Hi, I’m looking for advice on how to repair screw holes for hinges. I have several hinges where the screws are coming out. Anyone got a product recommendation for this?

Insert a toothpick into hole with sealant (not adhesive).

If too large, overdrill the hole, fill with Locketite Marine epoxy, let cure, then redrill and insert screw.
