In order to remove the livingroom sofa/bed from the RV, I had to completely take the side door off.
Here is a photo of the screws that held the door on.
I am amazed that such short screws held the door in good to the frame.
There were a total of 6 hinges going the length of the door with each hinge having 3 of these screws.

I reinstalled the screws into the hinges and they do not screw nicely in the holes onto the frame. Every single one of them spins in place loosely.
I tried replacing all the screws but unfortunately with the same results.
I went back to the hardware store and bought the same size screws (#8) but longer. I also purchased the next size up (#10) that are the same length. I have not tried installing either of these new screws yet. Am I doomed because of a different issue than getting the right screws? Do I need a special type of screw? Should I suspect the frame?
Because of the loose screws, my door hangs off-kilter & will not shut.
Help!
