I've got to change out my garage door this weekend. The #14 hex head screws that were in the original door have a coarse thread and real bite when tightened but anything I get at Menard's or Home Depot have a finer pitch thread and strip very easy. Measured the root diameter for appropriate drill ever undersized it and still couldn't get them to tighten like the originals. Went so far as to not even drilling a pilot hole same results. Not a big fan of self drilling or "Tech" screws. Are wood lag bolts the same as sheet metal bolts?
Thanks, Glenn.
