subject says all... the "good" hardware store closed up shop. Do True
Value, Ace, etc. carry them, or am I reduced to ordering from
McMaster-Carr? see p/n 93482A691 at www.mcmaster.com for example. The
bracket for the closer has ripped off my screen/storm door again and
this is the only thing I can think of that might provide a permanent repair.

It would have been nice to just post the url but I'll help anyway.

I had some aluminum slugs that were oblong and pop riveted that to the door and
then riveted the bracket to the slug. Better than new. No screws to come
loose. I also thought about using an EMT oblong box cover to accomplish the
same thing but being a cheap *** I used what I had. You may just be able to
rivet the bracket to the door; avoid screws they are what loosen and cause the
problems. The nutsetters also need a tool that can be quite expensive.
