Doors – How to fix a Ikea Kallax shelf door

I have an Ikea Kallax bookshelf which has these insert doors. I bumped the door and ripped it off.

What would be a good way to fix it?

It looks like this happened before 😅

Is there some kind of putty I should try to stuff in the holes. Basically once busted out the cheap Ikea particle board is stripped and the screws have nothing to grab on. Should I take the door off and then use glue with some kind of clamp until it dries? Is the some other solution I should consider?

I would first remove the door from its support panel.

Then screw and glue the panel to the side, locating it correctly and clamp it into place. Either use G-clamps or even make some wedges.

Once properly dry refit the door.
