I want to fix a cabin hook to an external door so it can be held open securely and won't flap in the wind. The door is made of aluminium and is presumably hollow.
What does the panel recommend? I'm thinking some kind of spring toggle arrangement, like you use in plasterboard walls, but would that mean drilling a big hole in the door frame? I could potentially remove the locking mechanism to gain access to the inside of the frame, but I'm concerned I might find a complicated arrangement of pingfuckits inside...
Or should I glue it to the door frame rather than drilling? What kind of glue would be strong enough? Also, would I need to remove the paint and glue it to the bare metal, or would it be ok to glue it to the painted surface?
