I have a Philco 111 Hi-Boy cabinet with doors that needs restoring. Does anyone know how to remove the tear drop type door pulls from the doors of this cabinet?. Were the pulls installed with threaded screws inserted from the back of the door and then veneer installed over the rear of the door thereby hiding the heads of the screws? I'm almost certain the door pulls do not screw into the door panel but are held in place by regular machine screws. The problem is : How do I access the heads of these screws? Any help is welcome and most appreciated. Thanks .
