Now I was advised in the shop that I could use self taping screws and that I had to drill a hole first in the metal panel. The screws are 3 mm wide and the drill is 3mm wide as well. Now the problem is that the screws are going in just a little bit but then I'm unable to screw further. The screws are meant to be used with metal. They went perfectly through my sliding door. I must say that the metal is thiner then the metal of my backdoor. Has anybody an idea of what the problem could be? Wrong screws maybe? Black on light wood does look good.
