    Garage Door Opener Draw Bar
    A few months ago my garage door got caught on my car and long story, the draw bar of the electric opener partially came off. My dad came over and drilled several bolts through it back into the garage door. They came off yesterday. Is there a good/easy way to re-attach this drawbar? My house is about 4 years old, I think the garage door is made of fiberglass or something light. I was considering gorilla glueing it, someone else has suggested using molly bolts. Please help! Thanks!

    Did he use big washer on the outside of the door; some bolts have its own washer, to spread the load, if the washer idea failed try a metal plate with construction adhesive
