The door is the type below, where there are glass inserts on either side of the door. The screws that were in there were about as long as I could find without punching through to the other side where the glass is.

Take the screws out, fill the hole with a good quality wood glue, cram it full of toothpicks and snip the ends flush. Let it cure and pop the plate and screws back in.
