If you are looking for the strongest fixing point possible then the best solution is to attach a batten onto the door and then use this to attach your hooks, hangers or other objects. The batten can be painted to match the decoration of the room. Next, measure and mark both the centre of the door where you want your batten fixed and also the batten itself.Allow 24 hours for the construction adhesive to fully dry and you can then remove the screws and fill the holes over before painting. Lay your piece of batten face down and apply several thin beads of construction adhesive across the face of the timber. In terms of fixing the batten to the door you have two choices; use the same hollow door fixings mentioned above or glue the batten in place using one of the many construction adhesives available today.
