Screws for drip pan?

[thrstyunderwater]

Ive got a buddy that has alot of experience working with fridge units that's going to make sure I don't pierce the cooling coils while I put this on. That said I need to get 3 screws. Any recommendations?

Lowes/HomeDepot have stainless screws. That's what I would go with.

Rivets....

They barely break the surface and are study as hell.

Or glue super magnets to the back...

What are you actually going to attach this to?

Cheers!

I would never even take the chance of drilling into my keezer, even if someone had experience drilling into freezers. Get these magnets and that way you can take the drip tray off and clean it out, they tend to get ugly after a while. Screwing and unscrewing from the keezer you could wear out the holes. But this is just my two cents, you can do whatever you think is best for your system.

I just mounted a similar drip tray and I used a 3/8" thick piece of wood that I countersunk screw holes in the back of, super glued screws into the holes and then attached to the front with construction adhesive leaving the threads exposed. I can now slide the drip tray on and off and use wing nuts to make it easy to remove. A different approach- I just posted pics last night under 5 cu ft keezer build in this forum section. Good luck with whatever you do-

not all stainless screws at the big stores are 100% stainless. Some have a stainless coating on them, there was a guy on HBT a few months ago that found that out the hardway. He bought the little baggies with "STAINLESS" printed in yellow from you-know-where and they rusted out quick on the top of his kegerator. Got rust all over his tower too.

I ended up going with stainless screws. Looks pretty good if you ask me.
