The rail that houses the latch mechanism on one of my panels has detached for the second time. It came off after about 3 years of use and I repaired it with construction adhesive and some sheet metal screws. That lasted about 2 years. It's not the end of the world if I repair it the same way and get 2 more years before I have to fix it again, but I'm having to put holes in it each time and would like to minimize that.
Can y'all suggest an anchoring fastener that would expand inside the panel and hold this together better. The sheet metal screws probably didn't hold very well at all and the glue probably kept it together.
This is one of the rails that is still properly attached.
