only allows it to open just past 90 degrees. People often swing it open and the force of it slamming into the door stop, pulled out the hinges. Tried several fixes but it was only these that have worked, and lasted. Those were installed several years ago and still holding up perfectly. Just installed a second set in a door where the hinges let go.

Works great on hollow doors. With permanent repair.

The inserts do work as intended. Seating deep enough to hit framing inside door frame. I did not rate higher because I feel the cost is too high, partially driven by the fact you can’t buy the inserts only. They’re all packaged in kits with 2 driver bits and a drill bit. Once you have a kit, or in most cases folks have these tools, you shouldn’t have to keep re-buying them when you need inserts; very wasteful.

The screws on the upper hinge to my front door had stripped, causing my door to sag and rub on the door frame. This also caused my dead bolt to be misaligned and not secure properly. I followed the simple instructions. It literally took me 5 minutes to install, and completely solved all my door issues. Quality hardware. Everything you need is included except the drill and screwdriver. I totally recommend this product for stripped hinge screws.

This is a quick, inexpensive fix for stripped hinges. It comes with everything you need besides the drill. It only took about 15 minutes to go from broken door to good as new.

The ZZem Screw Door Repair is a brilliant piece of engineering that just works. The product is solid and well thought through. Everything is supplied but a power drill. Accepts #9 hinge screws as the manufacturer states. It literally takes only minutes to install. For me, the result is a door that now closes properly.I want to say something about the price as I see some people seem to expect this to cost less. It may appear to be simple, but it takes quite an investment to produce a well-designed product such as this and be able to supply it for this price. If you want to pay less, I'm sure someone in another country will eventually produce a knockoff using pot metal that will eventually break after installed. In contrast, the ZZem insert is solid brass which I expect will last long after I'm gone.

Worked great - only took me a few minutes to install. Highly recommend.

Why didn’t I find these before!!! Easy to use and do exactly as described superb item thank you

The easiest solution to fix a loose door hinge screw in a jiffy!!!It might be expensive but it's worth every penny.

Having spotted these at the National Hardware show Las Vegas 2021 am thrilled to be able to purchase Zzem Screws in UK Excellent quality - the perfect solution if your hinge screws are turning & turning and the door has worked its way loose.I used to use gorilla glue & match sticks or cocktail sticks which sort of worked but was never that strong.Zzem screws come complete with all you needExcept the cordless drill 🙌You use the supplied drill bit to make the old screw hole bigger, then use the supplied Hex bit to drive the Zzem screw into the new hole using a cordlessThe Zzem screw cuts a tight thread into the holeMake sure its flush with the frame behind where the hinge sitsLastly use the supplied no 2 Phillips screwdriver bit & screw to secure the hinge to the frameCheck the depth of the door frame & if required trim the Zzem screws after first establishing how thick it is.Ive never had such a strong fixHighly recommend

These screw sets prevent my heavy metal door from being unhinged. They anchored pretty deep in the wooden door jamb!
