I've got a few pieces of furniture that I obtained with some missing screws (a futon frame and a headboard). How do I determine from the object what size screws are necessary from the measurement of the hole itself? Also washer size. Are these standardized in such a way that the guy at HD can get it right from a trace of the hole? I know this is a silly question but I tried to buy one just by looking at it and they didn't fit. Thanks.
