## How to Plug Drill Holes in Laminate Cabinet Doors

Laminate cabinet doors are a popular choice for kitchens and bathrooms because they are durable and affordable. However, if you need to drill a hole in a laminate cabinet door, it is important to plug the hole to prevent moisture from seeping in and damaging the cabinet door.

There are a few different ways to plug drill holes in laminate cabinet doors, but the most common method is to use a wooden dowel.

Materials:

- Wooden dowel (same diameter as the drill hole)

- Wood glue

- Utility knife

- Sandpaper

Instructions:

1. Cut the wooden dowel to a length that is about 1/4 inch longer than the depth of the drill hole.

2. Apply a small amount of wood glue to the end of the dowel.

3. Insert the dowel into the drill hole.

4. Tap the dowel into place with a hammer until it is flush with the surface of the cabinet door.

5. Use a utility knife to trim any excess dowel that may be sticking out.

6. Sand the dowel smooth until it is flush with the surface of the cabinet door.

7. Allow the wood glue to dry completely before using the cabinet door.

By following these instructions, you can easily plug drill holes in laminate cabinet doors and prevent moisture from seeping in and damaging the cabinet door.
