Hi all,

I've attached the door cards to the door but getting the top innermost clip to stay in place is proving difficult due to the curvature of the door. Any tips for getting this to stay in place without having to use screw/cup fixing ?

Regards,

Try expanding the flexible part of the clip . It is easiest to do this if you slide the clip off the door card and do it on the bench

I found the best way to follow the curve of the door was to score the back of the card with a Stanley knife. Carefully cut a groove, following the line where the door curves round . This has the effect of breaking the back of the card and making it much easier to follow the door contour and at the same time reducing the tension on the clips.
A PO had overcome this by putting a screw through the panel to hold it in place- not the best solution in the world.
