Default Screw snapped on inside shelf bracket
Brand: Inglis
Model Number: IGT228301
Age: 5 - 10 years

The shelves of my fridge are inserted into three metal brackets at the back of the fridge. The screw at the top of the middle bracket has broken. Part of the screw remains in the inside back of the fridge. The back of the fridge on the outside is completely sealed so I cannot remove the screw to attempt to put a new screw in. I cannot push the old screw out. Any suggestions on how to secure the bracket so I can use my shelves?

You will need to use what is called an easy out.

You will find them at a hardware store.
