I don't think I understood exactly how you were using the t-nuts (hurricane nuts).Are you putting one t-nut on the back of the furring strip AND one t-nut on the back of the panel? If so -- no, no no! Just one t-nut per mounting hole, on the back of the furring strip. Assuming a 1/4" bolt, you drill a 1/4" clearance hole through the panel and a 5/16" hole through the furring strip. Drop the bolt thought the panel and thread it into the single t-nut. The panel will tighten down nicely.

Bob
