Door handle of Room 29 is wobbly #1606

The outer door handle could do with tightening (I assume that's what would fix it). Feels like it will fall off before too long.

The handle is still held relatively securely at present, but some of the grub screws that hold the handle on are missing because the threads in the aluminium handle are stripped.

We need to redrill the holes to a larger size, re-tap them to an appropriate thread size and install new grub screws to resolve this issue.

I will endeavor to bring in a set of larger taps to check the sizes needed, order some new grub screws then drill, tap and fit the new screws to fix this handle more permanently.

I come to Jelly once a month and brought some grub screws in today in the hope of fixing this. I should have read this first, yes - the threads are stripped.
